<h1>Medchal Anti-Evasion Unit Busts Major GST Fraud; Fake Invoices and Bogus Firms Result in Rs. 67.76 Crore Loss.</h1> Officers from the Medchal Commissionerate's Anti-Evasion unit uncovered a significant GST fraud involving fake invoices, implicating three individuals who created non-existent firms to issue fraudulent invoices. These actions enabled over 200 companies to illegitimately claim input tax credits, defrauding the government of approximately Rs. 67.76 crore. The scheme involved creating about 11 bogus firms, facilitated by an auditor who managed GST registrations and documentation. The fraudulent transactions involved a commission paid in cash, with invoice amounts processed through bank channels. Three individuals have been arrested, while one remains at large, with ongoing investigations and recovery efforts.
