A RECRUITMENT consultants has been named as one of the 140 companies fined for defaulting on tax.
Mall Recruitment Ltd, formerly known as ‘Tecbuyer Ltd’, which had a based on Shirley Road in Hall is cited on His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) list of “deliberate tax defaulters” who had purposely not paid tax bills over £25,000.
In every case, those named failed to make a full disclosure when HMRC began its investigation – a step that would have kept their details off the list, the tax authority said.
About 140 individuals and businesses across the country were penalised for deliberately defaulting on tax.
Mall Recruitment Ltd failed to pay a tax bill over £146,770.51 between September 2018 and August 2022 and was fined £137,964.26 by HMRC.
Kevin Hubbard, HMRC’s director of individuals and small business compliance, said: “We are actively tackling tax non-compliance among high street businesses across the UK, and today’s namings show we will act wherever we find it.
“Everyone on this list had the opportunity to come forward to make a full disclosure – and didn’t. HMRC will always pursue those who deliberately refuse to pay what they owe.”
