Section:

Bail-Bail bond-Condition, that person admitted to bail shall desist from repetition of offence with which he is charged cannot be "incorporated in bail bond"-"Bail"-Meaning Criminal Procedure Code (V of 1898), S. 499 read with S. 561-A and with Ss. 496, 497, 498, 500, 502 & 514-Accused has indefeasible right to grant of bail under S. 496-Inherent powers under S. 561-A when exercisable.

Section 500 also enacts that as soon as the bond has been executed, the person for whose appearance it has been executed shall be released.
