Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal against the Bombay High Court's dismissal of a writ petition concerning the assignment of debts and subsequent criminal complaints under Sections 409, 418, 423, and 425 read with Section 120-B of the IPC. The Court held that the assignment of debts must be transparent and that the complainant's rights were compromised due to the lack of notification regarding the assignment. The Court ruled in favor of the complainant, emphasizing the need for due process in financial transactions and the implications of criminal liability under the IPC.
