    Summary: Criminal Appeal 165/2024 Court Decision: The appellate court dismissed the conviction appeal but partially modified the sentence. Mahesh Motekar was convicted under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act for issuing a bounced cheque of Rs. 30,76,809/- for loan repayment. The court upheld the conviction, confirming he issued the cheque for a legally recoverable debt that was dishonoured and remained unpaid despite notice. However, recognizing his partial payment of Rs. 8,00,000/-, the fine was reduced from Rs. 32,76,809/- to Rs. 24,76,809/-.
