Chandni Chowk Tax Raids

The department's surveillance has been high in Chandni Chowk after cash worth Rs 35 crore was seized in currency notes of Rs 2,000 from a private vault last week.

Chasing a jeweller who allegedly sold gold worth 600 crores, tax officials found 20 fake accounts at an Axis Bank branch in Noida near Delhi today, with deposits of 60 crores after the notes ban. 24 Axis Bank employees are being investigated over suspicious transactions, a top official said.

Income Tax officers have in a raid allegedly unearthed 44 fake accounts at a branch of Axis Bank in central Delhi's Chandni Chowk. Tax officials said about Rs 100 crore in old notes have been deposited in these accounts since November 8, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi banned 500 and 1000 rupee notes to combat black money and money laundering.

Shopkeepers in the Walled city's Chandni Chowk in Old Delhi closed down their shops early on Thursday following "rumours" of raids by income tax department.
