The Directorate General of Goods and Service Tax Intelligence (DGGI) is a law enforcement agency under the Ministry of Finance responsible for fighting tax evasion in India.[1] It was founded in 1979 as the Directorate General of Anti-Evasion and was later renamed the Directorate General of Central Excise Intelligence. The agency was renamed as Directorate General of GST Intelligence (DGGI) after the introduction of the Goods and Services Tax. The agency is part of NATGRID. The organisation is staffed by officers of Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs.
History[edit]
Established in 1979 as the Directorate General of Anti-Evasion, its function was under the control of Directorate of Revenue Intelligence, New Delhi. The agency is tasked with collecting, collating, and disseminating intelligence related to evasion of Goods and Service Tax (GST). In 1983, it became an independent Directorate and in 1998 the Directorate was upgraded to Directorate General with four zonal units in Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata, and Mumbai.[2]
In 2004 the agency was tasked with detecting cases of Service Tax evasion.[2]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
