History

2024: FTS additionally charged 550 million rubles in taxes and fines of the AnderSon network

The Federal Tax Service (FTS) discovered hidden revenue when checking the AnderSon cafe chain. This was announced on May 13, 2024 by RBC, citing sources in the department.

The service analyzed the work of LLC Tyrolerhof, LLC Honey and Share, LLC Qasl and LLC Geran, which are part of the group's structure, from 2019 to 2021. It turned out that the so-called restaurant scheme was used to hide income. With this scheme, payment occurs not through the settlement account of the restaurant, but through a terminal that does not belong to the restaurant, and through a chain of at least three credit institutions. By transferring money to companies outside the restaurant industry, cashless money from restaurants turned into uncapped cash.
