Rajasthan Pharmaceutical Laboratory, ... vs State Of Karnataka on 14 January, 1981

Again in M/s Rajasthan Pharmaceutical Laboratory Bangalore and others vs. State of Karnataka [AIR 1981 SC 809] this Court pointed out that a sentence of imprisonment is compulsory under Section 27 (b)(ii) of the Act. But in view of the proviso to the Section (as quoted above) it cannot be said that the Court has no jurisdiction to reduce the sentence of imprisonment below the period of six months. If the conditions specified in the proviso are present, the Court has the power to reduce the sentence even further down. For that there must be adequate and special reasons and such reasons should be recorded in the judgment and there shall still be a term of imprisonment and fine in the reduced sentence.
