presence and to recover/seize the incriminating documents, as illegal, arbitrary and
contrary to the provisions of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and violative
of fundamental rights under Articles 14, 19(1)(g), 21 and 300(A) of the Constitution of
India and also violative of principles of natural justice and consequently to set aside the
aforesaid proceedings.
Whereas, the writ petition No.21403 of 2020 is filed challenging the proceedings in
F.No.DGGSTII/VZU/INV/GST/13/2019, dated 06.03.2020 issued by the 3rd
respondent extending the attachment of petitioner’s locker No.39 and consequential
letter in F.No.DGGI/VZU/INV/GST/13/2019/2044, dated 09.11.2020 issued by the
Deputy Director on the approval of the 3rd respondent informing the 6th respondent –
Branch Manager, Lakshmi Vilas Bank that 5th respondent is authorized to open bank
locker of the petitioner and Smt. P. Usha Rani and her son P. Bhanu Prakash in their
presence on 17.11.2020, as illegal, arbitrary and contrary to the provisions of the Central
Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and its Rules, and violative of fundamental rights
under Articles 14, 19(1)(g) and 300(A) of the Constitution of India and also violative of
principles of natural justice and consequently to set aside the aforesaid proceedings.
2. The case of the respondent department as can be seen from their counter is
thus:
a. The writ petitioner with the assistance of his business accomplices passed fake
Input Tax Credit (ITC) invoices on large scale in the name of different
fictitious/shell firms within the States of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana during
the period July, 2017 to February, 2019 without actual supply of goods in violation
of CGST Act, 2017 and Rules. The investigation initiated by the Officers of
Director General of GST (Intelligence), Visakhapatnam Zonal Unit revealed the
said fact and they conducted searches in some of the premises of those
fictitious/shell firms operated by V.V Subba Reddy. The searches were conducted
in the places like Guntur, Vijayawada, Narsaraopeta, Hyderabad etc., and they
revealed that no business firms have operated from those premises and the CGST
registrations were taken fraudulently in the names of different firms using wrong
credentials/addresses with a view to passing of ITC by issuing fake tax invoices
without actual supply of goods. Investigation further revealed that around 90
different firms are operated by V.V Subba Reddy for the purpose of claiming ITC
by issue of fake tax invoices during the period and these firms operated in a
network so as to conceal evasion. Some of the fictitious/shell firms, where
GST Update Month of June-2021 || Online Publication- 18.06.2021 P a g e | 28
LTG PUBLICATION PVT LTD
searches were conducted, have admittedly purchased the fake tax invoices without
actual receipt of goods from the firms operated by V.V Subba Reddy.
Investigation is still under progress.
b. The respondent officials have arrested Vennapusa Venkata Subba Reddy on
11.03.2019 for violation of Section 132(1)(b) and Section 132(1)(c) of CGST Act,
2017 and fraudulently passing on ITC by issuing fake tax invoices without actual
supply of goods in the name of different fictitious firms. Learned Judge of
Economic Offences Court, Visakhapatnam remanded Vennapusa Venkata Subba
Reddy to judicial custody on 12.03.2019 and later conditional bail was granted to
him on 18.06.2019 with a direction to appear before the Investigating Officer once
in a week.
c. From the statements of the Jaluri Sai Babu and some others, it is clear that there
are a number of business accomplices of Vennapusa Venkata Subba Reddy who
associated with him in creation of fictitious firms by collecting credentials from
different individuals for the purpose of issue of fake tax invoices for fraudulent
passing on ITC. In this background, the bank accounts of the fictitious firms were
provisionally attached in the interest of protecting the Government revenue. As a
part of it, the bank Locker No.39 standing in the name of the petitioner was also
ordered for provisional attachment on 08.03.2019 in the interest of Government
revenue and with a reasonable belief that some incriminating documents/records
relating to the case under investigation and cash might be secreted in those lockers.
d. Subsequent to the release of Vennapusa Venkata Subba Reddy on bail on
18.06.2019, the 3rd respondent addressed a letter dated 02.07.2019 to the Branch
manager, Lakshmi Vilas Bank, Guntur and sent a copy to the petitioner inter alia
intimating that the authorization was given to Sri Bhaskar Prasad/the 4th
respondent in W.P.No.8755 of 2019 to open and search the bank locker No.39
standing in the name of the petitioner on 10.07.2019. However, the said date was
postponed to 17.11.2020 vide letter dated 09.11.2020 of the Deputy Director. In
the meanwhile, the petitioner filed the present writ petitions.
e. The contention of the respondents is that the bank accounts were attached and
lockers were sought to be opened as a part of the investigation and by following
the CGST Act and Rules and therefore, the petitioner cannot claim any violation
of his rights.

3. Heard Sri V.V. Lakshmi Narayana, learned counsel for petitioner and Sri M.V.J.K.
Kumar, Senior Standing Counsel for Central Excise, Customs and Service Tax
representing respondent Nos.1 to 5.
4. The main contention of the learned counsel for petitioner is that while attaching the
bank locker No.39 vide impugned proceedings, no show cause notice was served on the
petitioner to offer his explanation. So also the bank locker number-39 of the petitioner
was freezed and no opportunity was given to the petitioner to submit his explanation.
Due to freezing of locker, the petitioner is suffering a lot. Hence, principles of natural
justice were infringed. Learned counsel vehemently argued that the petitioner has not
committed any offences as alleged. He thus, prayed to allow the writ petition.
a. Per contra, Sri M.V.J.K. Kumar, representing the respondents, vehemently
opposed the writ petitions arguing that the petitioner opened around 90 shell
companies and created fake invoices without actual supply of goods and thus
cheated Government. He would submit that the investigation is in the prime stage
and department reasonably believes that opening of the lockers of the petitioner
and other shell companies will provide necessary documents and money etc.,
connected to the case. He thus prayed to dismiss the writ petition.
5. The point for consideration is whether the there are merits in the writ petitions to
allow?
6. We gave our anxious consideration to the above respective submissions. A perusal of
the remand report, a copy of which is filed along with the material papers by the
petitioner would show that the Senior Intelligence Officer levelled allegations against the
petitioner that he was indulged in issue of fake GST invoices in the name of more than
70 fictitious/non-operating firms created by him at different locations in the States of
Andhra Pradesh and Telangana without actual supply of goods to facilitate availment of
irregular input tax credit and thereby defrauded the Government’s tax revenue. It is
further alleged that search operations were conducted in the registered office premises
of different enterprises and also the premises of the accountant of the petitioner and
incriminating documents were recovered. Scrutiny of the documents revealed that the
petitioner created 70 different fictitious/shell firms in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana
for taking GST registrations. The modus operandi of the petitioner was that he opened
fictitious firms only on paper to issue fake GST invoices showing supply of iron and
steel goods, chemicals, battery scrap, led etc. This fictitious firms generally operated in
three levels. The firms operating at first level in the chain, will issue fake invoices without
actual supply of goods in the name of firms operating at second level without any
GST Update Month of June-2021 || Online Publication- 18.06.2021 P a g e | 30
LTG PUBLICATION PVT LTD
corresponding purchases and thus first level firms will neither pay GST nor file monthly
GSTR -3B returns. The second level companies issue GST invoices in the name of firms
operating at third level basing on the fake GST invoices issued by the 1st level firms and
these second level firms show payment of GST utilizing irregular input tax credit taken
basing on the invoice issued by the first level firms and accordingly, file monthly GSTR-
3B returns. In turn, the firms operating at third level issue fake GST invoices without
actual supply of goods to different business firms/companies in consideration for
commission and the firms operating at third level show payment of GST utilizing the
irregularly generated ITC basing on the invoices issued by the second level firms and
accordingly file monthly returns. Thus, there will be no money, bank transactions at the
first and second levels. However, bank accounts are opened with Lakshmi Vilas Bank in
the name of firms operating at third level showing receipt of sale consideration through
banking channels from different business firms/companies in whose name fake GST
invoices are issued for passing on ITC. In this process, the petitioner has issued fake
GST invoices with a total turnover of Rs.397,28,11,944/- without supply of goods to
different business firms/companies by passing on a total fraudulent input tax credit of
Rs.61,30,33,274/- in respect of 21 firms, out of more than 70 firms created by him and
thus caused huge loss to the Government exchequer. The investigation is stated to be
pending.
a. In furtherance of investigation, the Senior Intelligence Officer has attached the
bank accounts and lockers of some of the companies on the apprehension that they
are operating as shell companies for Vennapusa Venkata Subba Reddy. Therefore,
the locker No.39 of the petitioner was freezed under Section 83 of CGST Act, 2017
and decided to open through the authorized Officer.
b. Having regard to the above facts and circumstance and also in view of the
fact that the matter has been seized by the learned Special Judge for
Economic Offences-cum-IV Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge,
Visakhapatnam and also considering that the investigation is in crucial
stage, we deem it not apposite to consider the prayer of the writ petitioner.
On the other hand, without expressing any opinion on merits of petitioner’s
case, we consider it apt to direct the petitioner to approach Special Judge for
Economic Offences-cum-IV Additional Metropolitan Sessions Judge,
Visakhapatnam for appropriate relief.

7. Accordingly, the writ petitions are disposed of giving liberty to the petitioner to
approach the Court of Special Judge for Economic Offences-cum-IV Additional
Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Visakhapatnam and file an application seeking appropriate
relief in which case the said Court shall consider the same and after hearing both parties,
pass an appropriate order in accordance with governing law and rules expeditiously. No
costs.
As a sequel, interlocutory applications, if any, pending for consideration shall stand
closed.
