<h1>Corporate liability for offences: responsible officials can be prosecuted unless they prove lack of knowledge or due diligence.</h1> Where a company commits an offence under the Act, the company and every person in charge and responsible for its business at the time are deemed guilty and liable; persons whose consent, connivance or negligence led to the offence - including directors, managers, secretaries or other officers - are also personally liable. The provision applies mutatis mutandis to partnership firms, LLPs, HUFs and trusts, treating partners, karta or managing trustees as liable, while a defence exists where the person proves lack of knowledge or that all due diligence was exercised to prevent the offence.
