The Supreme Administrative Court allowed the Fazenda Nacional's request to exempt a verbal sales contract from transfer tax. The court found that the buyer, a commercial entity, acquired the property with the proven intent to resell it, fitting the definition of a commercial activity. Consequently, the exemption mandated by the Tax Code for such transactions was applied despite the contract's verbal form.
