About this template

What is this template?

This document is a formal deed of compromise intended to facilitate the legal quashing of a First Information Report (FIR) under Indian law. It is not a court order itself but a required evidence of settlement to be filed with a petition to the High Court. It specifically records that the settlement was reached without coercion or undue influence.

When should you use it?

Use this when both parties in a criminal case involving compoundable or quashable offenses agree to settle their differences and want to stop the police investigation or court trial. Use a Settlement Agreement for purely civil matters instead.
