The Supreme Administrative Court unanimously allowed the taxpayer's request to exempt specific transactions from transaction tax. The taxpayer, Antonio Margarido, argued that his purchases of goods for public contracts were not taxable because the underlying contracts were finalized before the new tax code took effect. The court ruled in favor of the exemption, establishing that the legislative intent was to shield such commercial activities occurring prior to the law's enactment.
