Delhi Finance Minister Atishi on Saturday said tax evasion notices worth ₹1.5-lakh crore to online gaming companies will finish them and vowed to seek their withdrawal at the GST Council meeting during the day.
She said the sector employed over 50,000 youths and attracted ₹17,000 crore foreign investments, therefore it is important to withdraw the notices to protect the industry.
An "unstable, erratic tax environment" will deter foreign investors in the online gaming industry and impact the overall start-up ecosystem in the country, she said.
