Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Karma is a concept of Hinduism which describes a system in which beneficial effects are derived from past beneficial actions and harmful effects from past harmful actions, creating a system of actions and reactions throughout a soul’s (jivatman’s) reincarnated lives, forming a cycle of rebirth.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bad Karma will not only have ramifications in this lifetime but in the next life because of reincarnation, a process called Samsara. Samsara is a continuous cycle of rebirth, and humans can reap their rewards in this life, a future human rebirth or be born into a heavenly or hellish realm.
