British Citizenship - Good Character ?

Hi All,
I have a doubt related to British Citizenship - Good Character point

Last year, unfortunately fined by court as I was having invalid ticket while travelling from Ipswich to Stratford.
Pleaded guilty on 14 Jan 2013. I have paid 272£ by going in Court.

===================================================================================================
Court Extract as below

"Contrary to byelaw 18(1) and 24 of the Railway Byelaws made under Section 219 of the Transport Act 2000 by the Strategic Railway Authority and confirmed
under schedule 20 of Transport Act 2000, as amended by Section 46 of the Railways Act 2005
On 24/09/2012 at between Ipswich and Stratford stations, the defendant not being in a designated compulsory ticket area, entered a train for the purpose of travelling without having with you a valid ticket entitling you to travel.

Plea: Guilty - 14/01/2013

FO
Fined £124.00
===================================================================================================

My ILR is granted last year without any hassle. Can any one advise if my British Citizenship will get rejected on 'Good Character' point ?

If yes, when I will be eligible to apply again ?

Many Thanks
Ram
