Bailable offenses are less serious and the accused has the right to be released on bail, often by the police, while non-bailable offenses are more serious and bail is not a right, requiring a court decision. Bail is typically granted for bailable offenses upon the accused providing sureties, whereas non-bailable offenses require a court application and may be subject to stricter bail conditions.

The main difference between bailable and non-bailable offenses lies in the availability of bail and the authority that can grant it. In bailable offenses, the accused has the right to be released on bail, and it can be granted by the police or the court. Non-bailable offenses, on the other hand, are more serious, and bail is not an automatic right, with the court having discretion to grant it.
