520 _aLooks at the VAT treatment of inducements paid in connection with property transactions and examines the principles of VAT law. Considers the consequences of the European Court (ECJ) ruling in "Cantor Fitzgerald" and "Mirror Group" that VAT is payable on inducements. Suggests that the ECJ ruling in these cases and in "Lubbock Fine & Co" should clarify the VAT treatment of inducements paid in connection with leases. However, UK businesses will also face possible VAT costs in the form of irrecoverabe input tax. Explains the practicalities for landlords and tenants and the situation if an inducement has been paid or received in recent years. Highlights the complications in applying VAT to land transactions and concludes that VAT implications should be considered carefully and early in the transaction.
