The Income Tax (IT) department on Wednesday carried out searches over 30 locations in Mumbai and Pune and raided the premise of Bollywood actress Taapsee Pannu, film director Anurag Kashyap, and filmmaker Madhu Mantena and Vikas Behl. Several discrepancies were found in the amount including manipulation of income and bogus expenditures. On Thursday, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) released a statement and revealed that they have found tax implications of about Rs 350 crore. The statement read,
“During the search, evidence of huge suppression of income by the leading Film Production house compared to the actual box office collections has been unearthed. The company officials have not been able to explain the discrepancy of around Rs. 300 crore. Evidence related to manipulation and under-valuation of share transactions of the production house amongst the film directors and shareholders, having tax implication of about Rs. 350 crore has been found and is being further investigated. Evidence of cash receipts by the leading actress amounting to Rs 5 crore has been recovered. Further investigation is going on.”
Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut reacted to this and slammed Taapsee Pannu and Anurag Kashyap in tweets. She also pointed out that many of the names were linked with the ‘Me Too’ movement.
