Mumbai : The Income Tax Department carried out search and survey operations on a group based in Mumbai on 08.02.2021. This group is mainly engaged in the business of manufacturing of Gutkha, Pan masala and allied substances, besides having operations in hospitality sector. The searches were carried out across many locations in India and concluded on 13.02.2021.

The search and seizure action has led to detection of foreign assets lying with a company registered in tax-haven British Virgin Islands (BVI) with an office in Dubai and controlled and managed by the Chairman of the group. The net worth of the BVI company is Rs. 830 crore created by siphoning of funds from India. This fund has been round tripped to India in the form of share premium amounting to Rs. 638 crore in the flagship companies of the group. During the search action, various digital evidences and forensic analysis have yielded email communication, establishing control and management of the company with the promoter of the group searched. One of the employees, who was also a shareholder in the BVI company, was identified and cross examined with the promoter. It has been accepted by the parties involved that the employee was not aware about being a shareholder in the company and he had signed papers on the instruction of the main promoter.
