[Reasons for Recognition] Unsatisfed Facts, A.I.2 Evidence, I.2 Evidence, I.2 Evidence (including paper numbers), the purport of the entire pleadings
2. Whether the disposition is lawful;
(a)the recommendations and points of the Parties;
(1) The plaintiff: since the plaintiff acquired the real estate of this case before the designation of the rearrangement zone, which is the time limit for acquisition under the special provisions on taxation of the case, and transferred it to the company other than the urban environment rearrangement project implementer on June 30, 2006, the transfer income tax should be calculated on the basis of the standard market price, as the special provisions on taxation of the transfer income tax following the transfer of the real estate of this case are applied.Therefore, the disposition of this case is unlawful
(2) Defendant 2 asserted that the instant special taxation provision does not apply since Nonparty Company, the transferee of the instant real estate, was not authorized to implement an urban environment rearrangement project and was not an implementer of the project, until the transfer of the instant real estate.
(3) Therefore, the issue of the instant case is whether the instant special taxation provision can be applied in calculating the capital gains tax by deeming the project implementer under the conditions as stipulated in the special taxation provision of this case, where real estate has been transferred to a project implementer who implements a project without obtaining authorization for project implementation within the urban environment rearrangement zone and after transferring the real estate to the project implementer.
3. Relevant statutes;
It shall be as shown in the attached Form.
4. Determination
(a) Details of the Income Tax and the Restriction of Special Taxation Act on the method of calculating transfer value;
Article 96 (1) of the former Income Tax Act (amended by Act No. 7837, Dec. 31, 2005; Act No. 96 (1) of the Income Tax Act (amended by Act No. 7837, Jan. 1, 2006); however, Article 96 (2) of the same Act (amended by Act No. 96 (2) of the Income Tax Act provides that the transfer value of the relevant assets shall be based on the actual transaction value of the relevant assets; however, Article 96 (1) of the same Act provides that the transfer value of the relevant real estate shall be based on the "standard market value as at the time of transfer of the relevant assets;" Article 96 (1) of the same Act provides that the transfer value of the relevant real estate shall be based on the "standard market value as at the time of transfer of the relevant assets;" Article 85 of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act (the provision of this case) shall apply to the person who acquired the relevant real estate within the area designated by Act No. 1 to be subject to new housing development area; Article 13 of the Housing Development Promotion Act.
B. Purpose of legislation of the special taxation provision of this case
In full view of the title and contents of the special taxation provisions of this case, each of the special taxation provisions of this case, and each of the subparagraphs of attached Table 7 of Article 79-2(1) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act, all of the projects planned by the law stipulated in the special taxation provisions of this case and each of the subparagraphs of attached Table 7 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act are public interest purposes, and the above law recognizes the right to expropriate the project operator based on the Act on Acquisition of and Compensation for Land, etc. for Public Works Projects, and the right to make decisions on the transfer value even if the transferor transfers the real estate to the project operator through consultation, the purpose of the special taxation provisions of this case is to relieve the taxpayer's tax burden by allowing the transfer value to be based on the standard market price rather than the actual transaction value if the real estate in the speculative designated area is transferred or expropriated for public interest purpose (see Supreme Court Decision 2006Du16779, Dec. 27, 2007).
(c)the scope of the project operator under the special provisions on the special taxation of the case;
(1) According to the special taxation provisions of this case and Article 79-2 (1) 9 of the Enforcement Decree of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act, the transfer value of the real estate acquired before the date of designation of the rearrangement zone can be calculated based on the standard market price when the relevant project implementer transfers the real estate to the relevant project implementer before December 31, 2006. However, Article 2 (8) of the Restriction of Special Taxation Act, etc. does not have any separate definition provision as to the project implementer, while Article 2 (8) of the Act on the Maintenance and Improvement of Urban Areas and Dwelling Conditions for Residents (hereinafter referred to as the "Domination Act") provides that the "project implementer" refers to the person who implements the rearrangement project, but does not have any express provision that only the other project implementer who has obtained the authorization of implementation under the Domination Act is deemed the project implementer. Therefore, in the application of the special taxation provisions of this case, it should be interpreted that the project implementer is included in the project implementation authorization after the transfer
(2) Under the principle of no taxation without law, the interpretation of tax laws shall be interpreted as the text of the law, barring any special circumstance, and shall not be extensively interpreted or analogically interpreted without reasonable grounds. However, where it is necessary to clarify the meaning through the interpretation between the laws and regulations, the interpretation can be made for the purpose of interpretation by taking into account the legislative intent and purpose to the extent that it does not undermine the legal stability and predictability pursued by the principle of no taxation without law (see Supreme Court Decision 2007Du13784, Feb. 14, 2008).
(3) In light of the legislative intent of the Act on the Regulation of Special Taxation and the Ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, Article 28 of the Enforcement Decree of the Housing Act provides that the project implementer shall be granted authorization for the implementation of the project under the Act on the Regulation of Special Taxation and the Ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (the Act on the Regulation of Special Taxation and the Ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport No. 1) and the Act on the Regulation of Special Taxation and the Ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (the Act on the Regulation of Special Taxation and the Ordinance on the Regulation of Special Taxation and the Ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport No. 1). The Act provides that the project implementer shall be granted authorization for the implementation of the project under the Act on the Regulation of Special Taxation and the Ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (the Act on the Regulation of Special Taxation and the Ordinance of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport No. 2 and the Act on the Regulation of Land, Infrastructure and Transport No. 8 shall be deemed necessary to obtain the approval for the implementation of the project.
D. Sub-determination
Therefore, since the special taxation provision of this case applies to the calculation of capital gains in relation to the transfer of the real estate of this case, the disposition of this case refusing the plaintiff's request for correction on a different premise is unlawful.
5. Conclusion
A claim for this case shall be accepted as well as reasonable persons.
