Language of the case: Danish
Referring court
Vestre Landsret
Parties to the main proceedings
Applicant: C&D Foods Acquisition ApS
Defendant: Skatteministeriet
Operative part of the judgment
Articles 2, 9 and 168 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax must be interpreted as meaning that a share disposal transaction, envisaged but not carried out, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, for which the direct and exclusive reason does not lie in the taxable economic activity of the company concerned, or which does not constitute the direct, permanent and necessary extension of that economic activity, does not come within the scope of value added tax.
