11 June 2024 11:45
In the first quarter of 2024, most networks significantly increased their tax payments. This was reported by economist Oleg Getman, "Komersant Ukrainian" reports
Hetman noted that the main indicator – the tax burden per litre of retail sales – is calculated as the sum of all taxes on retail sales divided by the number of litres sold according to cash registers.
In the first quarter of 2024, chains paid the most:
- Socar,
- BVS,
- Shell,
- OKKO, AND OKKO,
- UPG,
- U.GO.
These networks pay more than UAH 2.50 in taxes per litre of fuel sold.
Theworst, most abnormal tax payment rates for retail fuel sales are:
- T&T Oil,
- Bars,
- Brent oil,
- Olas,
- Motto,
- Avantazh 7,
- Prime.
These networks pay less than UAH 0.6 of taxes per litre of fuel sold.
Hetman noted that the analysis of the relative performance of different petrol station chains demonstrates the uneven tax burden on different petrol station chains, both per 1 litre of fuel and per 1 employee.
It is worth noting that the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine approved in the first reading the draft law No. 11256-2, which increases excise taxes on fuel in Ukraine .
Energy expert Oleksandr Sirenko says that if the tax is raised, liquefied natural gas in Ukraine will become more expensive than in the EU as early as July.
