Entry tax in Madhya Pradesh has been interimly stayed by MP High Court taking note of stay of Entry Tax in Punjab and in Haryana. It is to be noted that the cases related to constitutional validity of entry tax as levied in Haryana and in other states is still pending in Jindal Steels case with the Supreme Court.
