HC upheld the power to compound an offence under Section 147 even after conviction in a cheque dishonour case. Relying on precedential judgments, the court exercised its plenary discretion to set aside the prior conviction and sentence. The court found no legal impediment to accept the application for compounding the offence under Section 147 of the Act, read with Section 528 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. Consequently, the criminal revision order and judgment of conviction were recalled, effectively allowing the compounding of the offence post-conviction.
