A mere subsequent failure to repay a loan or perform a contractual obligation, even after a long-standing relationship involving multiple transactions, does not retrospectively convert a civil dispute into a criminal offence. Where the complaint contains no specific averment of deception or dishonest inducement at the outset, the essential ingredients of cheating are not made out and the criminal proceedings are liable to be quashed. Karnataka High Court.
