As much as Rs 7.6 crore was paid to allegedly fake Human Resources consultancies, while Rs 1.66 crore was paid as penalty to GST authorities. Another Rs 71.76 crore was allegedly siphoned off via fictitious transactions. Sources said on Wednesday that the total amount could be over Rs 81 crore, and the investigation is still on.
