Case Summary: M. Diwakar v. State of Tamil Nadu M. Diwakar was convicted under IPC Section 420 (cheating) for operating a fraudulent "Gold Jewels Scheme" that collected ₹1,05,50,170 from small investors through firms 'Sreenivasalu Chetty,' 'Mudra Silver Drafts,' and 'NSC Investors,' promising 21% interest and gold rewards but diverting the funds. The trial court sentenced him to 3 years rigorous imprisonment and ₹5,000 fine; both appellate courts upheld the conviction. The Supreme Court dismissed his appeal on March 13, 2014, rejecting arguments about bona fide intent, insolvency protection, and partial repayment, finding the crime serious and warranting no leniency.
