Interim release period can not be included in the detention period. However, bail can be asked from the court by taking interim release as a ground to it.
However court can not detain you more than 90 days if the investigation is going on.

Hello,

If a person gets arrested, send to judicial custody and if he gets released on interim bail, it does not mean that he would be entitled for regular bail. Regular bail can be granted on the facts and circumstances and merits of the case. If the person/accused duly abide by the conditions of interim bail and surrender himself before the court or jail authorities, then it would be a plus point for him.
