Amid some chartered accountants coming under the scanner for alleged fraudulent GST refunds, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman held discussions with a delegation of chartered accountants' apex body Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) on "various issues" on Monday.
The Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) tweeted about the meeting.
In a series of tweets, CBIC said the delegation was also apprised about the suspension of a Deputy Commissioner and a Superintendent of GST in connection with fraudulent GST refunds.
Investigations by the CGST Gurugram are going on into the matter of fraudulent GST refunds. Two chartered accountants were arrested in connection with an alleged Rs 15 crore GST refund scam, a development that also resulted in protests by chartered accountants.
