DGGI Granted Powers to Block Online Money Gaming Apps Evading GST

The Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI) has been granted enhanced powers to block online money gaming apps that evade GST. This decision is part of a broader crackdown on the online gaming industry, which has seen rapid growth but also significant issues with tax evasion. Many gaming apps have been found to operate without paying GST, causing revenue loss to the government. The new powers enable the DGGI to take swift action against such apps by blocking them, ensuring they comply with tax regulations. This move aims to promote fair play in the sector and safeguard tax revenues.
