  • The five-Judge Constitution Bench headed by Justice S. Abdul Nazeer rejected the 58 petitions challenging the Union government's 2016 decision to demonetise Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000 currency notes, while observing that the decision, which was taken by the Executive's Economic Policy, cannot be reversed now.
  • Justice B.R. Gavai, Justice A.S. Bopanna and Justice V. Ramasubramanian agreed to the verdict. However, Justice B.V. Nagarathna dissented to hold that the November 8, 2016 notification was unlawful.
  • As per Justice Nagarathna, "Legislation made in secrecy is an ordinance. The Centre's powers are vast for the demonetisation of all currency and must be exercised only through plenary legislation and not just a gazette notification."
