Special Central Bureau of Investigation Judge Arvind Kumar issued the notice to Saxena and posted the matter for hearing on Thursday.
On March 25, a the court had allowed Saxena to become an approver in the AgustaWestland case.
He was granted pardon after the investigating agency supported his application.
