Recent Legal Updates in Anti-Corruption Laws in India I Key Supreme Court & High Court Developments
Recent judicial developments in India have significantly shaped the interpretation of anti-corruption laws, particularly the Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988 (PC Act) and the new criminal provisions under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), 2023 and Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), 2023. Courts have reaffirmed the mandatory requirement of proving the demand for illegal gratification as essential for conviction, clarified the role and validity of sanction for investigation and prosecution, and introduced the concept of deemed sanction to prevent procedural delays. Further, the 2018 amendments emphasize corporate liability and criminalize the act of bribe-giving, aligning India with global anti-corruption standards. These updates reflect a maturing legal framework focused on both protecting honest officials and ensuring accountability for corruption.
