In the Odesa region, an agricultural company paid over 7 million UAH in unpaid corporate income tax

 An enterprise specializing in the cultivation of agricultural crops has reimbursed over 7 million UAH in corporate income tax to the budget. Detectives of the Territorial Office of the ESBU in the Odesa region have completed a pre-trial investigation in criminal proceedings regarding tax evasion.

During the investigation, it was established that the company's female director failed to report the actual supply volumes of 5.1 thousand tons of corn, valued at almost 39 million UAH, in tax reporting. As a result, over 7 million UAH in corporate income tax was not paid to the state budget.

Based on the collected evidence, detectives notified the head of the enterprise of a suspicion under Part 1 of Article 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine—intentional tax evasion. The indictment has been forwarded to the court.

During the pre-trial investigation, the company voluntarily reimbursed over 7.2 million UAH in unpaid taxes and financial penalties to the budget. Additionally, the company directed 1 million UAH to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The funds have already been received by the state budget.

Procedural guidance in the case is carried out by prosecutors of the Odesa Regional Prosecutor's Office.

In accordance with Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is presumed innocent of committing a crime until their guilt is proven in accordance with the law and established by a court's guilty verdict.
