Fake GST Registration Drive

Instruction No. 01/2023-GST dated May 4th, 2023

The issue of unscrupulous elements misusing the identity of other persons to obtain fake/ bogus registration under GST, with an intention to defraud the Government exchequer, was deliberated during the National Co-ordination Meeting of the State and Central GST officers held at New Delhi on 24th April 2023. The menace of fake registrations and issuance of bogus invoices for passing of fake ITC has become a serious problem, wherein fraudulent people engage in dubious and complex transactions, causing revenue loss to the government.

Therefore, it was agreed that a nation-wide effort in the form of a Special Drive should be launched on All-India basis to detect such suspicious/ fake registrations and thus, the CBIC has issued guidelines for such concerted action on fake dealers/ fake billers in a mission mode. The Special All-India Drive would be launched by all Central and State Tax administrations during the period 16th May, 2023 to 15th July, 2023.
