Taxpayer not entitled to reduce VAT
Commissioners for Revenue and Customs v BUPA Purchasing Ltd and Others
Court of Appeal
“Where the Commissioners for Revenue and Custome had made a value-added tax assessment and the time limit for making any further assessment had passed before they became aware that further input tax was deductible, the taxpayer was not entitled to reduce the amount of VAT stated due in the assessment to take account of output tax which had not yet been taken into account and which arose from the same transaction.”
