The case concerns petitions filed by the Gandhi family and AAP challenging the Income Tax department's decision to transfer their income tax assessments to the Central Circle, which is tasked with investigating tax evasion.
The Supreme Court has deferred the hearing until December 13th.
The Delhi High Court had dismissed petitions challenging the transfer of assessments to the Central Circle, stating the transfer was in accordance with the Income Tax Act.
They contested the transfer, arguing it was linked to arms dealer Sanjay Bhandari and unrelated to their own cases.
The Income Tax department argued that the transfer was for 'better coordination, effective investigation, and meaningful assessment', citing administrative convenience.
The Supreme Court has directed the Income Tax department to bring the relevant file to the court on the next hearing date, December 13th.
