The Supreme Administrative Court dismissed the Tax and Customs Authority's appeal against CEMG's request to deduct input VAT on imported goods. The authority argued that the goods were not used for taxable operations, while CEMG contended their usage qualified for deduction under the VAT regime. The court ruled that the authority failed to prove the goods were exclusively used for exempt activities, thereby upholding the taxpayer's right to deduct.
