The Ghana Revenue Authority (GRA) has warned businesses failing to comply with their tax obligations.
The GRA says it will come after such businesses.
The Authority on Friday shut down six companies for tax evasion offences.
Tyr exercise forms part of efforts by the GRA to boost revenue mobilization.
Speaking to the media after the closure of the facilities, the Enforcement Manager of GRA, Joseph Annan said “We will always be on the field. We will knock on doors but if you run today, you may not run forever because we will surely knock on your door. Companies must do the right thing by paying all their taxes”.
The Domestic Tax Revenue Division of the GRA, shut down operations of the UnderBridge event Centre located in East Legon for failing to register for Value Added Tax (VAT).
Five other firms including four cold stores at Tema and a beverage distribution company; Josh Nartey ventures were also closed.
”We got intel that they were not registered. We also did our own background checks and confirmed it.”
”We have locked up the place. They must do the needful by registering, and then we look at the sanctions for non-registration, after which we will open up the place”, Mr. Annan added.
