Income tax shock: Factory worker in UP gets £ 11 crore over 'fees'; Cleaner, SAP Seller Debt Crores | Today news
An AligarH factory worker, a cleaner and a sap vendor was left in shock and distress after receiving income tax notifications that have colored rupees in unpaid taxes over the past two weeks, NDTV reports. The bizarre incident expressed concern about identity fraud and the abuse of Aadhaar and Pan details. Among the victims is Yogesh Sharma, a factory worker that produces Springs for locks. His financial condition is so bad that his electricity was cut off because he could not afford to pay the bill. His fight worsened when he received an income tax notice demanding £ 11.12. “The notice is March 20, saying that I owe the Income Tax Division £ 11.12 crore (£ 11,11,85,991). I’ve never even heard of such an amount, much less. My wife and I haven’t eaten the notice yet. said. Karan Kumar, a cleaner who earns £ 15,000 a month under a contract with the State Bank of India, was another victim. He received a tax notice for £ 33.89. “I received the notice at about 4pm on Saturday. I have no idea how it happened. I try to investigate it and wait for the first information report to be registered. I suspect my pan card and aadhair were abused,” Kumar explained. The third case is that of Mohammed Raees, a small sap vendor, who handed a notice for £ 7.8 to tax money. “I’ve never seen so much money” “I don’t know why this notice was issued. I just sell juice. I’ve never seen so much money. What should I do now? We approached the IT authorities who asked me if I shared my personal documents with someone. I said I’ve never done it, ‘Raees said. His friend Sohail expressed disbelief and said, ‘If Raees were a millionaire, would he run a SAP shop? This is definitely a case of fraud. ‘ With several issues coming up in Aligarh within two weeks, the authorities suspect the abuse of Aadhaar and Pan details, possibly by fraudsters using stolen identities to carry out high value transactions. Investigations are now underway to determine the real culprits behind these shocking tax notices. Catch all the business news, the news reports and the latest news updates on Live Mint.
