Explanation

Under Section 65 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), the maximum term of imprisonment for non-payment of a fine is limited to one-fourth of the maximum term of imprisonment fixed for the original offense. This means that if a person is sentenced to both imprisonment and a fine, and they fail to pay the fine, they can be imprisoned for an additional period, but this additional period cannot exceed one-fourth of the maximum prison term associated with the primary offense.
