Bail upheld for alleged tax credit fraud; agency criticized for delayed investigation.

Case Laws     GST

August 21, 2024

Petition seeking cancellation of bail granted to respondents in a case involving filing of input tax credit for non-operational firms was dismissed. The Department contended that bail was granted at an early stage without opportunity for custodial interrogation, and that investigation into claimed input tax credits from firms with no supplies and background checks of firms and transporters is ongoing. However, the Court opined that cancellation of bail after seven months is unnecessary, as the investigation for such offenses is primarily documentary in nature, which the Investigating Agency can procure.
