Swiggy has received a tax demand of Rs 7.59 crore from the Profession Tax department in Pune for the financial year 2021-22.
Officials allege that Swiggy violated provisions related to the deduction of Profession Tax from employees' salaries.
Swiggy plans to challenge the order, stating it has strong grounds for review or appeal and that it won't significantly impact its financials or operations.
Swiggy also received a separate tax demand of more than Rs 158 crore from the Deputy Commissioner of Income Tax in Bengaluru for the same period.
