“...they noticed I’d paid out a substantial amount of VAT that I didn’t need to – running into the tens of thousands of pounds...”

Mal Weeraratne

Accounts Senior Dinesh Kanagaratnam, says:

"As with so many aspects of the business environment, VAT has become increasingly onerous and worthy of careful consideration. It is particularly important for property transactions and those operating partially exempt VAT schemes.

Careful and proactive VAT planning is possible within the UK and can avoid costly VAT inspections and investigations and should be an integral part of the financial management of any business."
