Summary
CBI can be refused over background, source of funds or documents. Some cases can be strengthened and refiled; nondisclosure is worse.
Short answer: after a refusal, obtain the reasons, then assess whether gaps can be fixed. Unclear funds, adverse background and nondisclosure are common. Honest disclosure matters most.

FAQ
