      Tasks

      • incurred expenses for maintenance of the assets used in the activities of other companies controlled by the general director;
      • provided services to the companies related to the general director without collecting receivables with their subsequent write-off;
      • paid for the third parties’ services in the interest of the general director’s companies;
      • disbursed loans to the related parties on the terms and conditions different from the market ones. Besides, some borrowers were knowingly insolvent.

      The ICLC experts calculated the amounts of financial losses, including potential tax risks, and lost profits (the income that the company could receive by depositing available funds). The company owner received the grounds for claiming against the general director.

      Case 2: Unjustified Tax Benefit

      Background
      Cosmetics retail network pursued an aggressive tax policy at the stage of formation and promotion of products in the market, including using tax burden reduction schemes being developed by the tax authorities, which caused serious concerns of the general director; An independent opinion and grounds were required for discussion with the owners of the need to restructure the holding and build new business processes.

      Task
      Conduct an analysis of the de facto activities of the group and their mutual settlements in order to estimate the risk of claims of the tax authorities for obtaining unjustified tax benefit.

      Result
      In the course of due diligence the ICLC experts revealed the following.
      • The company organized fictitious document flow with the key supplier of the goods, the indirect signs of which indicate relation of the companies. The supplier does not have any organized recordkeeping, and no documentary evidence of production is available, also, relations with one-day companies are revealed.
      • A part of the company’s turnover is withdrawn through the controlled individual entrepreneurs that apply the simplified taxation system and have all signs of interdependence with the company (usually used by the tax authorities in the cases of business splitting), such as relations between the parties on the terms different from the standard commercial ones, absence of a unified system of orders and a recruitment system, servicing by the same credit institution, maintenance of accounting in the single accounting system 1C.
      The experts calculated the amount of tax risk, gave recommendations for its reduction, as well as proposals for restructuring. The general director took the decision to revise the business model and agreed it with the owners.

      Case 3: Subsidiary Liability

      Background
      The owner of a construction company was brought to subsidiary liability within the bankruptcy procedure. In order to protect his interests in court, an independent financial due diligence of the company’s activities over a number of years was required.

      • carried out a profound analysis of the specific nature and structure of the company’s activities with regard to the economic situation in the Russian Federation, impact of the economic events on activities of the company, its key partners and the construction sector as a whole;
