- The case involved the Municipality of Aleksandrów Łódzki seeking a tax interpretation regarding VAT on goods and services.
- The Municipality began an investment project for the thermal modernization of residential resources, including residential and commercial premises.
- The Municipality funds these investments with its own resources and external financing, documented by VAT invoices.
- The Municipality owns 100 percent of a company that rents out these premises and pays VAT on commercial rentals but treats residential rentals as VAT-exempt.
- The Municipality questioned if it could deduct part of the VAT based on sales proportion for expenses on buildings provided to the company for rental services.
- The Municipality believed it was entitled to this deduction.
- The Director of KIS disagreed, stating the buildings do not serve the Municipality’s taxable activities and the company is not equivalent to the Municipality for tax purposes.
