Challenging Additional Tax Assessments
The general director of a construction company approached me after the tax authorities conducted a field audit and decided to impose additional tax assessments of over 8 million rubles in corporate income tax and more than 12 million rubles in VAT. The basis for these additional charges was the company’s transactions with so-called “technical” companies, which the tax inspection deemed fictitious.
The situation was further complicated by the initiation of a criminal case against the company’s executives on charges of deliberate large-scale tax evasion. This development threatened both the financial stability of the company and the reputation of its executives.
Thanks to my timely and qualified legal assistance, including proving the legitimacy of financial and business transactions with counterparties, the court overturned the additional tax assessments imposed by the tax authorities. Moreover, the criminal case was dismissed due to the absence of a crime.
This case serves as a key example of how the proper application of legal norms and professional legal support can not only minimize financial risks but also safeguard a company’s business reputation.
