BENGALURU: An anonymous email has blown the lid off an alleged attempt to dodge more than Rs 37 lakh in road tax and penalties on a black Lamborghini Huracan Evo, setting off a probe that uncovered forged invoices and fabricated ownership records.Officials said the message, received by the state transport department on Dec 12, 2025, alleged that the luxury car, bearing the registration number KA-03-NX-0016, had been illegally registered at the Kasturinagar RTO in east Bengaluru. Scrutiny revealed that the invoice number was identical to the one issued to the original buyer three years earlier.When contacted, the Lamborghini dealer confirmed that no invoice had been generated in Sept 2025 and described the document as forged. The dealer also said the car had earlier served as a demonstration vehicle before being sold to Harsha Infra.Transport officers believe the fabricated records were created to undervalue the car and avoid tax dues for the intervening period.
