Metropolitan Magistrate Raghav Sharma also imposed a fine of Rs 10 lakh on Patkar.
The court sentenced Patkar after considering the evidence before it and the fact that the case went on for over two decades.
However, the court suspended the sentence for one month to enable Patkar to file an appeal against the order.
