SG Mehta: Nobody can get to know including the Central Government. I can show from the scheme

CJI: Retribution is not avoided by the scheme. I'll tell you the simple reason. Under the Companies Act, now modified, a company doesn't have to disclose to which political party it has contributed. But it has to show how much it has contributed.

CJI: So a company says I've contributed 400 cr this FY. Now the party in power knows how much has come to it in terms of Electoral Bonds from that company.

SG Mehta: It can never know.

CJI: No, the party ofcourse knows.
