In Brief

State Bank of Mysore sought special leave under Article 136 of the Constitution to challenge a High Court order passed in an Income Tax Appeal. The Supreme Court found no grounds to exercise its discretionary jurisdiction and dismissed the Special Leave Petition. The judgment affirms the principle that the Court's power under Article 136 is discretionary and sparingly invoked only in cases involving substantial questions of law, public importance, or clear miscarriage of justice.
