The State GST department inspected shops of four bullion traders in Ludhiana’s Sarafa Bazar. Sources said the action was taken on instructions from deputy commissioner, state taxes Randhir Kaur. It also comes close on the heels of a DRI raid in Sarafa Bazar a few days ago.
Sources said officials led by assistant commissioner, state taxes Sumandeep Kaur took documents into their possession besides checking the stock available. The inspections have been conducted on suspicion of tax evasion by some of the parties. DCST Randhir Kaur said, “Four inspections were conducted today at Kashish jewellers, K C traders, AdiShakti Jewelers and Miglani Traders. During inspection, stock has been taken and documents impounded for verification.”
