I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the case file. In appropriate cases, FIR can be quashed on the basis of compromise by exercising power under Section 482 Cr.P.C. even if the offences are not compoundable. It was so held by Full Bench of this Court in the case of Kulwinder Singh and others v. State of Punjab and others, 2007(3) R.C.R. (Criminal) 1052. In the instant case, claim of respondent No.2 has been satisfied. The entire due amount has been paid to him. Accordingly, it is a fit case in which the FIR should be quashed. For the reasons aforesaid, the instant petition is allowed and the impugned FIR No.88 dated 13.04.2010 under Sections 420, 406, 467, 468 and 471/120-B IPC registered at Police Station Khaidki Daula, District Gurgaon (Annexure P-1) is quashed along with all consequential proceedings arising therefrom.
