2. This hearing has been done through hybrid mode.
3. By way of the present petition, the petitioner is seeking quashing of FIR No. 75/2021 dated 08.04.2021, registered at Police Station Inder Puri, Delhi, for the offences punishable under Section 63 of the Copyright Act, 1957 and Sections 103/104 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, and all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom.
4. Issue notice. The learned APP accepts notice on behalf of the State.
5. The petitioner and respondents no. 2 are present before this Court and have been identified by their counsel and Investigating Officer.
6. The brief facts of the case are that, on 08.04.2021, on the basis of a complaint received from the complainant, the police conducted a raid at premises bearing No. W-XXX, Dashrathpuri, Inderpuri, Delhi, where allegedly counterfeit Levi’s jeans/garments were being manufactured. The premises were found to be under the control of the accused Rajan, and material allegedly used for manufacturing counterfeit Levi’s products was recovered from the spot. Consequently, FIR No. 75/2021 was registered at Police Station Inderpuri.
7. On a query made by this Court, respondent no. 2 who has been identified by the IO, has categorically stated that he has entered into compromise, vide Settlement Agreement dated 13.11.2024, out of his own free will and without any pressure, coercion or threat. Therefore, he has no objection if the present FIR is quashed.
8. In view of the above, that the parties have amicably resolved their differences out of their own free will, and without any coercion, no useful purpose will be served by continuing the proceedings, rather the same would create further acrimony between them. It would thus be in interest of justice to quash the abovementioned FIR and the proceedings pursuant thereto. There is no legal impediment in quashing the FIR in question.
9. Accordingly, FIR No. 75/2021, registered at Police Station Inder Puri, Delhi, for the offences punishable under Section 63 of the Copyright Act, 1957 and Sections 103/104 of the Trade Marks Act, 1999, along with all consequential proceedings emanating therefrom, is hereby quashed.
10. The present petition is disposed of. Pending application(s), if any, also stand(s) disposed of.
11. Copy of the order be communicated to the concerned Trial Court for necessary action and compliance.
12. The order be uploaded on the website forthwith. MADHU JAIN, J SEPTEMBER 2, 2026/JYH/RM
