Rajasthan Individual Accused of Establishing Bogus GST Firm in Uttar Pradesh

Authorities have filed charges against a man from Rajasthan for allegedly creating a fraudulent GST firm in Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh. Using fake documents, the accused managed to show sham business dealings totaling over Rs 55 crore, misleading tax authorities about fictitious business activities.

An individual from Rajasthan faces legal action for allegedly setting up a phony GST firm in Bhadohi, Uttar Pradesh. The accusations involve using counterfeit documentation to obtain a GST number and demonstrate nonexistent business transactions worth over Rs 55 crore.

The case unfolded after a field inspection by Deputy Labour Commissioner Kanchan Tiwari at the listed location of M K Enterprises. The inspection revealed no trace of the firm, prompting further inquiry into the premises.

It was discovered that two other legitimate businesses, Ambe Communications and Maa Shakti Enterprises, were operating at the address. Preliminary investigations pointed to Manish Prajapati from Ajmer, Rajasthan, as having obtained the GST number fraudulently in 2024.

Authorities accused Prajapati of registering false purchase and sale transactions exceeding Rs 59 crore. The Deputy Labour Commissioner initiated a complaint, leading to the registration of a case under relevant sections of law, as confirmed by Superintendent Abhinav Tyagi.
