Section 245H's first proviso denies Settlement Commission immunity where prosecution was instituted before receipt of the settlement application. Accordingly, a settlement order cannot extend immunity to an already filed complaint concerning false statements in an income-tax search, including undisclosed bank lockers.

Where settlement remains unchallenged, payment directions have been complied with, and continued proceedings serve no practical purpose, the criminal complaint and consequential orders may be quashed.
