Hyderabad: Income tax department officials on Friday carried out a large-scale survey operation linked to Hyderabad-based Omega Hospitals across two states, scrutinising financial records and transactions as part of an investigation into suspected tax irregularities and possible income suppression.
The survey, led by the Hyderabad investigation wing of the income tax department, covered nine locations across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh . The operation extended to hospital premises, administrative offices, and locations reportedly linked to key doctors and other individuals associated with the healthcare group. The department is verifying the hospital group’s financial transactions and overall tax compliance. However, the exercise is part of an ongoing investigation, and no finding of tax evasion has been officially established so far. The outcome of the investigation and the nature of any suspected tax discrepancies are yet to be officially disclosed by the department.
