Supreme Court: VAT Exemption for Sale of Partially Demolished Building on Land

  • The case involves a dispute over whether the sale of a plot of land should be considered the sale of developed land or undeveloped land.
  • The court ruled that a partially demolished building does not qualify as undeveloped land or a construction site.
  • The court determined that a wall on the plot of land served a functional purpose and was essential to the existence of the land.
  • The court concluded that the sale of the land, including the partially demolished building, should be exempt from VAT as developed land.
  • The court also upheld the decision to cancel the penalty imposed on the taxpayer.
