The Directorate General of Goods and Services Tax Intelligence (DGGI) Mumbai Zone has issued a notice to popular online gaming company Dream11, claiming a sum of Rs 28,000 crore, sources told CNBC-TV18. Additionally, DGGI Mumbai has sent a notice to Play Games 24X7 claiming Rs 21,000 crore. This move comes after a similar action by the Maharashtra State GST Audit authorities, who had served Dream11 with a notice demanding Rs 18,000 crore. The gaming company had filed a writ petition before the Bombay High Court in response to the show cause notice issued by Maharashtra state GST audit authorities. The DGGI Mumbai Zone, in its notice, accused Dream11 of failing to submit the requisite documents despite several reminders.
