    Summary: The Punjab & Haryana High Court granted bail to Rohit Kumar Gupta, proprietor of M/s Maa Steel, who was arrested on charges of GST evasion involving approximately Rs. 9.66 crores in illegal Input Tax Credit claims through fake invoices. The court found that after 3.5 months in custody, with purely documentary evidence and no risk of tampering or flight, continued detention served no investigative purpose. Applying Supreme Court precedent emphasizing that bail is the rule and incarceration the exception, the court released him on bail with conditions including non-interference with witnesses, address notification, and travel restrictions. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
