Business development and the procuring of additional funding sources are relevant issues to the majority of companies. One of the most effective ways of solving these issues is for a company to apply the Special Rules of Tax Legislation (hereinafter SRTL) as outlined in the Russian Tax Code.

Correctly applied SRTL will result in additional funding sources for the development of your company. Recovered economic turnover funds can be legally directed towards investment programmes and also lead to a reduction in the use of credit resources. The implementation of SRTL enables a more rational calculation and distribution of corporate tax burdens.

The range of services for the application of SRTL practices includes the collection and preparation of all necessary documentation as well as the protection of interests of businesses with tax and judicial authorities until all tax issues are fully resolved in favour of the taypayer. Our services include:

1. Identification of contentious tax issues uncovered from customer data;
2. Analysis of tax issues and identifying cases where SRTL practices can be applied;
3. Providing an estimate of the additional funds that will be recovered as a result of the application of SRTL practices;
4. Preparation of CSG’s legal opinion based on available facts and client circumstances. Subject to the availability of documents;
5. Providing legal support in order to return the outlined sum of overpaid taxes in a pretrial settlement, or, in the event of a negative response during a pretrial settlement, a trial to return the identified sum;

In order to identify the applicability of SRTL tax practices and estimate the potential financial return, CSG will provide an ‘Express Analysis’ of the company’s finances. Upon completion, CSG will provide a detailed summary report.
