Dishonor of Cheque - compounding of offences - Even though the parties have arrived at a settlement after the Appellate Court had upheld the conviction of the petitioner, yet keeping in view the spirit of Section 147 of the NI Act, the offence under Section 138 of the Act can be compounded, as the respondent has clearly agreed that on account of precarious financial condition of the petitioner, he is ready to accept the amount of ₹ 25000/- which he has already received from the petitioner and the amount which is deposited with the Registry of this Court as full and final settlement of his claim.
