Chinese companies dominate the indian smartphone market. There are mainly three names prominent among them, which include xiaomi, Vivo and Oppo. These companies are often in discussion about their phones and their phones are also the best seller in the indian market, but recently all these companies are on the target of the government of india because the names of all these companies have come up on charges of tax evasion, Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman has also put forth the side of the government in this matter.

DRI has caught custom theft of 2217 crores of Chinese mobile maker Vivo. This theft was caught after a raid in the year 2020, after which a show cause notice was also issued to the company in june 2021. In this raid, DRI also recovered many documents related to tax evasion. This showed how Vivo india was deliberately importing the parts used in making mobiles but was giving wrong information to the government so that custom duty could be avoided.


Finance Minister's statement

In fact, in the Rajya Sabha, Finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman told that the government is monitoring the cases related to tax evasion of all three Chinese companies. She told that notices have been sent to Oppo, Vivo india and xiaomi in this matter and preparations are on for further action.

There are also allegations against Xiaomi

Nirmala Sitharaman has informed about xiaomi, the second largest mobile company in india, that three times notices have been sent to the company. She told that there is a duty liability of about Rs 653 crore on Xiaomi.
