The Income Tax department's scrutiny focused on these establishments.

During today's raids, the Income Tax department officials examined financial records and documents related to Lottery Martin's lottery sales. The investigation aims to assess whether any regulations were breached during the sales, which reportedly generated revenues of up to 910 crore rupees, and whether there were any violations against the law.

The investigation, which began on April 25 last year, resulted in the Income Tax department scrutinizing various properties. Earlier, in June, several crores worth of assets were seized by the Excise Department. Following these developments, Income Tax officials have once again initiated a detailed investigation into the properties linked to Lottery Martin, focusing on his lottery business operations.
