- AImposition, abolition, remission, alteration or regulation of any tax
- BAppropriation of moneys out of Consolidated Fund of India
- CImposition of fines by local authority for local purpose
- DCustody of the Consolidated Fund of India or the Contigency Fund of India
Explanation
Under Article 110, a Money Bill covers taxation, borrowing, the Consolidated and Contingency Funds, and appropriation. Article 110(2) expressly says a bill is not a Money Bill merely because it provides for fines or penalties — and fines imposed by a local authority for local purposes are not a money-bill matter. So C is not a provision related to a Money Bill.
