No more fishing inquiries, GST officials told

New Delhi: Tax officials must avoid "fishing inquiries" into goods and service tax (GST) related matters, specify the nature of the investigation in formal letters to designated company officials, and avoid vague expressions in letters and summons, under new guidelines from the Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI).

This is part of the authority's effort to put in place procedures that are in sync with ease of doing business, said two persons informed about the development, one of them a government official.
