The Supreme Court on Monday (November 24, 2025) agreed to examine a petition to stop cash donations of even up to ₹2000 to political parties for the sake of transparency, and to bring every political contribution, no matter what the amount, under the income tax regime.
A Bench of Justices Vikram Nath and Sandeep Mehta issued notice on the plea that the Election Commission of India (ECI) must not spare political parties from disclosing even cash donations up to ₹2000, and they should be made to divulge the complete details of their donors.
