Highest Direct Tax-paying Companies: The highest tax-paying companies have accounted for nearly 19% of the government's provisional gross corporate tax collection, totalling Rs 2.2 lakh crore in 2024.
On March 22, 2025, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) filed a closure report nearly five years after actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death. The report concluded that his death was a “suicide” and exonerated his then-girlfriend, Rhea Chakraborty, and her family from all accusations. Soon after the development, several prominent figures criticised the media coverage against Chakraborty in 2020, demanding an apology.

On August 6, 2020, the CBI filed an FIR naming Rhea Chakraborty, her parents, brother, and two others, accusing them of charges such as abetment of suicide, cheating, wrongful restraint, theft, criminal breach of trust, and criminal intimidation under the Indian Penal Code. This FIR was based on a complaint filed by Rajput’s father with the Patna police, alleging that these individuals were responsible for pushing Rajput to take his own life.
Following Rajput’s death in 2020, the Mumbai police had initially registered an Accidental Death Report. A month later, Rajput’s father K K Singh filed an FIR with the Patna police against Chakraborty and others. The actor then moved the Supreme Court with a petition to transfer the case to Mumbai. Meanwhile, the Bihar government had transferred the investigation to the CBI.
