Cases involving confiscation/ redemption fine are within the ambit of Sabka Vishwas (Legacy Dispute Resolution) Scheme, 2019


Quick Summary
The Gujarat High Court has ruled that taxpayers facing confiscation of goods and redemption fines are eligible to make declarations under the Sabka Vishwas (Legacy Dispute Resolution) Scheme, 2019. Despite initial rejections by the Designated Committee, the court found that the scheme's intent, supported by official communications, was to provide comprehensive relief, including for redemption fines. The Supreme Court later dismissed an appeal against this decision, confirming that such cases fall within the scheme's ambit.
