KGF Babu Fined for Rolls-Royces Previously Owned by Celebrities
Imagine a businessman named KGF Babu who loves fancy cars.
He bought two super-expensive Rolls-Royce cars from famous actors, Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan.
But he didn't pay the taxes to use them in Bengaluru.
The government found out and sent officials to check his cars.
They discovered the cars were being used in Bengaluru for too long without paying the required taxes, so now he has to pay big fines.
The cars still have the famous actors' names on the documents, and the government wants to make sure everyone follows the rules, no matter how fancy their cars are.
RTO officials raided KGF Babu's residence over unpaid road taxes.
The raid targeted luxury vehicles, including two Rolls-Royces once owned by Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom faces a fine of Rs 18.53 lakh and the Ghost Rs 19.73 lakh.
The vehicles, registered in Maharashtra, operated in Bengaluru past the one-year limit without proper tax clearance.
KGF Babu, who bought the cars years ago, has not yet transferred ownership.
