<P> The concept of money bills in India came to the forefront during the enactment of the Aadhar Act , 2016 . In spite of resistance by the opposition , the Aadhaar Bill was certified as a ' money bill ' by the Speaker of the Lower House . The Upper House proposed certain amendments , but ultimately the BJP - dominated Lower House rejected the amendments suggested by the Upper House and unilaterally enacted the Aadhar Act , 2016 . Immediately thereafter , Jairam Ramesh , a senior Congress leader , challenged the speaker 's decision to treat the Aadhar Bill as a ' money bill ' before the Supreme Court of India . Article 110 ( 3 ) of the Constitution of India categorically states that ' if any question arises whether a Bill is a Money Bill or not , the decision of the Speaker of the House of the People thereon shall be final ' . Therefore , one of the prime constitutional questions before the Supreme Court is whether it can review the speaker 's certificate classifying a bill as a ' money bill ' . In three prior cases , the Supreme Court of India has refused to review the Speaker 's certificate . However , some commentators have argued that the Court 's earlier judgements were incorrect and Article 110 ( 3 ) made the Speaker 's decision `` final '' for the purpose of the two Houses of the Parliament , not for the Supreme Court of India . This argument is further supported by the fact that in Kihoto Hollohan vs Zachillhu ( AIR 1993 SC 412 ) , the `` final '' decision of the speaker regarding disqualification of members of the House under the Tenth Schedule of the Indian Constitution was held to be a judicial decision subject to judicial review . This suggests that the `` final '' status given by the Indian constitution does not automatically immune the Indian speaker 's decision or certificate from judicial review . In view of this crucial constitutional question , it has been suggested that the Supreme Court in Jairam Ramesh v. Union of India should create a constitution bench of at least nine judges to settle the law on this issue . </P>
