<h1>Supreme Court Clarifies Treaty Enforcement in India: Legislative Action Required Under Articles 253 for Domestic Effect.</h1> The Supreme Court case addresses the enforceability of international treaties in Indian law, emphasizing the constitutional framework governing treaty-making powers. It highlights that under Articles 253 and related provisions, Parliament holds exclusive legislative authority over treaties, reflecting India's dualist approach where treaties require domestic legislation to be enforceable. The Additional Solicitor General (ASG) argues that treaties do not automatically alter domestic rights or obligations without legislative action, referencing case law to support this view. The court underscores the necessity of legislative enactment for treaties to have domestic legal effect, particularly in tax law, ensuring alignment with constitutional principles and safeguarding national sovereignty.
