Telgi and the others have been charged under sections 120-B (criminal conspiracy), 259 (having possession of counterfeit government stamp), 420 (cheating) and 471 (using as genuine a forged document) of the Indian Penal Code.

Telgi was also sentenced in June 2007 to 13 years in jail with a fine of Rs.202 crore on various counts by the special court for Maharashtra Control of Organised Crimes Act (MCOCA).
