CrPC Section 395

BNSS Section 434— Finality of judgments and orders on appeal.

Effective for any FIR, charge sheet, or filing on or after 1 July 2024. Matters that arose before that date continue under the CrPC.

Judgments and orders passed by an Appellate Court on appeal are final, subject to the exceptions provided in sections 418, 419, 425(4), and Chapter XXXII. Notwithstanding final disposal of an appeal against conviction, the Appellate Court may still hear and decide on the merits an appeal against acquittal under section 419 or an appeal for enhancement of sentence under section 418 arising out of the same case.
