section 149 doesn't contains any penalty and punishment procedure, so section 447 attracts. Thus, as per Section 447, any person who is found to be guilty of fraud, shall be punishable with imprisonment for a term which shall not be less thansix months but which may extend to ten years and shall also be liable to fine whichshall not be less than the amount involved in the fraud, but which may extend to three times the amount involved in the fraud. Where the fraud in question involves public interest, the term of imprisonment shall not be less than three years.

You have to refer to Sec.172 and not Sec.447 for penal provisions in this case.
