NI Act Cases got Nothing to do with MCI.Better avoid Such things to save your Reputation.

1. If you are convicted then perhaps your detention in jail will jeopardize recognition of your M.C.I. affiliation unless the bye laws of M.C.I. do not have any such restriction imposed on the practice after release of the convict upon the completion of the tenure of such punishment.
2. But why should you be apprehending conviction ? This is what is to be worked upon as how best you can escape from such punishment u/s 138 of N.I.Act.

Better try to have settlement. try to avoid conviction.

In 138 NI Act case penalty is mostly done and the conviction is mostly for few months only.
The conviction is of little consideration in job in private sector but damaging enough in your reputation.
So if you indeed owe him money then settle with him out of court.

Usually fine is imposed but in rare case jail could also be awarded as it is a criminal offence now. Try to tell the court that you are ready to pay with interest and matter will be settled

The complaint could be compromised or got compounded. However, there is no need to rush to compromise if you have a good defense.

I sail with the views of Adv Venu

If you are defaulter then compromise policy is better if not then defense the matter by an expert and do not take it easy.
