Clandestine sale of goods - Details to be noted

[Rohit K]

Hi,

I have come across many companies who are doing clandestine clearances ...

Especially plywood companies ... How these people are doing these ... and how the department can be informed with proper evidence ...

You may Directly approach to the Jurisdictional Commissioner or Write to CBIC - GST along with concrete proofs and evidences. Revenue Department may also provide reward to you.

Sh.Rohit K Ji,

Information to be supplied to the department must be true. In case information proved incorrect/false/untrue, the department can take action against the informer. So be careful. 

It is my sincere and honest advice to you. Decision is yours. 

[Sadanand Bulbule]

I endorse the cautious advice of the experts. Factual details as regards to evasion of tax should be verifiable with incontrovertible evidence. It should not be out frustration and anger.

[Shilpi Jain]

In many cases department is also aware of such stuff. 

AI Summary

Clandestine sale of goods: report verifiable evidence to GST authorities for investigation, but beware penalties for false reports. Clandestine sale of goods, exemplified by plywood clandestine clearances, should be reported to the jurisdictional GST Commissioner or central GST authority with concrete, verifiable evidence. Informer reward schemes may apply, but claimants must ensure accuracy because submission of incorrect or false information can lead to departmental action; some cases may already be known to the department, so factual, incontrovertible evidence is essential.
