Based on the decision of the Supreme Court of India in the case of Ajay Hassia v. Khalid Mujib Sehravardi, which of the following Statement is correct.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
Both statements correctly describe the State-instrumentality test. Deep and pervasive government control may indicate that a body is an agency of the State, while regulation that applies to an otherwise independent body is insufficient by itself. Ajay Hasia supplied the indicators, and Pradeep Kumar Biswas later clarified that the overall financial, functional and administrative control must be assessed cumulatively.
