The High Court cancelled the bail granted to the respondent Gautam Garg, finding that the lower court had misconstrued the facts and legal position u/s 132 of the CGST Act. The Court held that the absence of material indicating the accused as the manager of the firms is not essential for prosecution u/s 132, which covers those who "cause to commit" offenses related to availing input tax credit without issuing invoices or supplying goods. The legislature amended Section 132 to catch hold of offenders enabling companies to avail input credit illegally. The Court found the respondent's arguments regarding accountability of only individuals engaged in management unsustainable and observed that while considering bail, courts should not delve into the legality of arrest unless there is a gross violation.
