- The company was denied the right to deduct VAT on expenses related to advisory services and preliminary investigations for acquiring shares in a subsidiary. The advisory services were deemed to have been purchased by or on behalf of investors and used in their decision-making process, not by the company itself. Consequently, the company was not entitled to VAT deductions on the invoices in question. Additionally, an invoice from a management company was considered a re-invoicing of expenses without the provision of taxable services, thus incorrectly charged with VAT, leading to the denial of VAT deduction rights. The decision by the Tax Authority was upheld.
