AAP Seeks Probe Into 58 GST Registrations at Office Address
AAP seeks probe into 58 GST registrations at party office address before Punjab polls · livemint.com

The Aam Aadmi Party says 58 businesses used its office address when registering for tax.

The address is at 1, Canning Lane in New Delhi.

The registrations were made between July 19 and September 15.

AAP leader Saurabh Bharadwaj says this may have been part of a plan to make the party look involved with illegal companies and drug money.

He says businesses normally need documents and identity checks to register.

He believes officials should have questioned the address because it is a government-allotted residence.

AAP says it complained to tax officials and the police on September 19.

The party says it has not received a response.
