..... to have been made to the said 18 firms. Upon investigation, it was found that the said 18 firms had been incorporated/registered by associating persons of limited means like rickshaw pullers etc. and were actually not businessmen.

An amount of about Rs. 6 crores has already been recovered by way of com .....
