    CASE SUMMARY: MCRCA 353/2026 Court Decision: The High Court of Chhattisgarh rejected anticipatory bail applications for Rohan Tanna and Chandrashekhar Chandrakar in a large-scale GST fraud case involving approximately Rs. 27 crores. The court found prima facie evidence that the applicants were key conspirators who orchestrated fraudulent Input Tax Credit (ITC) schemes through fake invoices of M/s Shristi Construction, supported by WhatsApp chats, bank records, and witness statements showing they operated the fraud in coordination with co-accused Chandan Gupta. Key Reasoning: The court rejected arguments that the offenses were merely economic and compoundable, noting that Section 132(1)(b) was explicitly made non-compoundable in October 2023, indicating legislative intent to treat fake invoice issuance seriously. The court emphasized that economic offenses involving conspiracies and huge public fund losses warrant strict bail approaches, and that documentary evidence combined with statements, electronic communications, and suspicious conduct (particularly Rohan Tanna's non-cooperation) justified denial of anticipatory bail.
