The company told the court that it did not have any link with the Aam Aadmi Party leader Jain as it sought quashing of income tax notice issued to it as well as setting aside of the proceedings initiated by the department.

The firm had told the tax department that it had duly declared all its income and Jain had nothing to do with it and company's directors h d also paid tax of Rs.3.72 crore.
