Second all-India drive against fake GST registrations to begin on Aug 16 - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

With the detection of close to 22,000 fake registrations involving suspected GST evasion of over Rs 24,000 crore in the first such drive in May, last year, the National Coordination Committee, comprising senior Centre and state tax officers, last month decided to launch a second special drive "to clean up the tax base".

Under the special drive, GST Network, in coordination with Directorate General of Analytics and Risk Management (DGARM), CBIC, will identify suspicious/ high-risk GSTINs, based on detailed data analytics and risk parameters.

Tax officers will launch a two-month long special drive against fake GST registrations on August 16, the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) has said.
