Iqra Bajpai

Profile description

You have received a High Court order that quashes a legal remedy you were relying on, or you are entangled in a fraud and cheating case that threatens severe penalties, while your company directors face criminal proceedings that could cripple the business. Iqra Bajpai is the advocate who specialises in filing Special Leave Petitions against quashing orders, overturning fraud and cheating judgments, and protecting directors from criminal prosecution. The first conversation will focus on why the existing orders may be legally infirm.

Iqra Bajpai has more than twelve years of experience representing clients before the Punjab and Haryana High Court and before the Supreme Court of India. The advocate regularly assists businesses, individuals, and corporate officers who believe that a High Court judgment to quash a relief was rendered without proper consideration of precedent or statutory purpose. By analysing the judgment, Iqra Bajpai identifies gaps in reasoning, overlooked evidence, or misapplication of law that can form the basis of a Special Leave Petition.

When a fraud and cheating case is at stake, the advocate examines the charge sheet, the investigative reports, and the evidence presented. Iqra Bajpai can argue that the alleged deception lacks the mens rea element, that the accused acted in good faith, or that procedural safeguards were ignored. The advocate drafts a petition that highlights inconsistencies, raises alternative interpretations of the facts, and cites leading Supreme Court decisions that favour the client’s position.

Directors of companies are often targeted with criminal proceedings for alleged misconduct. Iqra Bajpai’s practice includes quashing such proceedings by demonstrating that the allegations do not meet the threshold for criminal liability, that the directors acted within the scope of their authority, or that the investigative agency exceeded its jurisdiction. The advocate prepares a detailed petition that requests the High Court—or, if necessary, the Supreme Court—to stay or dismiss the proceedings, thereby preserving the directors’ ability to manage the company.

The procedural road map begins with a meticulous review of the original order, the special leave petition drafting, and the filing of supporting annexures. Iqra Bajpai knows the exact formatting requirements of the Supreme Court and the importance of presenting a concise statement of grounds. The advocate also anticipates counter‑arguments and prepares oral submissions that underscore the public interest in upholding lawful corporate governance and preventing wrongful deprivation of liberty.

Clients often wonder about the realistic outcomes and the timeline. Iqra Bajpai can explain that a Special Leave Petition, once admitted, may be listed for hearing within a few months, and that the Court can grant interim relief to protect the client’s interests pending a final decision. The advocate keeps the client informed of every development, ensuring that business operations continue uninterrupted.

Past successes include securing the Supreme Court’s reversal of a High Court quashment that had stripped a company of a critical injunction, obtaining an acquittal in a high‑value fraud case where the prosecution’s evidence collapsed under scrutiny, and obtaining the dismissal of criminal proceedings against two directors after demonstrating procedural impropriety. Each victory reflects the advocate’s strategic planning, deep knowledge of case law, and persuasive advocacy.

If you are confronting a quashing order, a fraud and cheating allegation, or criminal proceedings against company directors, a focused Special Leave Petition can provide the relief you need. Iqra Bajpai’s extensive experience before both the High Court and the Supreme Court ensures that your case receives the rigorous analysis and skilled representation required to protect your rights and interests.
