Legislator summary

AI generated

The Administrative Court dismissed the appeal against the Inheritance and Gift Tax Board's valuation of minority shares at their substance value rather than market value. The Board determined the market value based on a 1986 offer of 90,000 marks, which required the buyer to acquire the entire company's share capital. The court upheld the Board's decision, ruling that the specific condition of acquiring the whole company invalidated the offer as a true indicator of the minority shares' standalone market value at the time of the gift.

Perintö- ja lahjaverolautakunta oli vahvistanut vuonna

1970 perustetun yhtiön, joka ei ollut koskaan jakanut

osinkoa, vähemmistöosakkeiden käyvän arvon substanssiarvon

perusteella 305 690 markaksi. Lääninoikeus katsoi,

että vähemmistöosakkeista keväällä 1986 esitetty ostotarjous

90 000 markkaa osoitti osakkeiden käyvän arvon lahjoitushetkellä

30.5.1986. Ostotarjous oli edellyttänyt,

että tarjouksen tekijä saa haltuunsa koko yhtiön osakekannan.

Verovuosi 1986.
