LG하우시스, LG화학에 이어 국세청 조사
Jun 10, 2014
국세청이 10일 오전 LG화학에 대한 고강도 세무조사에 착수한대 이어 LG 하우시스도 조사 대상에 포함된 것으로 확인되면서 대대적인 LG 계열사 세무조사 배경에 대한 관심이 증폭되고 있다.10일 오전 국세청 조사국 직원 40여명이 서울 여의도 LG화학 본사에서 약 2시간의 실랑이 끝에 자료를 확보했다. 이날 국세청에서는 추가로 약 100여명의 직원을 LG하우시스 본사에도 투입해 회계장부 등 영치를 진행한 것으로 알려졌다. 이번 세무조사가 LG그룹에 대한 집중 조사가 아닌지 의심되는 가운데 LG의 다른 계열사들도 상황을 예의 주시하고 있다. LG하우시스 관계자는 “통상적으로 회사가 설립된 지 5년째에 세무조사가 이뤄지므로 예상 가능한 일이었다”고 설명했다.일각에서는 이번 조사가 탈세혐의를 기반으로 한 특별 세무조사라는 해석이 나오고 있다.(코리아헤럴드 석지현 기자)<관련 영문 기사>NTS raids LG Hausys, LG Chem in tax probe Tax investigat
