Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
The HC granted regular bail to the applicant charged u/ss 132(1)(b) and 132(1)(c) of CGGST Act for creating fake firms and issuing fraudulent invoices. Despite the allegations, the HC considered the GST Department's failure to investigate actual beneficiaries, seizure of applicant's accounts before summons, seeking same liabilities from applicants and other entities, failure to implicate end users, applicant's prolonged incarceration since 22.06.2024, and likelihood of delayed trial proceedings. Without commenting on merits, regular bail was granted subject to conditions.
