The Supreme Court of India is currently involved in multiple high-profile cases. Lawyers representing gaming companies have appeared before the Supreme Court to seek a hearing in October regarding GST notices among a batch of 44 cases. Chief Justice of India has assured that he will consider the request and clarify shortly. Additionally, the Supreme Court has issued directions for the virtual hearing of consolidated petitions on the Finance Act 2023 on September 10th and 11th, 2024. Parties are directed to orally highlight their written submissions, while amicus curiae will not make any oral submissions. The National Assembly has petitioned the Supreme Court to overturn an appellate court ruling that nullified the Finance Act 2023, arguing that the Act had undergone sufficient public participation. The government has defended the Finance Act 2023, with the Supreme Court concluding the hearing and stating that the judgment will be delivered on notice.
