Chandigarh, July 21

On the directions of Excise and Taxation Commissioner Mandip Singh Brar, the Excise and Taxation Department, UT, today conducted a search on the business premises of M/S Romeela Chemist, Sector 7-C, Chandigarh.

The search began at noon and lasted till 7 pm. It was conducted under the supervision of ETOs Amanpreet Singh and Maanek Ahlawat.

The chemist mainly deals in medicines, sanitisers, etc, and was not filing GSTR-3B monthly tax returns from January 2020 onwards in spite of doing regular business.

Certain documents and a computer system have been seized by the department for verification.

The entire stock checking has also been done by the inspecting team.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
