The Supreme Court on 7 September 2026 dismissed the Centre's appeal seeking to revive a Rs 363 crore goods and services tax demand against Vodafone Idea, upholding a Bombay High Court ruling that had earlier quashed the demand. A bench of Justices J B Pardiwala and N Vinod Chandran questioned how tax proceedings could be initiated against Vodafone Mobile Services Limited after it had ceased to exist following its merger with another entity. The dispute arose after the Directorate General of GST Intelligence issued a show cause notice in August 2024 over the 2017 transfer of Vodafone Mobile Services' telecom tower business to ATC Telecom Infrastructure, seeking tax and penalty from a company the Bench noted no longer legally existed.
