Referring court

Parties to the main proceedings

Applicant: Balgarska natsionalna televizia

Defendant: Direktor na Direktsia ‘Obzhalvane i danachno-osiguritelna praktika’ — Sofia pri Tsentralno upravlenie na NAP

Operative part of the judgment

1.Article 2(1)(c) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax must be interpreted as meaning that the activity of a public national television provider, consisting in the supply of audiovisual media services to viewers, which is financed by the State in the form of subsidies, and for which no fees for the broadcasting are payable by the viewers, does not constitute a service supplied for consideration within the meaning of that provision.

2.Article 168 of Directive 2006/112 must be interpreted as meaning that the national public television provider is entitled to deduct the input value added tax (VAT) for purchases of goods and services used for the purposes of its activities which give rise to the right to deduct and that it is not entitled to deduct input VAT for purchases of goods and services used for the purposes of its activities which do not fall within the scope of VAT. It is for the Member States to determine the methods and criteria for apportioning input VAT between taxable transactions and transactions not falling within the scope of VAT, taking into account the aims and broad logic of that directive in compliance with the principle of proportionality.
