The case concerned whether the complainant, who ran a stud and racing business, was entitled to a deduction for purchase VAT for the period 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2017.

The company only had premium income, which thus did not constitute delivery for consideration according to section 4, subsection 1 of the VAT Act. 1.
