GST intelligence body widens investigation on fintech firm BharatPe

Audit at BharatPe had suggested deeper investigation on deals with non-existent vendors.





The Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI) has widened its probe on BharatPe after its earlier investigation had found the merchant-focused fintech firm had issued invoices to non-existent vendors, said officials aware of the development.

An audit conducted by professional services firm Alvarez and Marsal had pointed out the fintech firm’s dealings with fake or non-existent vendors.
