For quashing, the registration of the FIR has to be challenged.

Quashing can be filed before the concerned High Court.

Under what Sections you have been booked.
FIR can be closed by the concerned Magistrate if the same are compoundable.
Please meet with lawyer with all papers so that you can be advised appropriately

See as per the Law and dictates of Hon'ble Supreme Court a PC Act case can not be compounded neither it can be quashed by the High Court on the basis of a out of court settlement. For the quashing of an FIR in a PC Act case you need to proof that the preliminary case is not made out. Do consult with the documents including the FIR for a proper advice.
