In a major crackdown on luxury car tax evasion, officials attached to the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence and Customs have launched a nationwide operation, codenamed 'Numkhor', with Kerala emerging as a key focus area. Among the notable sites are the residences of actors Prithviraj and Dulquer Salmaan, highlighting the operation's wide-ranging scope. Officials, however, though they reached the actors' homes, were unable to locate the suspected vehicles. Customs officials, working closely with the Motor Vehicles Department, are also conducting thorough checks at prominent car showrooms across the state. Officials emphasised that while the homes of high-profile individuals have drawn attention, the operation is systematic and targets both showrooms and individual importers suspected of tax evasion.
