S.W. Palanitkar And Ors vs State Of Bihar And Anr on 18 October, 2001
In the case of S.W. Palanitkar And Ors vs State Of
Bihar And Anr, AIR 2001 SC 2960, it has been held that in
order to constitute an offence of cheating, the intention to
deceive should be in existence at the time when the
inducement was made. It is necessary to show that a
person had fraudulent or dishonest intention at the time of
making the promise, to say that he committed an act of
cheating. A mere failure to keep up promise subsequently
cannot be pre-sumed as an act leading to cheating.
