On June 21, the Volyn District Administrative Court opened proceedings in case No. 140/1902/19 on the claim of the Office of Large Taxpayers of the State Fiscal Service to LLC Komo Ukraine on the application of arrest of funds on the taxpayer`s accounts opened in the banks.
According to the data of the State Register, the final beneficiaries of LLC Komo Ukraine is the people`s deputy Stepan Ivakhiv and the children of the deceased People`s Deputy Ihor Yeremeiev (Roman and Sofia), who are co-owners of the Continium Group (among its assets - the network of WOG gas stations and the Bank of Investments and Savings).
It is well-known that hard cheese and melted cheese under the brand name Komo is produced by Dubnomoloko (this enterprise is also controlled by the mentioned persons).
According to Finbalance, on May 10, Rivne District Administrative Court partially satisfied the claim of Dubnomoloko to the Office of Large Taxpayers of the State Fiscal Service (in the case of No. 460/3026/18) and canceled tax notices-decisions of 16.11.2018 about the need to pay taxes and fines of UAH 123 million.
At the same time, the Volyn District Administrative Court considers the claim of LLC WOG Retail to the Office of large taxpayers of the State Fiscal Service (in the case No. 803/1118/16) on cancellation of tax notifications-decisions of 19.07.2016, which increased the amount of the excise tax liability by UAH 417 million (of which UAH 277.8 million is the main payment, and UAH 138.9 million - penalties).
According to the court materials, the relevant tax notifications-decisions were made on the basis of the act of tax audit of LLC WOG Retail dated 04.07.2016, conducted for the period from 27.07.2011 to 31.12.2015. As noted, LLC WOG Retail did not agree with the conclusions of the tax authorities on the grounds that the sale of fuel through the network of gas stations in 2015 was carried out both to end users for their personal non-commercial use (which is subject to excise tax on the sale of excisable goods by business entities) and to business entities for commercial or industrial use (not subject to excise tax).
