In Lviv region, the director of a company engaged in the sale of energy equipment has reimbursed the state budget more than UAH 10.3 million in taxes after tax evasion was uncovered. This was reported by the Lviv Regional Prosecutor’s Office.
According to the investigation, in 2024 the company was actively selling solar generation and autonomous power supply systems and providing services, but the director deliberately failed to record part of the actual transactions in the accounts. The reports did not show more than UAH 27.5 million in income, which made it possible to avoid paying over UAH 10.3 million in taxes, including VAT and corporation tax.
Following the intervention of prosecutors from the Lviv Regional Prosecutor’s Office, the damage caused to the state has been reimbursed in full. In the criminal proceedings under Part 3 of Article 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, a motion has been submitted to the court seeking the release of the suspect from criminal liability in connection with the full reimbursement of the losses.
The pre-trial investigation in this case is being conducted by the Territorial Department of the Economic Security Bureau in Lviv region.
Pursuant to Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is presumed innocent of committing a crime and may not be subjected to criminal punishment until his or her guilt has been proven in accordance with the law and established by a guilty verdict of a court.
