    The High Court of Bombay dismissed the PIL challenging the May 9, 2018 Notification imposing consolidated tax on land and buildings in Diu's municipal area. The court found the petitioners lacked standing as a public interest litigation since they failed to disclose whether they were personally liable for the tax, and found no illegality or arbitrariness in the notification itself.
