It is alleged that DIAL, operator of Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA), evaded service tax on the licences fee and development charges collected by it from private entities who are developing five star hotels under the Delhi aerocity project, official sources said.
A case of alleged service tax evasion against DIAL has been registered by the Directorate General of Central Excise Intelligence (DGCEI) here and the amount of alleged service tax evasion is about Rs 60 crore, the sources said.
The same may be principal issue in regard to taxability.
“As these facilities are being developed for common use, hence DIAL has informed DGCEI that no service tax is payable on the same,” a DIAL spokesman said in his response to a PTI query.
