Please guide me with list of Sections both in IPC and CrPC to study for a Complain Case on grounds of Fraud / Mischief / Cheating and Perjury.
If Ld. members can respectively quote Apex court citations for each grounds then it will be much more easier to understand the Point of Law as discussed by Apex Court (binding principal point of view is what I am thinking here)

MR. D. ARUN KUMAR,
As per your request, following are the Sections against each Offence :
Mischief : 425
Cheating : 420
Perjury : 191
DEFINITION OF FRAUD Fraud is defined as "any behavior by which one person intends to gain a dishonest advantage over another". In other words , fraud is an act or omission which is intended to cause wrongful gain to one person and wrongful loss to the other, either by way of concealment of facts or otherwise. Fraud is defined u/s 421 of the Indian Penal Code and u/s 17 of the Indian Contract Act. Thus essential elements of frauds are: 1. There must be a representation and assertion; The term 'fraud' has not been defined in the Indian Penal Code (IPC). Nevertheless, Section 25 of the IPC does attempt to define the word 'fraudulently' by saying that there can be no fraud unless there is an intention to defraud. In general, fraud is committed in three different ways:
The main intent of a fraudulent person is, in almost every case, his/her own advantage. A conclusive test to the fraudulent character of a deception for criminal purpose is whether the author of the deceit derived any advantage from it which he would not have had if the truth had been known.This definition of fraud encompasses scams on the Net. Sections relating to cheating (415 to 420), such as cheating by impersonation (Section 416) and cheating with knowledge that wrongful loss may ensue to a person whose interest the offender is bound to protect (Section 418) may be applied according to the facts of a case.
2. It must relate to a fact;
3. It must be with the knowledge that it is false or without belief in its truth; and
4. It must induce another to act upon the assertion in question or to do or not to do certain act.
