SAN FERNANDO CITY, La Union, Philippines (PNA) -- The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) District Office No. 3 closed down a grocery store in Poblacion East, Rosario, La Union last week under its "Operation Kandado."

The Consumer-Friendly Trading, a grocery-store owned by Shirley Chu, was found under-declaring its gross sales that resulted in tax deficiency of about P2 million.

The BIR found the grocery store violation after two weeks of surveillance for non-issuance of official receipts to its customers.
