Bengaluru Ferrari Owner Pays Rs 1.42 Crore in Tax Evasion Case
Someone in Bengaluru was driving a fancy red Ferrari without paying the road tax.
The tax people found the car and told the owner they had to pay up.
Since the car was registered in another state, they had not paid tax in the local area.
The owner quickly paid about Rs 1.42 crore to avoid trouble.
The government is now looking at other luxury cars to make sure the owners are paying their taxes.
