On February 2nd Rajpal Yadav was directed to surrender by 4 pm on Wednesday that is on February 4th 2026, however the counsel for the actor submitted that the actor had arranged for Rs. 50 lakhs and thereafter seeking one more weeks’ time to make the balance payment. 

Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma has rejected the actor’s plea and his application seeking an extension of time to surrender , that there was no ground to grand him further relief.   He was given two more days to surrender and there is no ground left to give further extension. Rajpal Yadav had stated he was in Mumbai but he was asked to surrender at 4 pm , the judge said. 

The actor had repeatedly failed to comply with its order and the court’s undertaking which said , he has been pushing the matter for at least 15 to 20 times in the past . His conduct has been mentioned in the last order and he had not complied with any order or any undertaking. Hence, he does not deserve any leniency any more. 

The actor had repeatedly breached his undertaking to the court to repay the amount to the complainant M/s Murali Projects Pvt Ltd.  He was required to make a payment of Rs. 1.35 crore in each of the seven cases held against him and he was directed to deposit an amount with the registrar general of the High Court which was released in favor of the complainant. 

In October 2025,  two demand drafts were deposited with the registrar each of Rs. 75 Lakhs and an amount of 9 crore remains payable which was noted by the court in order. The court’s order was revised after Yadav and his wife challenging a 2019 decision at the session court which had upheld their conviction by the magisterial court in the cheque bounce cases registered in April 2018.
