Rangappa vs Sri Mohan on 7 May, 2010
Further in Rangappa v. Sri Mohan, (2010) 11 SCC 441, the Hon'ble Supreme
Court has held that the presumptions under Sections 118(a) and 139 of the NI Act are
rebuttable in nature and for rebuttal of the same accused need not even step into the witness
box as he can rebut the same by placing reliance on the material brought on record by the
complainant. It is also a well settled legal position that the presumptions can be rebutted
even by raising presumptions of fact and law on the basis of material available on record. It
is further well settled that the standard required from the accused to prove his defence is
preponderance of probabilities and accused need not prove his defence beyond reasonable
doubts.
