The HC allowed the applicant's bail application and ordered release on furnishing requisite surety and complying with imposed conditions. The court noted allegations of large-scale GST fraud involving fictitious ITC transfers approximating Rs.185 crore and charges under the CGST Act, but emphasized the applicant's one-year custodial incarceration, that the offences carry a maximum punishment of five years and are magistrate-triable, and that trial remains at an early stage.
