Consider the following statements regarding Financial Bills in the Indian Parliament:

1. A Financial Bill (I) governed under Article 117(1) can be introduced only in the Lok Sabha and requires the prior recommendation of the President.
2. A Financial Bill (II) governed under Article 117(3) can be introduced in either House of Parliament without the recommendation of the President for its introduction, but cannot be passed by either House unless the President recommends its consideration.
3. The Rajya Sabha possesses equal powers with the Lok Sabha to reject or amend both Financial Bill (I) and Financial Bill (II), exactly as in the case of an Ordinary Bill.

Which of the statements given above are correct?

  1. A
    1 and 2 only
  2. B
    2 and 3 only
  3. 1, 2 and 3Cevap
  4. D
    1 and 3 only

Cevap

All three statements (1, 2, and 3) are correct.
All three statements are constitutionally accurate. Under Article 117(1), Financial Bill (I) shares two characteristics with a Money Bill: introduction exclusively in the Lok Sabha and mandatory prior recommendation of the President. Under Article 117(3), Financial Bill (II) does not require recommendation for introduction, but cannot be passed by either House unless recommended by the President for consideration. Finally, both Financial Bills (I) and (II) follow ordinary legislative procedure regarding Rajya Sabha's right to amend or reject them.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze Financial Bill (I) provisions under Article 117(1)
Financial Bill (I) contains matters of Article 110 plus general legislation. Like a Money Bill, it can only be introduced in Lok Sabha and requires the President's prior recommendation. Thus, Statement 1 is correct.
Verify procedural requirements for introducing Financial Bill (I).
2
Analyze Financial Bill (II) provisions under Article 117(3)
Financial Bill (II) involves expenditure from the Consolidated Fund of India but no Article 110 matters. It can be introduced in either House without prior recommendation, but requires presidential recommendation prior to consideration for passage. Thus, Statement 2 is correct.
Verify procedural requirements for Financial Bill (II).
3
Evaluate the legislative powers of Rajya Sabha regarding Financial Bills (I) and (II)
Beyond the introduction stage for Financial Bill (I), both Financial Bills (I) and (II) are treated as Ordinary Bills. Rajya Sabha has full powers to reject or amend them, and joint sittings under Article 108 apply in case of deadlock. Thus, Statement 3 is correct.
Determine House parity and Rajya Sabha powers over non-money financial legislation.
