It was further argued that both the courts below had overlooked the applicability of Sections 138(1)(b), 141 and 142(1) of the Negotiable Instruments Act. Besides, his name was not mentioned in the complaint, so he could not be impleaded as an accused in the complaint case.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court observed that the petitioner was the Chairman and Managing Director of Kingfisher Airlines Limited and thus was the incharge and fully responsible for the day-to-day business of the said company. Therefore, mere non-mentioning of the name of the petitioner in the complaint cannot absolve him of the responsibility of the company which issued the cheques in question. Thus, there was no need to issue notice by the complainant in the petitioner&#8217;s name\u00a0 as the cheques in question were issued by the company and the petitioner being its incharge was equally liable to be prosecuted.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court further held that undisputedly, the petitioner was the Chairman and Managing Director of the company and as per <em>S.M.S. Pharmaceuticals<\/em> v. <em>Neeta Bhalla<\/em>, <a href=\"http:\/\/beta.scconline.com\/LoginForNewsLink\/2007_4_SCC_70\">(2007) 4 SCC 70<\/a>, the Managing Director would be responsible for day-to-day affairs of the company. The argument advanced by the petitioner that he was not intervening in the day-to-day proceedings of the company, is of no consequence when the cheques in question were issued during the course of day-to-day business transactions for the benefit of the company. More the reason that in the complaint filed before the trial court the company had already been impleaded as one of the respondents.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Dismissing the petititons, the Bench of P. S. Teji, J. held that\u00a0 adding the name of Mr Vijay Mallya during the proceedings brought forth before the court below that he was the Chairman and Managing Director of the company which is guilty for dishonouring the cheques in question, would be covered under Section 141 of the Negotiable Instruments Act and cannot be termed as abuse to the process of law as envisaged in Section 482 CrPC.
