fine or a portion of it is not immediately paid, the date of release shall be fixed on such dates as shall correspond to payment as well as nonpayment of the fine. When any portion of the fine is subsequently paid, the date of the release shall be altered accordingly. Example.—If a prisoner is sentenced on the 1st January to six months imprisonment and to pay a fine of Rs. 300, or in default of payment to be imprisoned for a further period of six months, then supposing that the prisoner, immediately on conviction pays Rs. 100, the date of release shall be first fixed at 31st October, that is, six months plus four months (being the term proportionate to the amount of the fine unpaid), and entries shall be made on the warrant as the 30th June and 31st October; if he afterwards pays another Rs. 100 the later date shall be changed to 31st August, on his paying the whole, the fact shall be noted opposite the entry on the 30th June. Calculation of remission on payment of fine. Rule44. If a prisoner is sentenced to fine and in default, to imprisonment for a period and pays a portion of his fine, the remission for the payment shall be calculated in days, fractions of less than half a day shall not be counted. Half or over shall count as one day. Example.-A prisoner is sentenced on 15th July to six months' imprisonment and to pay a fine of Rs. 300 or in default six months further imprisonment. He pays Rs.63. The calculation shall be made as follows:Number of days of imprisonment in lieu life X Amount ———————————.——— Paid = Number of days to be remitted. Amount of fine Rs. 180x63 =37/4/5 days i.e. 38 days 300 Note.-Month shall be reckoned to consist of thirty days for the purpose of calculating the number of days to be deducted in lieu of the amount of fine realized.
