60 days where crime is punishable for 3 years and 90 days if crime is punishable fo life/death or 7 years .

If police fail to file charge sheet within said time , the accused is entitled to bail

Re: Charge sheet

The opinions given by my learned colleagues are right. You can get exact details from Section 167 Criminal Procedure Code, 1973. It gives the effect on bails. Nothing happens to the matter.

Re: Charge sheet

There is no time limit for filing of a charge sheet. However, if an accused is in custody/jail and the charge sheet is not filed within 60 or 90 days (as per the nature of offence), then such accused become entitled to bail u/s.167 Cr.P.C. The last part of query is not understood as to what kind of remedy accused want to explore?

Re: Charge sheet

90 days in a case where punishment is death,life imprisonment,7 years.60 days in other case.

Failing which accused is entitled to bail.
