SRC Law Firm represented a client, who is one of the leading service providers in Poland in the field of energy management, water and wastewater management, before the Provincial Administrative Court.
The case concerned a tax interpretation unfavorable to the client on the property taxation of technological pipelines located inside a building.
At the stage of the proceedings before the tax authority, the authority issued an interpretation stating that technological pipelines, located inside a building, constitute separate structures from the point of view of real estate tax regulations, and are therefore subject to separate real estate taxation, in addition to the building itself.
As a result of a complaint filed by SRC Law Firm, the Provincial Administrative Court issued a judgment favorable to our client, reversing the above interpretation and stating that a technological pipeline located inside a building, as part of that building, is exempt from property taxation.
The case was handled on behalf of SRC Law Firm by Alicja Popłonkowska-Dębińska, attorney at law.
“We are proud that we were able to bring about this verdict, which is not only favorable to our client, but also fair from a legal point of view and simply just” – stated Łukasz Caban, partner of SRC Law Firm.
