Unless otherwise specified, a penal provision is applicable only from the date of enforcement and for the offences committed on or after that date.

Re: IT amendment act 2008

The rules and provisions of the act you mentioned will come into effect from the date of its amendment only and you cannot enforce the law on the accused who was held before the amndmnt.Nevertheless the accused maybe tried under IT act-2000,provided he did not committed the crime before the act implemented.
