Barkul was convicted under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act and sentenced to six months imprisonment plus ₹12.5 lakh fine; the court suspended this sentence finding prima facie merit in his contentions and considering his substantial fine deposits (₹2.5 lakh already paid, ₹3 lakh to be deposited by June 10, 2026).
