Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court overturned the High Court's decision to quash the FIR filed under the Copyright Act, emphasizing that the offence under Section 63 is indeed cognizable and non-bailable. The court clarified that the High Court erred in its interpretation of the law regarding the nature of the offence, thereby reinstating the FIR and allowing the criminal proceedings to continue.
