Biriș Goran law firm announces the successful closure of a new stage in the lawsuit between Farmec SA and ANAF. On 18 February 2016, the litigation team headed by Mihai Nusca obtained in court the annulment of the taxation decision issued by ANAF for Farmec SA, amounting to approximately EUR 13 million. The decision can be appealed. Previously, in the settlement phase of the tax appeal, Biris Goran team managed to partially annul the taxation, amounting to approximately EUR 2 million.
In December 2014, ANAF decided to compel Farmec to pay approximately EUR 15 million, an amount which represented the recalculation of the payment of excise duties related to the alcohol used in the product networks included in the company’s portfolio. In the first phase, Biriș Goran team obtained in court the admission of the claim for suspension of the exercise of the taxation decision issued by ANAF until the settlement on the merits of the action requesting the annulment of the said decision.
The team representing Farmec SA in court was headed by Mihai Nusca, partner, and the tax team which offered assistance in this case was headed by Ruxandra Jianu.
