Proceeds of crime include illegal gratification obtained through corrupt activities, even before the amendment to Section 3 of the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The definition of "proceeds of crime" u/s 2(1)(u) PMLA covers involvement in corrupt practices. The Supreme Court's decision in Vijay Madanlal Chaudhary's case clarified that mere possession of proceeds of crime is not required for invoking PMLA provisions.
