Criminal litigation & White-Collar Crimes

Criminal litigation stems from proceedings initiated by investigative agencies for offences punishable under various Indian laws. It begins with the registration of an FIR and continues through the stages of investigation, bail, discharge, evidence, trial, and final adjudication. These proceedings are primarily governed by the Indian Penal Code, 1860, the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973, and the Indian Evidence Act, 1872. 

With the notification and enforcement of the new criminal laws — Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023, Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita 2023, and Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam 2023 — effective from July 1, 2024, navigating this new legal framework requires sharp legal acumen and deep procedural understanding.

Rahul Agarwal & Associates has a strong and established criminal litigation practice with significant focus on white-collar crimes, financial offences, and prosecution under special legislations. Our team represents clients before Metropolitan Magistrate Courts, Sessions Courts, Special Courts including PMLA, CBI, MP/MLA, and MPID Courts, and before investigation authorities such as the Enforcement Directorate, Central Bureau of Investigation, Economic Offences Wing, Serious Fraud Investigation Office, Customs, DRI, Income Tax, GST and the Anti-Corruption Bureau.

We also handle litigation before adjudicating and appellate authorities in proceedings relating to attachment, seizure, and prosecution. Our firm routinely appears before the Supreme Court of India, the High Courts of Bombay, Delhi and Gujarat, and various trial courts across the country.

Our experience includes representing clients in proceedings under a wide array of special laws including the Prevention of Money Laundering Act, the Companies Act, the Foreign Exchange Management Act, the Smugglers and Foreign Exchange Manipulators (Forfeiture of Property) Act, the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, and the Maharashtra Protection of Depositors Act.

In addition to court representation, we specialize in quashing Look Out Circulars, securing travel permissions for undertrial or convicted individuals, and obtaining orders for de-freezing of bank accounts or assets, including those attached under the Prevention of Corruption Act.
