The charges are levied on Delhi-NCR region, which covers the territorial jurisdictions of Delhi and its neighbouring districts in Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, and Rajasthan. (Correct - The Supreme Court's order relates to the imposition of a green cess on diesel vehicles in the Delhi-NCR region.)

The amount so collected will be deposited in the Consolidated Fund of India. (Incorrect - The amount collected from the green cess is generally directed towards environmental and pollution control measures, and the Supreme Court's order may specify how and where the funds are to be utilized. However, it may not necessarily be deposited directly into the Consolidated Fund of India.)
