Session No 7: Demystifying Economic Crimes under the IPC.
Panelist - Mr Vikas Pahwa, Senior Advocate.
This lecture uncovers knowledge on various economic crimes with specific reference to Cheating, Criminal Breach of Trust, and Forgery under the IPC. Economic crimes as an area of practice will have a wide scope in the future as between the 1970-2000s we are seeing a gradual change in the nature of the crime; from crimes of passion to smart crimes. Understanding the mens rea elements in this chapter under IPC can help in a better understanding of economic crimes under special enactments.

The lecturer is incorrect when he says that when cheating is accompanied by delivery of property then only it would be punishable under section 420. There can be no cheating without delivery (when delivery of the property is in question). The difference between 417 and 420 IPC is subtle: when the inducement is fraudulent, it is covered by 417; when it is dishonest, it is covered by 420. Delivery is essential in both the cases (when delivery of the property is in question). 417 IPC is not confined to delivery of property alone. It is attracted even when inducement is to make a person do that which he would not do in case deception is not practiced etc. There are other points of difference also.
