Tribunal lacks jurisdiction over private rulings; alternatively applicant not entitled to input VAT on hired passenger automobiles.
* Tax procedure – jurisdiction – private ruling is not a 'tax decision' under the Tax Procedure Code Act; no objection decision means no appeal to Tribunal. * VAT – input tax – S.28(5)(a) disallows input credit for passenger automobiles unless acquired exclusively for business of selling/dealing/hiring such vehicles. * Characterisation of hire – hiring a vehicle is a supply (parting with possession) for VAT purposes. * Evidence and burden – taxpayer must prove having incurred the input tax and meet statutory exceptions.
