Understanding Fraud: Meaning, Ingredients & Taxonomy | Unit II Lecture 3| m.com| Lucknow university

In this detailed lecture, we move into Unit II: Fraud Definition & Taxonomy. While Unit I introduced us to Forensic Accounting, this session dives deep into the "Villain" of the story—FRAUD. We will explore why it happens, who does it, and how the law defines it.

Key Topics Covered in this Lecture:

Defining Fraud: Understanding why fraud is a planned, intentional act and not just a simple mistake or error.

The 5 Essential Ingredients: A breakdown of what legally constitutes fraud—from false representation to the intent to deceive and resulting loss.

The Fraud Triangle (Critical Topic): Analyzing the three factors that lead to fraud—Pressure, Opportunity, and Rationalization.

Who Commits Fraud? Exploring the roles of employees, management, top executives, and external parties in corporate crimes.

Corporate Fraud & The Law: A deep dive into the Companies Act, 2013 definition and how it handles corporate wrongdoing.

Frauds FOR vs. AGAINST the Company: Understanding the difference between illegal acts that benefit a firm (like tax evasion) versus those that harm it (like embezzlement).

Victims of Fraud: How financial crimes ripple through society, affecting shareholders, employees, and the government.

Whether you are preparing for B.Com, M.Com, or UGC NET (Commerce), this lecture will provide the conceptual clarity needed to master Forensic Accounting and Fraud Examination.
