E064 OF 2020 BETWEEN LG ELECTRONICS AFRICA LOGISTICS FZE KENYA BRANCH.........APPELLANT AND COMMISSIONER OF DOMESTIC TAXES..................................................RESPONDENT RULING I have considered the arguments on both sides. It is not disputed that the appellant is a going concern and as stated by the counsel for the respondent, it has recently paid the respondent Kshs. 200,000,000/-.

In order to secure the respondent’s interest in this matter, the Notice of Motion dated 05.06.2020 is allowed on the following terms: 1. There shall be a stay of enforcement of the decision of the Tax Appeal Tribunal Appeal No. 359 of 2018 and further agency notices on condition that the appellant shall provide a bank guarantee for the sum of Kshs. 1.5 million within 14 days in favour of the respondent pending the hearing and determination of appeal. 2.
