CVC detects Rs 1,000 crore tax evasion in CWG projects

New Delhi: The Central Vigilance Commission has detected tax evasion of about Rs 1,000 crore by government departments and private companies in carrying out Commonwealth Games-related works. Vigilance Commissioner R Srikumar said Rs 1,000 crore evasion was detected with the help of a multi-jurisdiction investigation platform, comprising officers from tax and other authorities, developed by CVC to look into the CWG scam.

"In the CVC, we have been trying this (multi jurisdiction investigation platform) out in our direct inquiries into the CWG scam where 37 departments spent over Rs 15,000 crore in 9,000 publicly funded projects," he said. "There have been many inquiries into this and each inquiry and investigation has proceeded to its own conclusions. One unique thing that was noticed in CVC's multi-jurisdictional inquiry was that a huge amount of tax evasion was indulged in by the many players in the scam.

"Many of these taxes, like Income Tax, Service Tax, VAT, etc. were to be deducted at source. The multi jurisdictional platform enabled us to flag tax evasion to the tune of nearly Rs 1,000 crore," Srikumar said. He said by bringing in the tax agencies to work closely and verify these possible tax evasions, after issuing notices to the concerned, the tax authorities have confirmed the receipt of nearly Rs 100 crore of taxes so far.

The Vigilance Commissioner said the probity watchdog is also coming out with a report on Games related irregularities mainly concerning alleged tax evasions. CVC detects Rs 1,000 crore tax evasion in CWG projects
