Dishonor of Cheque - person responsible for day to day affairs of the company - In the facts of the present case, the only averment in the complaint is that the remaining accused persons are directly responsible for day to day affairs of the accused No.1 company. Considering the fact that the petitioner is neither the signatory nor the Managing Director of the company nor is there any averment in the complaint as to how the petitioner is responsible and Incharge of the day to day affairs and conduct of the company, nor does the complaint attribute any conduct, act or omission on the part of the petitioner which would be sufficient to hold him vicariously liable for the act of the company, the impugned order summoning the petitioner is liable to be set aside. - HC
