HC granted regular bail to accused in GST fraud case involving fake firms and fraudulent input tax credit. Despite ongoing investigation and allegations under CGST Act Sections 132(1)(c), 132(1)(b), and 132(1)(i), the court found insufficient evidence directly linking accused to firm management. Considering potential trial duration, absence of substantive evidence, and low flight risk given official witnesses, the court deemed continued detention unproductive. Bail was allowed subject to furnishing requisite bonds and compliance with trial court's conditions, without expressing opinion on case merits.
