Eleven months after a Rs 3 crore tax notice landed on his doorstep, a Kanpur security guard earning Rs 10,000 a month is still reportedly trying to convince the system he never ran the business. Om Shukla received the GST recovery notice last year over a firm called Om Enterprises, which the department claims did more than Rs 17 crore in business. Shukla says he has never run any such firm. Nearly a year on, he has lost his ration card, his government benefits, and his job, and the case is only now reaching the desk of the Crime Branch.
