Courts generally favor quashing FIRs that lack substantive ingredients of the alleged offences or when the offence is trivial or covered under general exceptions. The key consideration is whether the FIR discloses a prima facie case under the specified sections. If not, or if the FIR is registered without application of mind, judicial intervention to quash is justified.
