Indian-Origin Restaurant Owners Sentenced For $450,000 Tax Evasion In New Zealand

Darpan News Desk IANS, 28 May, 2015 10:20 AM
    A New Zealandcourt on Thursday sentenced Indian-origin restaurant owners to eight months' home detention over four charges of tax evasion.
     
    Taruun and Shetall Khurana, who own the "Indian Kitchen" restaurant in Howick, an eastern suburb of Auckland, did not declare more than 1 million New Zealand dollars ($724,665) in cash sales over a six-year period, the New Zealand Herald reported.
     
    Inland Revenue investigations manager Patrick Goggin said the couple had deliberately avoided paying nearly $450,000 in tax.
     
    "These people did not declare a large number of their cash sales and under-reported the real amount of wages they paid staff. This was all done for their personal benefit," he added.
