I-T dept conducts survey at Hinduja Global Solutions

The Income Tax department on Wednesday conducted a survey operation at Hinduja Global Solutions, an entity of the Hinduja Group, in Mumbai and some other cities, official sources said.

The survey operation is being undertaken as part of a tax evasion investigation and offices in Mumbai and some other cities are being covered, they said.

According to the I-T law for survey operations, only office premises are being covered.


An email sent by PTI to the company did not elicit response.

Sources said the tax department action is also linked to provisions of the General Anti-Avoidance Rules (GAAR).
