Purposive interpretation of residential house exemption: unregistered purchase agreement alone does not defeat relief, but investment must be verified...
A writ petition seeking a creamy-layer based restriction on scheduled tribe tax exemption was treated as a request to alter legislative public policy, and the SC declined to entertain it in constitutional writ jurisdiction. The Court held that prayers to formulate, revise, or amend the exemption policy were not appropriate for adjudication at that stage. It left the petitioner free to pursue the matter before the Committee on Petitions and to forward the petition as a representation to the concerned authorities.
