Chhattisgarh Uncovers Massive GST Evasion Scheme

Officials in Chhattisgarh discovered a large scheme where over 170 fake companies were created to avoid paying taxes.

A tax consultant named Mohmmad Farhan Sorathia is believed to be the mastermind.

These fake companies were making false bills to avoid paying the Goods and Services Tax (GST).

Just 26 of these companies created fake bills worth a lot of money, even though they didn't have much actual business.

The government estimates they lost a significant amount of money because of this.

Officials searched Sorathia's office and found evidence of the scheme.

The investigation is ongoing to find out the full extent of the fraud.
