To find out if an FIR (First Information Report) has been lodged against you, you can take the following steps:

  1. Visit the nearest police station and ask if there is an FIR registered against you.

  2. If you are not in the same city as the police station where the FIR was registered, you can file an application under the Right to Information (RTI) Act to obtain information about the FIR.

  3. You can also search for information about the FIR on the websites of the police department or the court where the case is being heard.

  4. In some cases, the police may contact you directly to inform you that an FIR has been lodged against you.

It is important to note that if an FIR has been filed against you, it is advisable to consult a lawyer and seek legal advice immediately.

If police allowed you to leave it means that only NC complaint might has been registered against you. And if FIR is registered against you, the police has every right to arrest you. There is no other way to find out whether NC complaint has been registered or not except police station. If FIR is registered then you can find out from the concern magistrate court.

Simplest way to do is approach the police station and ask them the details. If they are not giving you any details then you can ask by filing a RTI. Did they arrest you for investigation? How is it that you were not informed ?

You can check this in the register kept in the station or in there online record. From march 2016 all police station record are interlinked and you can check at CP office.
