casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court dismissed Saketh India Ltd.'s appeal challenging the validity of a cheque dishonour complaint filed under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. The court held that when calculating the one-month deadline for filing such complaints, the starting date must be excluded and the ending date included—a standard rule of construction applied in limitation periods. Since the 15-day notice period expired on 14 October 1995, the complaint filed on 15 November 1995 was filed within the prescribed one-month timeframe and was therefore timely. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
