The Court can exercise inherent powers under Section 482 Cr.P.C. to quash F.I.Rs when no prima facie case is made out.

Headnote:

During September-November 2016, M/s Shrinath Travels applied for PSV permits. Allegations of misuse of permits led to F.I.R.s against the petitioners. The final enquiry report exonerated the petitioners, finding no revenue loss. The petitioners sought quashing of the F.I.Rs under Section 482 Cr.P.C. The Court applied the principles from State of Haryana v. Ch. Bhajan Lal, finding no prima facie case against the petitioners. The Court observed that the allegations did not disclose the commission of any offence and quashed the F.I.Rs.
