Entitlement to regular bail in alleged fraudulent availment of input tax credit was allowed where the court found that allegations were documentary, records were already with the department, and further custodial interrogation would be purposeless; the petitioner had been detained since 03.11.2025 and trial was likely to be protracted given voluminous documents.

Bail was granted subject to furnishing bonds and the trial court was directed to proceed expeditiously; no opinion was expressed on merits.
