A Delhi man preparing to file his income-tax return made an unexpected discovery while checking his Annual Information Statement (AIS). Tax records showed a business income of around ₹79.4 crore linked to his PAN, even though he says he had never owned or operated the business, a TOI report stated. The GST-related activity was connected to a business registered at a Mumbai address. The man has told the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of the Delhi Police that he had no knowledge of the firm and had never authorised anyone to use his identity details for the registration. The case has raised concerns over the alleged misuse of PAN and KYC details to create a GST registration and conduct transactions in another person's name.
