The Electoral Commission makes public new data on electoral bonds: see the full list
The Election Commission on Sunday made public new data on electoral bonds, which it had submitted to the Supreme Court in sealed covers and was later asked to place in the public domain.
These details are believed to cover the period before April 12, 2019. Details of electoral bonds issued after this date were made public by the poll panel last week.
Political parties had kept electoral bond data in a sealed cover as directed by the Supreme Court’s interim order dated April 12, 2019, the poll panel said in a statement.

“The details thus received from political parties were deposited in the Supreme Court without opening the sealed covers. In pursuance of the Supreme Court order dated March 15, 2024, the Supreme Court Registry has returned physical copies along with a digitized record thereof in a pen drive in a sealed cover. “The Election Commission of India today uploaded the data received in digitized form from the Registry of the Supreme Court on electoral bonds on its website,” EC said.
