According to officials, the action was triggered by complaints of tax evasion, large cash transactions, undeclared income, and the use of fake documents. Investigators suspect that the raids could uncover huge amounts of cash, benami properties, and hidden assets, said sources.

The company reportedly faces charges of irregular financial records and tax evasion. The raid was also being carried out at six locations of the Gokul Kripa Group (BRB Developers, Jaipur). Allegations include undeclared income and suspicious property transactions.
Raids began in the morning and are likely to continue till late at night, sources said. Teams were scanning documents, computer systems, and digital records at all locations, the sources added. Sources hinted at the possibility of large recoveries of cash and incriminating documents.
