2. Related statutes;
It is as shown in the attached Table related statutes.
3. Whether the instant taxation disposition is legitimate
A. The plaintiff's assertion
As a result of the cancellation of the instant agreement, the ownership of the instant second house was reverted to Kim △△△△ because the validity of the sales contract of the instant second house retroactively ceased to exist, and thus, the Plaintiff’s household owned only the instant first and third houses as of May 19, 2015, which was the date of the transfer of the instant first house, and met the requirements for non-taxation of high-priced houses as two houses for one household temporarily. Accordingly, the instant taxation disposition ought to be revoked illegally.
B. Determination
The issue of whether the transferred house constitutes one house for one household (second house for one household) ought to be determined as at the time of transfer of the house. As of May 19, 2015, the date of the instant first house transfer, the Plaintiff owned the instant house No. 1, 2, and 3 as at the time of the instant transfer. The Plaintiff transferred the instant house No. 1, and established a capital gains tax liability after the instant taxation was made, and the instant agreement was rescinded regarding the instant second house after the instant taxation was made. Article 45-2(2)5 of the Framework Act on National Taxes and Article 25-2 subparag. 2 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act stipulate that “where the contract related to the effect of the transaction or act, etc., which is the basis for calculating the tax base and tax amount, is rescinded or cancelled by the exercise of the right of rescission or inevitable reasons after the formation of the relevant contract, and thus, the Plaintiff’s assertion that the instant house was not subject to provisional cancellation due to the Plaintiff’s exercise of the right of cancellation of tax base and tax amount, and thus does not constitute retroactive transfer of the instant house.
4. Conclusion
Thus, the plaintiff's claim of this case is dismissed as it is without merit.
