When a person apprehends that someone might file a criminal complaint against them and get them arrested on false grounds due to enmity, jealousy or any other reason; they can approach session court or high court under Section 438 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 for grant of anticipatory bail. If a person is accused of an offence that is bailable in nature, the person has the right to obtain an order for bail. Also, if a person has obtained an order of anticipatory bail, it’s mandatory to release him on bail. 

In case of non-bailable offences, the accused can apply to Court for obtaining an order of bail. However, granting bail in such cases is completely on the discretion of the court.

Hence, if the person having anticipatory bail is arrested, he shall be released on bail as soon as the arrest takes place. You can apply for an anticipatory bail at any time before your arrest. You can file for the anticipatory bail even after an FIR has been filed against you.

In cases where anticipatory bail is granted and no complaint has been filed against the person having order of anticipatory bail, the anticipatory bail is valid for a period mentioned by the court in the order granting the anticipatory bail. After the expiry of the given time in order, the person is required to apply again for an extension of the anticipatory bail. Usually, the court grants validity of thirty days for anticipatory bail. 

In cases where the complaint has been filed against the person having anticipatory bail, the bail will be valid till the time chargesheet is filed. Once, the chargesheet is filed, the person has to apply for regular bail.
