      Anticipatory bail granted to a person is applicable only in respect of the offence for which it was granted by the court. If another offence was registered against that person in the past, or if another offence is registered against him in future, then the benefit of anticipatory bail will not automatically extend to such other offence(s).

      The person concerned has to apply afresh for anticipatory bail in such other offence(s) as well, and get separate order for grant of anticipatory bail from the competent court under Section 438 of the Criminal Procedure Code.
