1. Heard Mr. Niraj Baghel, learned counsel for the petitioners. Also heard Ms. Vaishali Mahilong, Dy. Govt. Advocate for the State as well as Mr. Prashant Sahu, learned counsel for Respondent No. 2. 2. The present petition under Section 528 of B.N.S.S. 2023 filed by the petitioners with the following reliefs:-
“1. Quash and set aside Charge-Sheet bearing No. 223 of 2023, submitted by Police Station Azad Chowk, District Raipur in FIR No. 199 of 2022 registered under Sections 120B & 420 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860, and all consequential proceedings arising therefrom on the ground of compromise. 2.
Quash and set aside the order dated 22.12.2023 passed by the learned Judicial Magistrate First Class Raipur, whereby cognizance was taken against the petitioners for the offences under Sections 120B & 420 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860. 3. Quash and set aside the order dated 11.02.2026 passed in criminal case No. 22589 of 2023, passed by the learned learned Judicial Magistrate First Class Raipur, District Raipur whereby charges under Sections 120B & 420 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 have been framed against the petitioners. 3
4. Quash the entire proceedings of Criminal Case No. 22589 of 2023, for the offence punishable under Sections 120B & 420 of the Indian Penal Code, 1860 pending before learned Judicial Magistrate First Class Raipur, District Raipur, as continuation of the said trial would amount to abuse of the process of Court in light of the amicable settlement between the parties. 5. Pass such further or other orders as this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper in the interest of justice.”
3. The present case arises out of FIR No. 199/2022 dated 05.05.2022 registered at Police Station Azad Chowk, Raipur for alleged offences under Sections 120-B and 420 IPC against the petitioners, who are partners of “S.M. Shop” and “Aakar 360” firms engaged in TMT steel trading. The complainant alleged that between 11.04.2022 and 18.05.2022, steel TMT bars totaling approximately 244.14 metric tons were supplied to the petitioners, for which payment of Rs. 1,56,34,527/- remained outstanding. It is, however, the case of the petitioners that the said goods were sold in the ordinary course of business to third parties, namely M/s Rampal Steel, Kabeer Steel, and Santosh Steel, from whom payment could not be realized despite repeated follow-ups and issuance of legal notice dated 05.06.2022. The petitioners contend that the dispute is purely commercial in nature arising out of business transactions and lacks any element of criminal intent or cheating.
During investigation, no material was found to indicate dishonest intention or misappropriation on the part of the petitioners, yet a charge-sheet was filed and cognizance was taken by the learned Magistrate. It is further submitted that multiple FIRs of similar nature were registered against the petitioners across different jurisdictions, allegedly to exert pressure in a civil dispute. 4 Subsequently, during pendency of proceedings, the parties entered into an amicable settlement on 02.12.2025, agreeing to resolve the dispute upon payment of a reduced amount as full and final settlement, and the complainant consented to quashing of proceedings. However, the trial court declined compounding due to the inclusion of Section 120-B IPC, compelling the petitioners to approach this Hon’ble Court seeking quashing of the FIR, charge-sheet, and consequential proceedings. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that after registration of the FIR against the present petitioners, the parties have entered into a compromise and a settlement agreement has also been executed between the parties on 02.12.2025 which is filed in the present petition. Since the dispute has been resolved and the matter has been compromised between the parties, there is no ultimate chance of their conviction and therefore, the impugned FIR as well as the criminal proceeding against the petitioners may be quashed on the basis of the compromise between the parties. 5. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondent No. 2/ complainant has not disputed the fact that they have entered into the compromise and settled their dispute, as also the contents of the settlement agreement executed between the parties on 02/12/2025. In view of the settlement agreement dated 02/12/2025, the complainant is having no objection in quashing of the FIR No. 199 of 2022, registered for the offence punishable under Section 120-B and 420 of IPC as well as the Criminal proceeding of the criminal case No. 22589 of 2023, pending before the learned Judicial Magistrate First Class, Raipur. 5
6.
We have considered the submissions made by learned counsel for the respective parties and have perused the document annexed with the petition by either side as well as the settlement agreement dated 02/12/2025. 7. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners submitted that the parties have entered into compromise and executed the deed of compromise on 02.12.2025, the copy of the compromise deed was submitted by the petitioners as Annexure P/5 and the compromise and conditions of the compromise between Mittal Steels and SM Shop, Samta Colony, Raipur (C.G.) are as under:-

"If for the purpose of securing the ends of justice, quashing of FIR becomes necessary, Section 320 would not be a bar to the exercise of power of quashing. it is, however, a different matter depending upon the facts and circumstances of each case whether to exercise or not such a power. Thus, the High Court on exercise of its inherent power can quash criminal proceedings or FIR or complaint and section 320 of the Code does not limit or affect the powers under Section 482 of the Code." 11.Further, in the matter of Gian Singh Vs State of Punjab and another reported in (2012) 10 SCC 303, Honble Supreme court has held:-
"57. The position that emerges from the above discussion can be summarised thus: the power of the High Court in quashing a criminal proceeding or FIR or complaint in exercise of its inherent jurisdiction is distinct and different from the power given to a criminal court for compounding the offences under Section 320 of the Code.
Inherent power is of wide plenitude with no statutory limitation but it has to be exercised in accord with the guideline engrafted in such power viz; (i) to secure the ends of justice or (ii) to prevent abuse of the process of any Court. In what cases power to quash the criminal proceeding or complaint or F.I.R may be exercised where the offender and victim have settled their dispute would depend on the facts and
10 circumstances of each case and no category can be prescribed. However, before exercise of such power, the High Court must have due regard to the nature and gravity of the crime. Heinous and serious offences of mental depravity or offences like murder, rape, dacoity, etc. cannot be fittingly quashed even though the victim or victim's family and the offender have settled the dispute. Such offences are not private in nature and have serious impact on society. Similarly, any compromise between the victim and offender in relation to the offences under special statutes like Prevention of Corruption Act or the offences committed by public servants while working in that capacity etc, cannot provide for any basis for quashing criminal proceedings involving such offences. But the criminal cases having overwhelmingly and pre-dominatingly civil flavour stand on different footing for the purposes of quashing, particularly the offences arising from commercial, financial, mercantile, civil, partnership or such like transactions or the offences arising out of matrimony relating to dowry, etc. or the family disputes where the wrong is basically private or personal in nature and the parties have resolved their entire dispute. In this category of cases, High Court may quash criminal proceedings if in its view, because of the compromise between the offender and victim, the possibility of conviction is remote and bleak and continuation of criminal case would put accused to great oppression and prejudice and extreme injustice would be caused to him by not quashing the criminal case despite full and complete settlement and compromise with the victim.
In other words, the High Court must consider whether it would be unfair or contrary to the interest of justice to continue with the criminal proceeding or continuation of the criminal proceeding would tantamount to abuse of process of law despite settlement and compromise between the victim and wrongdoer and whether to secure the ends of justice, it is appropriate that criminal case is put to an end and if the answer to the above question(s) is in affirmative, the High Court shall be well within its jurisdiction to quash the criminal proceeding."
11 12.Further, in the matter of Narinder Singh and others Vs State of Punjab reported in (2014) 6, SCC 466, Hon'ble Supreme court has held that:
"29.4 On the other hand, those criminal cases having overwhelmingly and pre-dominantly civil character, particularly those arising out of commercial transactions or arising out of matrimonial relationship or family disputes should be quashed when the parties have resolved their entire disputes among themselves. 29.5 While exercising its powers, the High Court is to examine as to whether the possibility of conviction is remote and bleak and continuation of criminal cases would put the accused to great oppression and prejudice and extreme injustice would be caused to him by not quashing the criminal cases." 13.In view of the aforesaid pronouncement of the Hon'ble Supreme Court and also in the facts and circumstances of the case, particularly, the compromise arrived at between the parties and execution of settlement deed in between them.
Accordingly, the present petition deserves to be allowed and the proceedings of Criminal Case No. 22589 of 2023 pending before the learned Judicial Magistrate First Class, Raipur for the offence under Section 120-B and 420 of IPC, arising out of the Crime No. 199/2022 registered at Police Station Azad Chowk, Raipur, charge-sheet No. 223/2023 submitted by Azad Police Station, Raipur for the offence under section 120-B and 420 of IPC, order taking cognizance dated 22.12.2023 by the learned Judicial Magistrate First Class, Raipur in Criminal Case No. 22589/2023 and further the charges framed thereunder are hereby quashed against the petitioner No.1 Swapnil Mittal, No. 2 Garima Sharma, No. 3 Suresh Mittal, No. 4
12 Piyush Rathi, No.5 Vikram Singh and No. 6 Smt. Neha Singh, subject to the fulfillment of the conditions of compromise. 14.Accordingly, the instant CRMP is allowed. Sd/- Sd/-
