HC declined to exercise inherent jurisdiction under Section 528 BNSS (Section 482 CrPC) to quash prosecution for offences under Sections 276B, 278B and 278E. The Court held that foundational facts of deduction but non-deposit of TDS within time stand admitted and prima facie ingredients of the offence are disclosed. Rival claims between directors regarding who controlled financial affairs and was responsible for TDS compliance were held to be pure questions of fact.

Petition was dismissed and proceedings directed to continue.
