A college student in Madhya Pradesh has filed a police complaint after transactions totaling Rs 46 crore occurred from his bank account, as reported by news agency ANI.
Pramod Kumar Dandotiya, a resident of Gwalior, discovered the transactions only after receiving a notice from the income tax department. According to the notice, a company had been registered using his PAN card and was being operated in Mumbai and Delhi in 2021.
Dandotiya, who is in his 20s and currently attending college, expressed shock upon receiving the notice. He alleges that his PAN card was misused to register the firm and conduct transactions worth Rs 46 crore in his name.
“I am a college student in Gwalior. After the notice from Income Tax and GST, I came to know that a company has registered through my PAN card which is being operated in Mumbai and Delhi 2021. I do not know how my PAN card has been misused and how the transactions have been done,” he stated.
Despite his efforts to contact the income tax department after receiving the information, Dandotiya claims he received no assistance. He also faced challenges in filing a police complaint until Friday when he approached the office of the Additional Superintendent of Police and lodged his complaint.
Additional Superintendent of Police (ASP) Shiyaz K M confirmed the receipt of Dandotiya’s application, stating, “Today, an application has been received from a youth that transactions amount of more than Rs 46 crore has been made from his bank account. The documents in this regard are being checked. The PAN card has been misused, a company has been registered through it and transactions of such a huge amount have been done.”
The matter is currently under investigation.
