Supreme Court allows above 2000cc diesel cars for Delhi [1]

Large diesel cars, mainly SUVs, can once again be sold in Delhi, the Supreme Court has said, but a green fine will have to be paid by manufacturers or dealers to compensate for polluting the city's air. The tax - 1% of the ex-showroom or retail price - must be deposited in a designated state-run bank, the top court said.
