Best Answer

There is no specific section which deals with Fraud. The element of Fraud has to be made out by Sections 415 and 420 or by reading with forgery i.e. Section 463. Criminal misappropriation or breach of trust also includes/deals with Fraud.

Fraud is essentially an element which is specifically defined and provided in Indian Contract Act, which is for Civil remedy.

So, fraud has to be established by making co - relations and by drawing analogies and fulfilling its ingredients (which can be made known by looking into judgments which explain 'Fraud')
