The Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST) Delhi South Commissionerate has arrested one person for alleged GST evasion of ₹16.30 crore. Following an analysis of GST returns, the anti-evasion branch discovered that three interconnected firms, which provide manpower and facility management services, had consistently under-reported their tax obligations.

The arrested individual, who was the director and controlling person for all three firms, admitted to the tax evasion. The offense falls under Section 132(1)(d) of the CGST Act and is considered a cognizable and non-bailable offense due to the evasion amount exceeding ₹5 crore. The accused has been placed in judicial custody for 14 days as the investigation continues to trace the funds and identify any other individuals involved.
