Persons Required to File Income Tax Returns 8 DEAN’S CIRCLE 2019 – UST FACULTY OF CIVIL LAW PILMICO-MAURI FOODS CORP., PETITIONER, -versus-. COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL
REVENUE, RESPONDENT. G.R. No. 175651, THIRD DIVISION, September 14, 2016, REYES, J.
To support deductions for business expenses, official receipts and sales invoices must meet the
requirements provided for in Section 238 of the 1977 Tax Code.
FACTS:
Petitioner was assessed deficiency income, value-added and withholding tax for the taxable year
1996. In the assessment, petitioner’s claim for business deduction on purchases of raw materials
was disallowed on the ground that petitioner failed to support sales invoices which are compliant
with Section 238 of the 1977 Tax Code, particularly in the name of the purchaser and the date of the
transaction. The CTA found that the alterations in the sales invoices gave rise to serious doubts as to
their authenticity. Petitioner argues that Section 29 of the 1977 Tax Code is applicable to determine
the deductibility of an expense, particularly, (1) the expense must be ordinary and necessary; (2) it
must be paid or incurred within the taxable year; and (3) it must be paid or incurred in carrying on
a trade or business. Petitioner argues that, prior to the promulgation of the 1997 Tax Code; the law
does not require the production of official receipts to prove an expense.
ISSUE:
Whether or not Section 238 of the 1977 Tax Code, particularly the requirements on the information
reflected in the receipts and invoices, is applicable to determine business deductibility of expenses?
(Yes)
RULING:
The law intends for Section 29 and 238 of the 1977 Tax Code to be read together, and not for one
provision to be accorded preference over the other. While official receipts are not the only pieces of
evidences which can prove deductible expenses, if presented, they shall be subjected to
examination. The petitioner submitted the receipts as evidence of its business deductions.
Accordingly, Section 238 of the 1977 Tax Code is applicable to determine if such receipts and
invoices may substantiate such claims for deduction.
COMMISSIONER OF INTERNAL REVENUE, PETITIONER, -versus-. NEXT MOBILE, INC.
(FORMERLY NEXTEL COMMUNICATIONS PHILS., INC.), RESPONDENT. G.R. No. 212825, THIRD
DIVISION, December 07, 2015, VELASCO JR., J.
An assessment notice issued after the three-year prescriptive period is not valid and effective.
Exceptions to this rule are provided under Section 222 of the NIRC. Section 222(b) of the NIRC provides
that the period to assess and collect taxes may only be extended upon a written agreement between
the CIR and the taxpayer executed before the expiration of the three-year period.
The general rule is that when a waiver does not comply with the requisites for its validity specified
under RMO No. 20-90 and RDAO 01-05, it is invalid and ineffective to extend the prescriptive period to
assess taxes. However, due to its peculiar circumstances, We shall treat this case as an exception to this
rule and find the Waivers valid for the reasons discussed below.
First, the parties in this case are in pari delicto or "in equal fault." Second, the Court has repeatedly
pronounced that parties must come to court with clean hands. Third, respondent is estopped from
questioning the validity of its Waivers. Finally, the Court cannot tolerate this highly suspicious
situation. In this case, the taxpayer, on the one hand, after voluntarily executing waivers, insisted on
their invalidity by raising the very same defects it caused. On the other hand, the BIR miserably failed
to exact from respondent compliance with its rules. The BIR's negligence in the performance of its
duties was so gross that it amounted to malice and bad faith. Moreover, the BIR was so lax such that it
seemed that it consented to the mistakes in the Waivers. Such a situation is dangerous and open to
abuse by unscrupulous taxpayers who intend to escape their responsibility to pay taxes by mere
expedient of hiding behind technicalities. 9 DEAN’S CIRCLE 2019 – UST FACULTY OF CIVIL LAW FACTS:
Respondent filed with the BIR its Annual Income Tax Return (ITR) for taxable year ending
December 31, 2001. Respondent also filed its Monthly Remittance Returns of Final Income Taxes
Withheld, its Monthly Remittance Returns of Expanded Withholding Tax and its Monthly
Remittance Return of Income Taxes Withheld on Compensation for year ending December 31, 2001.
Later on, respondent received a copy of the Letter of Authority authorizing the Revenue Officer to
examine respondent's books of accounts and other accounting records for income and withholding
taxes for the period covering January 1, 2001 to December 31, 2001.
