Yes of course, Sec 467 of the IPC will be applied for forgery, as you have forged Docs to evade paying Taxes in the form of money to the Government and as such, you have committed loss to the Exchequer or Treasury of the Indian Government.

To prove this offence of forgery which is technically difficult and should be proven with the help of expert witness. Even if you get caught you can simply released on bail . If no FIR is registered against you then you can apply for anticipatory bail before session court
