An Ahmedabad businessman, Anilkumar Babulal Runthala, was denied bail by the Sessions Court due to his involvement in a significant GST refund scam worth ₹175.93 crore. Runthala is accused of creating 16 bogus firms and using fake invoices to claim fraudulent GST refunds between 2020 and 2021. The court emphasized that ongoing investigations into the scam would be compromised if he was released. Notably, ₹39.11 crore was transferred to Runthala's accounts. This case highlights India's intensified crackdown on GST-related fraud.
