Introduction to Money Laundering, PMLA and ED Law in India: A Complete Guide
The Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002 arms the Enforcement Directorate with extraordinary powers — to summon, search, attach, and arrest. This cornerstone guide introduces PMLA and ED law in India in plain language. It explains the offence of money laundering under Section 3, proceeds of crime and scheduled offences, the ECIR, arrest safeguards under Section 19, attachment and confiscation, the Section 45 twin conditions for bail, and trial before Special Courts. Every concept is backed by verified Supreme Court rulings — from Vijay Madanlal Choudhary and Pankaj Bansal to Tarsem Lal and Manish Sisodia — making this the starting point of our complete PMLA series.
