Successful avoidance of additional charges amounting to 80 million rubles ($ 1,1 million)
The private company was liquidated after the tax audit with an additional payment of 20 million rubles ($ 267 000), despite having tax risks of 100 million rubles ($ 1,3 million).
Situation:
As a result of the check-up, some tax risks were identified, including profit tax risks of approximately 100 million rubles ($ 1,3 million). The practice of disputes regarding the profit tax is ambiguous, and either a taxpayer or a tax authority can win. It was essential for the client to avoid the detection of these tax risks while obtaining a tax audit report before liquidating the company.
Solution:
We eliminated several evident tax risks and developed an effective strategy of communication with the Federal Tax Service, considering the significant tax risks associated with the profit tax. We proceeded with the tax audit.
Result:
The Federal Tax Service examined all the tax periods, resulting in an additional charge of 20 million rubles ($ 267 000). The owner paid this amount,and the company was successfully liquidated.
