2. Whether the instant disposition is lawful
A. The plaintiff's assertion
(1) Article 52(2) of the Corporate Tax Act provides that the definition of the market price shall be “price applied or deemed to be applied to the sound social norms and commercial practice and the normal transaction between the persons who are not a related party.” Therefore, even if a transaction between a related party does not necessarily require any actual transaction, this price may be the market price if it is a normal transaction under sound social norms and commercial practices. On May 22, 2006, the Plaintiff sold the shares of this case to OOO for KRW 1,001,430 per share, and the amount is based on the objective appraised value of OOO accounting corporation, and even if it is thereafter appraised by OOOO of a stock company, the shares of this case are merely KRW 918,071 per share. Accordingly, the price per share shall not exceed KRW 1,01,430 per share, and otherwise, the taxation disposition of this case is unlawful.
(2) According to the proviso of Article 89(2)1 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act, in the case of unlisted stocks, the value appraised by an appraisal corporation under the Act on Publication of Land Prices and Evaluation of Land, Etc. shall not be deemed as the market price. This excessively emphasizes only the convenience of taxation by the State agencies and the identity of the tax administration, and thus, goes against the substantial tax equality principle and the substance over form principle, and the infringement of the people’s property rights is null and void.
(b) Related statutes;
It is as shown in the attached Table related statutes.
(c) Fact of recognition;
(1) As a result, from December 26, 2006 to February 10, 2006, the Director of the Regional Tax Office conducted an investigation of changes in the stocks of affiliated corporations with the Plaintiff and the OOOO, the transferor of the instant stocks, the OO, and the OO was merely lent only the name to the Plaintiff’s major shareholder and the representative director of the OOO, and the actual owner of the instant stocks was identified as leO, and leO owned more than 50% of the shares of the OO at the time of transfer of the instant stocks.
(2) OO지방국세청은 이 사건 주식의 양도당시인 2002. 10. 15.경 OOOO는 순손익가치(1주당 246,098원)보다 순자산가치(1주당 1,655,201원)가 크다고 보았고, 윤OO는 OOOO 주식의 50% 이상을 소유하고 있는 최대주주이므로 구 상속세및증여세법 제63조 제3항에 따라 30% 할증하여 이 사건 주식을 1주당 2,151,762원{≒1,655,201원+(1,655,201X0.3)}으로 평가하였다,
(3) On April 2, 2006, the Plaintiff paid KRW 4,002,524,490 among the corporate taxes imposed upon the instant disposition, and the remainder of KRW 3,500,000,000, OOO-dong 1,119,1546,490 as security.

(6) On June 26, 2006, the Plaintiff applied for payment in kind with the above 3,500,000,000 won. However, the Defendant rejected the Plaintiff’s application for payment in kind on the ground that it does not constitute Article 32 of the Framework Act on National Taxes (Change and Supplement of Security for Tax Payment), Article 15 (Change and Supplement of Security for Tax Payment), and General Rule 32-0.1 (Reasons for Change of Security for Tax Payment) of the Framework Act

D. Determination
(1) According to Article 15(2)1 of the Corporate Tax Act, where securities are purchased from an individual who is a person with a special relationship under Article 52(1) of the Corporate Tax Act at a price below the market price under Article 52(2) of the Corporate Tax Act, the amount equivalent to the difference between the market price and the relevant purchase price shall be deemed as the gross income. The purport of the above provision is to include the difference between the market price and the market price in the gross income for the business year in which the date of purchase falls in order to prevent inheritance or donation without tax burden from being carried out through the transfer of stocks, and to include it in the acquisition price of the relevant securities so as to be included in deductible expenses at the
In addition, Article 52 (1) of the Corporate Tax Act delegates to the Presidential Decree concerning a specially related person, and Article 87 (1) 2 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act provides that "shareholders, etc. (excluding minority shareholders, etc.) and their relatives shall be specially related persons, and as seen above, MaO constitutes a specially related person as a major shareholder.
(2) Whether it is legitimate to compute the market price of the instant stock by the method of complementary assessment
(A) According to Article 52(2) of the Corporate Tax Act, the market price refers to the prices (including rates, interest rates, rents, exchange rates, and other equivalent rates) that are, or are to be, applied to sound social norms and commercial practices and normal transactions between persons other than persons with a special relationship, and Article 52(4) of the same Act delegates matters necessary for the market price to the Presidential Decree. According to the delegation, Article 89(1) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act provides that where the pertinent corporation has, under similar circumstances to the pertinent transaction, prices continuously traded with many and unspecified persons other than persons with a special relationship or prices generally transacted with third parties who are not persons with a special relationship, such prices shall be deemed to be the market price stipulated in Article 52(2) of the Corporate Tax Act. Article 52(2) of the same Act provides that where the market price is unclear, unlisted stocks not listed on the Stock Exchange shall
(B) The method of calculating the market price of unlisted stocks according to the supplementary assessment method pursuant to Article 89(2)2 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act is limited to the case where the market price at the time of the transfer of unlisted stocks is unclear, and the tax authority bears the burden of proof in the case where
In the instant case, as seen earlier, the Plaintiff purchased the instant shares in KRW 20,000 per share, but in light of the net profit and loss per share of the OO shares at that time, and net asset value per share of the instant shares, 20,000 won cannot be deemed as the market price per share of the instant shares, and the Plaintiff does not dispute this point.
In light of the fact that the Plaintiff sold 6,000 shares among the shares of this case to the OO on May 22, 2006 at KRW 1,001,430 per share, as seen above, it is a transaction after the lapse of three years and seven months from the time of transferring the shares of this case. The above KRW 1,001,430 is not a supplementary assessment method under the former Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax Act and its Enforcement Decree, which was applied at the time of transferring the shares of this case, but a supplementary assessment method under the amended Acts and subordinate statutes, and the OO is linked to the status of the Plaintiff and its specially related parties, it is difficult to view the above KRW 1,01,430 per share as the market price of the shares of this case. There is no data to recognize the price of transactions with many and unspecified persons other than those under Article 89(1) of the former Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act or the price of transactions with a third party who is not a specially related party.
Therefore, since the stock of this case constitutes a case where the market price is unclear at the time of transfer, it is legitimate to calculate the market price of the stock of this case by the supplementary method of assessment, and there is no violation of law.
(3) Whether the proviso of Article 89(2)1 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act is invalid
According to the proviso of Article 89(2)1 of the Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act, in the case of unlisted stocks, the market price shall not be calculated based on the appraised value by an appraisal corporation. However, this is an inevitable aspect considering not only the following characteristics of unlisted stocks, i.e., minority shareholders, but also the general and ordinary transactions in the market, it is difficult to find out the appraisal method that can ensure objectivity while reflecting the appropriate value of unlisted stocks, but also it is difficult to find the appraisal method that can secure objectivity.
Therefore, it is difficult to view that the proviso of Article 89(2)1 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Corporate Tax Act is in violation of the principle of substantial taxation equality and the principle of substantial taxation, or infringes on the essential contents of property rights of the people.
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the defendant's disposition of this case is legitimate, and the plaintiff's claim seeking its revocation is dismissed as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
