    Question

    Whoever counterfeits, or knowingly performs, any part of the process of counterfeiting Indian coin shall be punished with:

    A.

    Imprisonment which may extend to ten years and fine

    B.

    Imprisonment which may extend to seven years and fine

    C.

    Imprisonment which may extend to five years and fine

    D.

    Imprisonment which may extend to three years and fine

    Correct option is A


    Under Section 232 IPC (178 BNS), counterfeiting Indian coin is a very serious offence. Punishment prescribed: Imprisonment up to 10 years and fine.
    Why others are wrong:
    · [7 years], [5 years], [3 years] punishments apply to lesser offences under IPC but not to counterfeiting Indian coins, which endangers financial security.
    Information Booster:
    · Counterfeiting is a crime against public trust and national economy.
