CASE SUMMARY: CRWP/3145/2026 Court Decision: The High Court of Punjab and Haryana dismissed petitioner Dhruv Dutt Sharma's petition seeking consolidation of five FIRs registered against him at Police Station Civil Lines, Gurugram. The court held that FIRs No.0001/2026, No.0002/2026, and No.0040/2026 involve separate transactions with distinct complainants and cannot be consolidated with the parent FIR No.262/2025, as each discloses independent causes of action requiring separate investigation. However, the court allowed FIR No.263/2025 to potentially be consolidated if investigation reveals substantial overlap with the parent FIR. Key Reasoning: The court rejected the argument that similarity of subject matter (same project, same accused) mandates consolidation. It established that the "same transaction" test requires a continuous and indivisible transaction with common factual foundation. Each FIR involved different representations, contractual arrangements, complainants, and alleged modes of cheating spanning different time periods, warranting independent investigation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
