- Landlord leased office space to a company that sublet part to its subsidiary.
- Tax Office granted partial VAT deduction, excluding sublet areas and shared common areas.
- Taxpayer appealed, arguing VAT deduction shouldn’t be reduced for shared common areas.
- Tax Appeals Board ruled:
- VAT deduction only applies to areas exclusively used for tenant’s taxable activities.
- Deduction was properly reduced for subsidiary’s share of property and common areas due to non-taxable business activities not sufficiently connected to tenant’s taxable activities.
