The Supreme Court dismissed Food Corporation of India's appeal challenging municipal property tax assessment by Jalalabad Municipality. The Court held that FCI, though a statutory corporation, is a distinct legal entity from the Union of India and therefore not exempt from state taxation under Article 285 of the Constitution, despite being government-controlled and subsidized. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
