Former BharatPe managing director Ashneer Grover has paid ₹7.1 crore advance tax for the assessment year 2022-23 and his wife Madhuri Jain has paid ₹1.1 crore advance tax, a source said on March 9.

“Ashneer Grover paid ₹7.1 crore advance tax on March 8 and Madhuri Jain has paid ₹1.1 crore as advance tax for assessment year 2022-23. “This makes him one of the highest taxpayers among startup founders for two years in a row,” the source, who did not wish to be named, said.

A query sent to Mr. Grover did not elicit any reply. He is currently under the lens of tax authorities for tax evasion due to alleged misappropriation of funds at BharatPe.
