The Income Tax Appellate Tribunal has dismissed Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's plea to make Young India a charitable trust. Rejecting the application, the tribunal said that it is a commercial organization.

The High Court had rejected their application for the reassessment of their income tax for 2011-12 in connection with the National Herald case.The apex court had then allowed them to approach the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal for a swift hearing of the pending appeal challenging the cancellation of registration granted to Young Indian under the Income Tax Act.
