Notwithstanding anything in section 415, there shall be no appeal by a convicted
person in any of the following cases, namely:—
(a) where a High Court passes only a sentence of imprisonment for a term not
exceeding three months or of fine not exceeding one thousand rupees, or of both
such imprisonment and fine;
(b) where a Court of Session passes only a sentence of imprisonment for a term
not exceeding three months or of fine not exceeding two hundred rupees, or of both
such imprisonment and fine;
(c) where a Magistrate of the first class passes only a sentence of fine not
exceeding one hundred rupees; or
(d) where, in a case tried summarily, a Magistrate empowered to act under
section 283 passes only a sentence of fine not exceeding two hundred rupees:
Provided that an appeal may be brought against such sentence if any other punishment
is combined with it, but such sentence shall not be appealable merely on the ground—
(i) that the person convicted is ordered to furnish security to keep the peace; or
(ii) that a direction for imprisonment in default of payment of fine is included in the
sentence; or
(iii) that more than one sentence of fine is passed in the case, if the total amount of
fine imposed does not exceed the amount hereinbefore specified in respect of the case.
