The Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) has drawn up a list of more than 113,000 shell companies as the government prepares for another onslaught on black money. The database compiled by SFIO has red-flagged more than 80,000 companies suspected to be shell entities while it has confirmed illegal activities in 16,537 of them.
The government will take appropriate action after receiving responses, the corporate affairs ministry said.SFIO is part of the task force set up in February last year by the Prime Minister’s Office to crack down on shell companies that are used to launder black money. The task force has also determined a set of markers that will be used in identifying more shell companies. All law enforcement agencies will also follow a standard operating procedure, prepared by the Central Economic Intelligence Bureau (CEIB), for sharing documents.
