In order to control false tax refund claims under Goods and Services Tax (GST), government is considering integrating its network with country’s digital payments regulator, NPCI (Nation Payments Corporation of India). The move is expected to help government tackle the menace of false tax refund claims. “This integration will bring all transactions under the scanner and bank accounts which are verified can be identified easily. The refunds can be tracked and would be sent only to verified bank accounts. This could significantly lower fraud cases. The taxpayers’ bank accounts should be validated by NPCI,” a senior government source said.
