DG KPRA told that, the owner of Awais Motors was given full opportunity to clear all the dues in terms of sales tax on services, but despite of many legal notices the owner did not comply which ultimately lead to seal his business and compel KPRA to use its Enforcement rules.
The DG further told that, legal notices have also been issued to other such business holders which are liable to pay Sales Tax on services and if they fail to comply, same action would be initiated against them.
