NEW DELHI: A hotel worth Rs 150 crore in a prime business space in Gurgaon has been attached by the Income-tax department as a “benami” asset of Haryana Congress leader Kuldeep Bishnoi and his brother, official sources said on Tuesday.
They said the Delhi benami prohibition unit of the department has issued an order for attachment of the hotel property.
