Summary
Central tax authorities are taking proactive measures by partnering with state mining departments to address the issue of illegal mineral extraction and transportation. This collaboration will involve setting up a comprehensive information-sharing system across all CGST areas. This directive is a result of a CAG report identifying critical gaps in intelligence sharing, with the goal of significantly reducing tax evasion in the mining sector.
