Hari & Co., we follow a systematic procedure and use our expertise to help all clients navigate the complicated web of Benami Transactions (Prohibition) Act, 2016 — ensuring they are fully protected and compliant.
Key Legal Penalties: Fine up to 25% of Fair Market Value + imprisonment up to 7 years for Benami transactions. Fine up to 10% of Fair Market Value + imprisonment up to 5 years for providing false information.
