Case Number of the previous trial
Seocho 2015west 3438 ( October 08, 2015)
Title
(In the title trust of the instant shares, it is difficult to readily conclude that there was no tax avoidance purpose, and there is no other evidence to acknowledge it otherwise.
Summary
(C) Article 52 of the Corporate Tax Act provides that “The title trust of the instant shares shall be subject to the application of the corporate tax rate higher than the transfer tax rate by title trust,” and Article 52 of the Corporate Tax Act provides that the title trust of the instant shares shall be subject to the application of the provision on wrongful calculation.” Therefore, it is reasonable to deem that there was an intention to avoid such corporate tax burden
