Orders
Case Summary: Himanshu v. B. Shivamurthy (Crl.A. No. 1465/2009) The Supreme Court allowed appellant Himanshu's appeal and quashed the cheque dishonor complaint against him under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act. The Court held that since the cheque for Rs. 4,15,000 was issued by Himanshu as Director of Lakshmi Cement and Ceramics Industries Ltd. (not in personal capacity), the company itself must be arraigned as accused—the complaint against the individual director alone was unmaintainable. The appellant deposited the full amount (Rs. 4,15,000 with accrued interest) in court, which was ordered disbursed to complainant B. Shivamurthy upon proof of identity.
