- In a merger by absorption, the VAT effects arise when the merger is registered in the Mercantile Registry, even if accounting effects are set retroactively to an earlier date.
- A retroactive accounting date does not move the VAT effective date back to that earlier date.
- If the absorbing company starts carrying out exempt activities that do not entitle it to deduct input VAT, it must apply the pro rata deduction rules.
- The VAT deduction must be determined under the ordinary provisional/definitive pro rata mechanism; the ruling does not set a specific deductible percentage or require a quantified adjustment.
