On November 19, regarding the case of Xuan Thien Group's leaders showing signs of tax evasion when transferring shares at Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company, the leader of Dak Lak Tax Department said that the case file had been transferred to Dak Lak Provincial Police for investigation and handling according to authority.

Transfer of tax evasion records to the police

The leader of Dak Lak Tax Department said that after receiving information from the press and the review request from the General Department of Taxation, the unit provided and clarified some related contents.

Accordingly, after reviewing, Dak Lak Tax Department found that Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company had committed tax evasion (submitting tax declaration after 90 days from the deadline for submitting tax declaration). The enterprise paid tax to the state budget after Dak Lak Tax Department inspected and handled the case.

Therefore, Dak Lak Tax Department has continued to send an official dispatch to the Provincial Police requesting coordination to review, determine the behavior and handle Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company according to its functions and authority.

The leader added that the Tax Department is continuing to monitor and will strictly follow the direction after receiving comments from the General Department of Taxation; coordinate and exchange information with the police to ensure that the handling of violations by enterprises is carried out in accordance with the law.

Dak Lak Provincial Tax Department has also withdrawn the penalty decision dated December 27, 2022, awaiting the conclusion from the police to handle it according to regulations.

Regarding the wrongdoing officers, the Dak Lak Provincial Tax Department held a review meeting to clarify the responsibilities of the head of the inspection department 1 and the civil servants of the inspection department 1. Thereby, it requested a review and experience drawing for these two individuals.

Being inspected just reminds me to pay taxes

According to the leader of Dak Lak Tax Department, the review results also showed that the leaders of Xuan Thien Group "forgot" to pay taxes for quite a long time. Only when the tax department inspected and handled the matter did they pay personal income tax.

Specifically, on February 20, 2020, Mr. Nguyen Van Thien - Chairman of the Board of Directors of Xuan Thien Group - transferred 706,000 shares to Mr. Vu Canh Tuan, equivalent to a value of 7.06 billion VND.

Nearly 2 years and 8 months later, on October 17, 2022 (after the Dak Lak Tax Department issued a tax inspection decision), Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company declared personal income tax on behalf of Mr. Thien with an amount to be paid of more than 7 million VND.

The project of Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company has a total investment of 1,765 billion VND, implemented on an area of ​​125 hectares in Ia Lop commune, Ea Sup district, Dak Lak. The project is located in a cluster of 5 factories of Xuan Thien Group in Dak Lak - Photo: MC

Similarly, on September 16, 2021, Mr. Nguyen Van Thuy - Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Xuan Thien Group - transferred to Mr. Pham Van Tuat more than 38.1 million shares worth more than 381 billion VND at Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company but did not directly declare taxes.

Nearly 10 months later, on July 8, 2022 (before the Dak Lak Tax Department issued a tax inspection decision on August 15, 2022), Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company declared on behalf of Mr. Thuy personal income tax from capital transfer activities, with the amount payable of more than 381 million VND.

On July 9, 2022, the company paid more than VND 381 million in taxes on behalf of Mr. Thuy to the state budget. On October 24, 2022, Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company paid more than VND 381 million in personal income tax on behalf of Mr. Thuy.

The reason for transferring the case to the police this time, according to the leader of Dak Lak Tax Department, is that Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company committed an administrative violation for the first time, and had declared and paid the full amount of tax to the state budget before the Dak Lak Tax Department issued a decision to impose a fine.

Therefore, in the first decision to handle the enterprise, Dak Lak Tax Department imposed a penalty for false declaration, now re-determined that there are signs of tax evasion.

According to this person, the punishment of Ea Sup 3 Joint Stock Company for false declaration, but not tax evasion, was due to the awareness of the staff and this has been deeply learned from experience.
