A tenant who pretended to be a building owner for 20 years after the business-owned corporation closed

In the process of tracking down a tax-delinquent corporation in Seoul, it was revealed that an organization that used to lease the mall owned by the corporation had been collecting rent for 20 years by pretending to be a building owner after the corporation closed.

The 38th Tax Collection Division, an organization that collects arrears in Seoul, announced on the 28th that it collected 715 million won out of the taxes that a corporation that had been in arrears for 20 years after malicious arrears of billions of dollars of taxes were collected after two years of persistent pursuit.

The corporation that collected the city’s arrears tax did not pay a total tax of 3.5 billion won, including the acquisition tax that should have been paid while buying a building in Seoul in 1999, but liquidation was terminated in 2006 after the abolition of business registration. In 1996, the company purchased a real estate in a shopping mall in Busan City, and the following year, it leased it to the ○○ Alliance for a deposit of 340 million won.

The city of Seoul seized the real estate in Busan in order to collect the tax of the arrears corporations, but it was not possible to make a short sale because a senior root mortgage right was set in the deposit of the tenant’○○ Alliance’.

Then, while the investigator in charge visited the Busan shopping center in person and checked the current situation, he found out that the “○○ Alliance,” a fundamental mortgage holder and tenant, abused the fact that a corporation that was a former building owner had closed its business and re-leased the shopping center. The group signed an illegal sublease contract with’○○ Mart’, a large supermarket in the region, and received a total of 700 million won each month for 20 years in the name of consignment management. The city said that the money that the group initially paid as a security deposit was also received as a government subsidy.

The Seoul Metropolitan Government filed a lawsuit to expunge the group’s fundamental mortgage rights. Other fundamental mortgage holders’ rights were also organized and auctioned off, and recently collected 500 million won of arrears in tax. In addition, 200 million won, which is part of the rental deposit of the group that pretended to be the building owner, was redeemed under the court judgment.

Seoul City Finance Bureau chief Lee Byung-han said, “The case of an investigator collecting taxes through persistent and professional pursuit of a root mortgage holder who maliciously misappropriated the closing of business of a corporation that has delinquently paid taxes.” “I will realize tax justice.”
