Whether the high court will grant bail in these offences (i.e., Sections 420, 409, 467, 471 IPC) will depend upon the facts and circumstances of each case and no hard and fast rule can be laid down in this regard. Every case has its own peculiar facts and circumstances.
But, generally speaking, though all these offences are non-bailable, in appropriate circumstances, bail can be granted in these offences depending on facts of the case concerned. Sometimes, the bail may be refused at the initial stage, specially during investigation; but subsequently, bail may be granted if there is no fear of witnesses being influenced, or evidence being concealed or destroyed or the accused absconding, etc.
So, you may try in the high court for getting bail in consultation with your lawyer who would be aware of the full facts of your case.
