The Guardia di Finanza has carried out an urgent seizure of over 183 million euros in illicitly generated tax credits in Brescia. The operation was conducted by the Guardia di Finanza Group at the request of the Public Prosecutor’s Office, as part of investigations into the proper use of “VAT” and “D.T.A.” (Deferred Tax Assets) tax credits. The credits, deemed fraudulent, include 45 million euros in D.T.A. and 138 million in VAT. The precautionary measure has been validated by the local Court of Review.
The investigations revealed that the fictitious credits were created through tax declarations that lacked genuine accounting documentation from a company that has since been officially dissolved and found to be inactive. Furthermore, some of the VAT credits had been requested for reimbursement from the Revenue Agency, necessitating collaboration with the Lazio Regional Directorate of the Agency. The seizure aims to prevent these illicit credits from entering the legal economic circuit and to ensure that they are not improperly used for offsets or transfers.
