ISLAMABAD: The Directorate of Intelligence and Investigation Inland Revenue has raided three business units in Gujranwala involved in tax evasion.

The Federal Board of Revenue issued a statement here on Wednesday saying three unregistered units were involved in manufacture and supply of taxable goods — sanitary ware, detergents and household gas appliances. During the search, available record was resumed which is being scrutinised and further investigation to this regard is underway.

In continuation of a drive against unregistered persons involved in making taxable supplies who are liable to be signed up under the Sales Tax Act, 1990, the Lahore directorate has carried out action after obtaining search warrants from the area magistrate against the manufacturing/business premises of three unregistered units in Gujranwala.
