This Act formally removes the Uttar Pradesh Sugarcane Cess Act, 1956, from the state's statute books. The 1956 law was previously declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court of India in 1960 because it exceeded the state's legislative authority. Although the 1956 Act ceased to be effective decades ago, this new legislation serves as a formal administrative cleanup to ensure the legal record is accurate and up to date. It does not impose new taxes or regulations but simply acknowledges that the old law is no longer valid, providing clarity for legal researchers and the public regarding the current state of sugarcane taxation laws.
