The HC granted regular bail to the accused charged with availing and passing on fraudulent ITC through bogus supplies, emphasizing that bail is generally the rule in economic offences and its refusal the exception. The Court rejected a blanket denial of bail for grave economic offences, noting the maximum prescribed sentence was five years.
