So Near Yet 'Sofa': DRI Cracks Down On Rs 30 Crore Luxury Furniture Import Scam
Last Updated: The investigation revealed a meticulously planned operation to evade customs duties by undervaluing premium furniture sourced from top European brands In a significant recent crackdown on customs fraud, the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) has uncovered a massive scheme involving the import of luxury furniture using fake invoices and dummy companies. Acting on specific intelligence, DRI Mumbai officers raided several locations linked to a well-known luxury furniture brand operating across India. The investigation revealed a meticulously planned operation to evade customs duties by undervaluing premium furniture sourced from top European brands. Instead of declaring the real price, the accused routed payments through shell companies based in Dubai and Singapore. Goods were shipped directly from Europe to India but were declared as unbranded furniture at a fraction of their actual value. This clever paper trail using dummy importers and fake invoices allowed the masterminds to dodge customs duty worth Rs 30 crore. Searches were conducted at offices, warehouses, freight forwarders, and customs brokers connected to the racket. DRI officials stated that the scam involved multiple layers: shell companies abroad, local intermediaries, dummy Importer Exporter Code (IEC) holders, and fabricated paperwork. Once the furniture cleared customs, it was transferred on paper to the luxury brand's name through a proxy intermediary, but in reality, it went directly to the brand's warehouse or high-end clients. In a swift move, DRI arrested the beneficial owner of the brand, the dummy importer, and the local intermediary on July 21 and 22 under the Customs Act, 1962. Officials noted that this is not an isolated case. Just two months ago, in May, DRI uncovered a similar scam worth over Rs 20 crore, again involving luxury furniture brands using front companies to misdeclare imported goods. Such frauds significantly impact government revenue and harm honest businesses that pay their dues. A senior DRI official said, 'These operations create an unfair market for genuine importers and domestic manufacturers. We are determined to expose these networks and plug the leaks." The DRI is now investigating other shell companies, dummy IEC holders, and financial channels linked to the scam. More arrests and wider revelations are expected as the probe continues. view comments First Published: July 23, 2025, 03:24 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Fuel switch checks clear Boeing 787s, 737s in AI fleet
Air India NEW DELHI: Air India said Tuesday it has completed inspections and found no faults in the fuel control switch (FCS) locking mechanism on all its Boeing 787 Dreamliners and AI Express Boeing 737s. The checks followed a July 14 directive from DGCA, which ordered Indian carriers to inspect the FCS on all Boeing aircraft. The move came after the June 12 crash of AI-171 in Ahmedabad. Both engines of the London-bound Dreamliner lost power mid-air soon after take-off. According to preliminary probe, fuel supply was cut off when FCS switches for engines 1 & 2 moved from "run" to "cut-off" - one after the other - with a gap of one second. Investigators have not yet determined what caused the switches to transition. "Air India has completed precautionary inspections on locking mechanism of FCS on Boeing 787 and 737 aircraft in its fleet," the airline said in a statement. "With this, the two airlines have complied with DGCA's July 14 directive. No issues were found." The airline said results have been shared with DGCA and reaffirmed its "commitment to the safety of passengers and crew members". by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas in Dubai | Search Ads Get Info Undo The US Federal Aviation Administration had issued a special airworthiness information bulletin in Dec 2018 warning of potential disengagement of the FCS locking mechanism in some Boeing aircraft.
