2. Whether each of the dispositions of this case is legitimate

A. The plaintiff's assertion

The Defendant issued each of the instant dispositions on the premise that the Plaintiff operated the instant wedding hall. However, from August 12, 2010, the Plaintiff acquired the instant wedding building and site through auction, the Plaintiff leased the instant wedding building and site to BB to a limited company and returned it on December 30, 2011. During that period, the instant wedding hall was actually operated not by the Plaintiff but by the Plaintiff, which is the actual owner of the limited company BB, and the Plaintiff, irrelevant to the high-CC, did not engage in or have accrued profit from the instant wedding hall operation. Therefore, the corporate tax due to the omission of sales generated from the instant wedding hall, and the value-added tax should be imposed on the high-CC, which is the actual interest-added business owner of the instant wedding hall, in accordance with the substance over form principle.

[Ground of recognition] Evidence No. 7, Evidence No. 9 through 11, Evidence No. 2 through 7, Evidence No. 11, and the purport of the whole pleadings

D. Determination

The principle of substantial taxation declared by Article 14 of the Framework Act on National Taxes is a practical principle for realizing the principle of equality, which is the basic ideology of the Constitution, in a tax legal relationship. In a case where any unreasonable form or appearance, which differs from the substance of the taxation requirement, is taken for the purpose of evading a tax burden, the main purpose of this principle is to regulate the act of tax avoidance and enhance the equity of taxation by imposing tax at a place where the taxable capacity exists, regardless of the form or appearance, and thereby to realize a tax justice (see, e.g., Supreme Court en banc Decision 2008Du8499, Jan. 19, 2012). The determination of a taxpayer under the principle of substantial taxation is not a external appearance, but a legal substance. Thus, if the ownership of income, profit, property, or transaction subject to taxation is merely nominal, and there is a separate person to whom it actually belongs, the person who actually bears the burden of proving that the transaction is merely nominal and the person to whom it actually belongs.

In light of the following circumstances that can be seen by comprehensively considering the overall arguments regarding the instant case, i.e., (i) the Plaintiff acquired the ownership of the instant wedding building and site on August 12, 2010; (ii) the Plaintiff added a general food-related business to a real estate business entity on August 30, 2010; and (iii) from September 4, 2010, the Plaintiff reported various taxes, including value-added tax, in its name, on the annual sales generated from the instant wedding Chapter to the instant wedding Chapter; and (iv) the Plaintiff’s annual sales of the instant model, including the instant model-based limited company and the instant model-based limited company, on the premise that it was difficult for the Plaintiff to find out the entire annual sales of the instant building and the instant model-based limited company and the Plaintiff’s annual sales of the instant model-based sales of the instant building and the instant model-based limited company, based on the annual sales agreement concluded between the Plaintiff and the instant model-based limited company and the Plaintiff’s annual sales of the instant model-based sales of the instant case.

Therefore, the plaintiff's assertion is without merit.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, the plaintiff's claim is dismissed in entirety as it is without merit. It is so decided as per Disposition.
