A drink-and-drive violation under Section 185 of the Motor Vehicles Act is a non-compoundable offense, meaning you cannot pay the fine directly online or on the spot. Instead, it requires a mandatory appearance before a traffic court magistrate. Penalties and Legal Consequences First Offense: A fine of ₹10,000 and/or imprisonment for up to 6 months. Repeat Offense (within 3 years): A fine of ₹15,000 and/or imprisonment for up to 2 years. You may connect and seek a legal consultation and engage a lawyer

Since this is a non-compoundable drink and drive challan, the matter has to be dealt with by the Court. If you are travelling abroad from 1st to 7th August 2026, we can check the case status and, if permissible, seek exemption from your personal appearance. Please share a copy of the challan and your contact number so we can advise you further.
