New judgement on sec147 NI

K.M. Ibrahim Vs. K.P. Mohammed No.2281 of 2009 (Arising out of s.l.p. (crl.) No...9263 of 09 Crl.m.p.15423/2009) supreme court has held "It is true that the application under Section 147 of the Negotiable Instruments Act was made by the parties after the proceedings had been concluded before the Appellate Forum. However, Section 147 of the aforesaid Act does not bar the parties from compounding an offence under Section 138 even at the appellate stage of the proceedings. Accordingly, we find no reason to reject the application under Section 147 of the aforesaid Act"

Mr Anish, If I am right, it is the prevalent law and the Apex Court has re-affirmed the position. Once the case is compoundable, it can be compunded at any stage, including appeal.
