NEW DELHI: The revenue department is planning to set up a committee of tax officers to suggest steps to deal with bogus e-way bills. Many instances of bogus e-way bills and fake invoices have come to the notice of the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC) since April last year.
“Instances on bogus e-way bills based on fake invoices have been detected since April and the tax evasion involved worked out to about Rs 5,000 crore,” an official said.
