Ankita Lokhande, Husband Vicky Jain Face GST Raids Linked to Coal Business

Bollywood actress Ankita Lokhande and her husband, businessman Vicky Jain, were reportedly caught up in extensive tax investigations as the Chhattisgarh State GST department carried out multi-location searches linked to a coal firm associated with the couple’s family business in Bilaspur.


Details of the Raids

The raids, directed by State GST Secretary Mukesh Bansal, involved enforcement teams from Raipur and covered 11 locations connected to Mahavir Coal Washery, Feel Coal, and Paras Coal & Beneficiation. Offices, residential premises, industrial plants, and washeries were all inspected.

During the operation:

  • The family surrendered around Rs. 10 crore on the first day.

  • An additional Rs. 11 crore was deposited the next day.

  • Another washery surrendered Rs. 6.5 crore.

The total tax recovery amounted to Rs. 27.5 crore. Preliminary GST findings suggest possible manipulation in tax input, prompting the extensive searches.


Timing Coincides with Wedding Anniversary

The news of the raids came on a personal milestone for the couple: their fourth wedding anniversary. Earlier in the day, Ankita shared a heartfelt Instagram post celebrating their journey together:

“4 years of us. Of growing, learning, falling, rising side by side.. We’ve held each other through the loud days and the quiet ones, choosing love even when it wasn’t easy… Always us. #AnVI ki Kahani.”

She also shared a video capturing glimpses of their married life, emphasizing trust, patience, and friendship.


Personal and Professional Notes

Ankita and Vicky Jain were last seen together in Laughter Chefs seasons 1 and 2. Vicky recently produced his first Bollywood film, Haq, starring Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi.

While the GST investigations continue, the couple remains in the public eye both for their work in entertainment and their high-profile family business.
