The Income Tax Department has seized over Rs 55 crore of undeclared assets by raiding the premises of the former fund manager of Axis Mutual Fund, some stock brokers, and others. Evidence of large amounts of hidden investment has also been found during the raids.
According to the CBDT, Income Tax officials had started raids on July 28 at the premises of former fund manager and head trader of Axis Mutual Fund, Viresh Joshi, and others. During this, more than 25 locations were searched in Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Bhuj, and Kolkata. These include the hideouts of middlemen and hawala operators.

Viresh Joshi used to give advance information related to business to brokers and middlemen and some people abroad. These people used to make profits in the stock market by misusing this information.
Although the fund manager's name is not available in the evidence found, sources have identified Viresh Joshi. Viresh Joshi and his family members have confessed in their statement that whatever undisclosed amount generated from such transactions was used to get into their bank accounts through shell companies based in Kolkata.
From these accounts, this amount was further deposited in the bank accounts of companies in India and other low-tax countries. The documents and data relating to large-scale unaccounted investments in cash loans, fixed deposits, immovable properties, and their renewals, etc. have been seized, the CBDT said.
