DECISION CTA Case No. 10611 Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue x------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------x 2020 on Jet A-1 fuel sold to international air carriers for use or consumption outside the Philippines during the period from September 2019 to August 2020. RESPONDENT'S ARGUMENTS Respondent contends that petitioner is not entitled to the refund of excise taxes allegedly paid for the period from September 2019 to August 2020 on its sales and deliveries of Jet A-1 fuel to international carriers in the amount of P231 ,338,660.00; and that claims for refund of excise taxes paid are authorized only by Section 130(D) of the NIRC of 1997, as amended. THE COURT'S RULING The instant Petition for Review is partly meritorious. Relevant to the resolution of the instant case are Sections 204(C) and 229 of the NIRC of 1997, as amended, which read: SEC. 204. Authority of the Commissioner to Compromise, Abate and Refund or Credit Taxes. - The Commissioner may (C) Credit or refund taxes erroneously or illegally received or penalties imposed without authority, refund the value of internal revenue stamps when they are returned in good condition by the purchaser, and, in his discretion, redeem or change unused stamps that have been rendered unfit for use and refund their value upon proof of destruction. No credit or refund of taxes or penalties shall be allowed unless the taxpayer files in writing with the Commissioner a claim for credit or refund within two (2) years after the payment of the tax or penalty: Provided, however, That a return filed showing an overpayment shall be considered as a written claim for credit or refund." (Emphasis supplied) SEC. 229. Recovery of Tax Erroneously or fllegally Collected.- No suit or proceeding shall be maintained in any court for the recovery of any national internal revenue tax hereafter alleged to have been erroneously or illegally assessed or collected, or of any penalty claimed to have been collected without authority, or of any sum alleged to have been excessively or in any manner wrongfully v collected, until a claim for refund or credit has been duly filed

DECISION CTA Case No. 10611 Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue X------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------X with the Commissioner; but such suit or proceeding may be maintained, whether or not such tax, penalty, or sum has been paid under protest or duress. � In any case, no such suit or proceeding shall be filed after the expiration of two (2) years from the date of payment of the tax or penalty regardless of any supervening cause that may arise after payment: Provided, however, That the Commissioner may, even without a written claim therefor, refund or credit any tax, where on the face of the return upon which payment was made, such payment appears clearly to have been erroneously paid. (Emphases supplied) The aforequoted provisions are clear: within two years from the date of payment of tax, the claimant must first file an administrative claim with respondent before filing its judicial claim with the courts of law. Both claims must be filed within a two-year prescriptive period. Timeliness ofthe filing of the claim is mandatory and jurisdictional, and thus, the Court cannot take cognizance of a judicial claim for refund filed either prematurely or out of time. It is worthy to stress that as for the judicial claim, tax law even explicitly provides that it be filed within two years from payment of the tax "regardless of any supervening cause that may arise after payment."51 Moreover, the foregoing provisions authorize the recovery of taxes that were erroneously or illegally collected. An "erroneous or illegal tax" is defined as one levied without statutory authority, or upon property not subject to taxation, or by some officer having no authority to levy the tax, or one which in some other similar respect is illegal.52 In other words, what can be refunded or credited is a tax that is erroneously, illegally, excessively, or in any manner wrongfully collected. In short, there must be a wrongful payment because what is paid, or part of it, is not legally due.s3 Thus, for the present claim for refund or issuance of TCC to prosper, petitioner must establish not only that the claim was timely filed, but also that the exc1se taxes paid were "erroneously or illegally" collected. 51 Commissioner of Internal Revenue v.

DECISION CTA Case No. 10611 Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Page 9 of65 X------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------X Petitioner timely filed its administrative and judicial claims. a. Excise Tax on Importation of Jet A-1 Fuel In general, excise tax on imported articles is paid by the owner or importer upon importation and prior to removal from the customs house, as provided in Sections 129 and 131(A) of the NIRC of 1997, as amended, to wit: SEC. 129. Goods Subject to Excise Taxes. - Excise taxes apply to goods manufactured or produced in the Philippines for domestic sale or consumption or for any other disposition and to things imported. The excise tax imposed herein shall be in addition to the value-added tax imposed under Title IV. .. . (Emphasis and underscoring supplied) SEC. 131. Payment of Excise Taxes on Imported Articles.- (A) Persons Liable. - Excise taxes on imported articles shall be paid by the owner or importer to the Customs Officers, conformably with the regulations of the Department of Finance and before the release of such articles from the customshouse, or by the person who� is found in possession of articles which are exempt from excise taxes other than those legally entitled to exemption. .. . (Emphasis and underscoring supplied) Thus, based on the foregoing provisions, the two-year period prescribed in Sections 204(C) and 229 of the same Code, in relation to the above provisions, should be reckoned from the date of actual payment of the excise tax. In this case, records reveal that petitioner imported Jet A- -rl 1 fuel from August 2019 to December 2019, through its refinery in Tabangao, Batangas (Tabangao Refinery), and paid the corre,ponding exci" taxe,, "'follow""' 54 Refer to Exhibit �'P-124'" (Binder 1 of6), pp. 2 to 3 and Annex ..

In view of the timely filing of the present Petition for Review, this Court has jurisdiction to entertain the same. Having settled the foregoing matters, the Court shall now determine whether the excise taxes paid by petitioner from August 2019 to January 2020 on imported and � locally manufactured Jet A-1 fuel sold to international air carriers from September 20 19 to August 2020 were illegal or erroneous. The excise taxes paid on imported and locally manufactured or produced Jet A-1 fuel sold to international air carriers were erroneously or illegally collected. Respondent argues that based on Section 129 of the NIRC of 1997, as amended, petitioner, as a manufacturer of petroleum products sold to international carriers of Philippine or foreign registry, is liable to pay excise taxes due thereon. In other words, the petitioner becomes liable for excise tax upon the fuel it manufactures as soon as they are in existence. Petitioner may only claim a refund if the excise tax was erroneously paid. However, respondent stresses that the excise tax paid by petitioner was legally and validly collected, as it is indeed liable to pay such tax. Respondent further contends that since petitioner sold fuel to international carriers, Section 135 of the NIRC of 1997, as amended, applies, which exempts the buyers, i.e., international carriers, from excise tax. As such, the buyer of the fuel is not liable to pay the excise tax due thereon, or, in other words, the excise tax due on the said transaction cannot be included in the purchase price, as the buyers are already exempt entities. Respondent also claims that on its face, Section 135 of the NIRC of 1997, as amended, does not grant exemption to sellers. Rather, it enumerates transactions where petroleum product~ / 88 Docket- Vol. I, pp. 7-35. \'l"

DECISION CTA Case No. 10611 Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue x------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------x sold to international carriers and entities enumerated therein are exempt from excise tax. Petitioner anchors its. claim for refund on Section 135 of the NIRC of 1997, as amended. However, respondent argues that this provision cannot be invoked by sellers like petitioner, but only by the exempt buyers. In the case at hand, the petroleum product sold is subject to excise tax, as it is a fact that the buyers, as enumerated in Section 135, are exempt entities. Thus, respondent asserts that petitioner cannot invoke the exemption granted to these exempt entities as a ground to claim a refund of the excise tax paid. The Court disagrees with respondent. To recall, Section 129 of the NIRC of 1997, as amended, states that excise taxes apply to "goods manufactured or produced in the Philippines for domestic sale or consumption or for any other disposition and to things imported, as well as services performed in the Philippines." Corollary thereto, Section 135 of the NIRC of 1997, as amended, reads: SEC. 135. Petroleum Products Sold to International Carriers and Exempt Entities or Agencies. - Petroleum products sold to the following are exempt from excise tax: (a) International carriers of Philippine or foreign registry on their use or consumption outside the Philippines: Provided, That the petroleum products sold to these international carriers shall be stored in a bonded storage tank and may be disposed of only in accordance with the rules and regulations to be prescribed by the Secretary of Finance, upon recommendation of the Commissioner; (b) Exempt entities or agencies covered by tax treaties, conventions, and other international agreements for their use or consumption: Provided, however, That the country of said foreign international carrier or exempt entities or agencies exempts from similar taxes petroleum products sold to Philippine carriers, entities or agencies; (c) Entities which are by law exempt from direct and indirect taxes." (Emphasis and underscoring supplied) A plain reading of Section 135 reveals that the term "petroleum products" is not qualified. The law does not distinguish between locally manufactured and imported ~

DECISION CTA Case No. 10611 Pi1ipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue X------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------X petroleum products to qualify for an excise tax exemption. Where the law does not distinguish, courts should not distinguish.89 Thus, the exemption under Section 135 applies regardless of whether the subject Jet A-1 fuel was locally manufactured or imported, provided the conditions therein are complied with by the refund claimant. Moreover, in Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue (2021 Pilipinas Shell case),90 the Supreme Court sitting En Bane discussed lengthily the nature of excise tax in this wise: By its nature, an excise tax under the Philippine taxation system pertains to the tax levied on certain goods, whether at a specific rate or ad valorem. As case law characterizes, an excise tax is not a tax on the exercise of a privilege, but rather a levy on certain articles which are manufactured or imported for domestic consumption. It is equally settled that the accrual or liability to pay the same arises immediately upon importation or as soon as the goods come into existence when manufactured. Furthermore, excise taxes are indirect taxes, as opposed to direct taxes. Pertinently, these types of taxes relate to the statutory taxpayer who is obligated to pay taxes to the government. In this relation, one must understand the concepts of tax incidence (or the actual liability to pay the tax) and tax burden (the economic burden of the tax incident). On the one hand, direct taxes are 'those that are exacted from the very person who, it is intended or desired, should pay them; they are impositions for which a taxpayer is directly liable on the transaction or business he is engaged in,' which means, the tax incidence and tax burden fall upon the same person. On the other, indirect taxes are 'those that are demanded, in the first instance, from, or are paid by, one person in the expectation and intention that he can shift the burden to someone else. Stated elsewise, indirect taxes are taxes wherein the liability for the payment of the tax falls on one person but the burden thereof can be shifted or passed on to another person, such as when the tax is imposed upon goods before reaching the consumer who ultimately pays for it. When the seller passes on the tax to his buyer, he, in effect, shifts the tax burden, not the liability to pay it, to the purchaser as part of the price of goods sold or services rendered.' As jurisprudence explains, 'this shifting process, ~ 89 Manila International Airport Authority v. Court ofAppeals, eta!., G.R. No. 155650, July 20,2006 [Per J. Carpio. En Bane]. 90 G.R. No. 211303, June 15,2021 [Per J. Perlas-Bernabe. En Bane].

DECISION CTA Case No. 10611 Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue X------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------X otherwise known as 'passing on,' is largely a contractual affair between the parties. Meaning, even if the purchaser effectively pays the value of the tax, the manufacturer [or] producer (in case of goods manufactured or produced in the Philippines for domestic sales or consumption or for any other disposition) or the owner or importer (in case of imported goods) [is] still regarded as the statutory [taxpayer] under the law. To this end, the purchaser does not really pay the tax; rather, he only pays the seller more for the goods because of the latter's obligation to the government as the statutory taxpayer.' Thus, when it comes to indirect taxes, the statutory taxpayer remains to be the manufacturer or importer of the articles. Despite being able to pass the burden of the tax to the buyer as an inherent component of the total price of the article, the onus to actually pay the excise tax and to remit the returns incidental thereto remains with the statutory taxpayer, who must correspondingly benefit from any tax exemption. In effect, upon the sale of the goods, the portion of the price corresponding to the excise tax originally paid by the manufacturer or importer is not per se the excise tax liability imposed under Section 129 of the Tax Code. The price passed on, and assumed by the buyer of the goods, is therefore no different from any other component cost in arriving at the price of the article sold, such as raw material cost or distributed overhead expenses. In a similar situation, the Court held that '[e)ven if the consumers or purchasers ultimately pay for the tax, they are not considered the taxpayers. The fact that [statutory taxpayer1importer], on whom the excise tax is imposed, can shift the tax burden to its purchasers does not make the latter the taxpayers and the former the withholding agent. [The purchaserI end-consumer] ultimately bears the tax burden, but this does not transform [its] status into a statutory taxpayer.' This distinction between statutory taxpayer and the purchaser who assumes the tax burden when the costs of the taxes are passed on to it as part of the purchase price is material to understand the 'exemption' granted under Section 135 governing excise taxes. III. At its core, the purpose of a grant of tax exemption is 'some public benefit or interest, which the law-making body considers sufficient to offset the monetary loss entailed in the grant of the exemption.' However, the object of the grant of tax exemption is not necessarily a natural person similar to how 'the objects of taxation are either persons, property[,] and property rights within the jurisdiction of the taxing authority.' As such, generally speaking, the object of tax exemptions may either be personal or impersonal. Personal exemptions conceptually pertain to those 'granted directly in

DECISION CTA Case No. 10611 Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue X------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------X favor of such persons as are within the contemplation of the law granting the exemption.' On the other hand, an impersonal exemption may be said to exist when a tax exemption is 'granted directly in favor of a certain class of property.' If the tax exemption is impersonal in nature, then, regardless of who transacts with the property, the exemption should still apply. This framework of personal and impersonal tax exemptions underpins the exemption granted under Section 135 on excisable articles. Notably, the Court, in the 2014 Pilipinas Shell Resolution, stated that the 'exemption from payment of excise tax' under Section 135 is 'conferred on international carriers who purchased the petroleum products of respondent'; thus, in said case, the tax exemption under Section 135 covering said products was characterized as a grant of a personal tax exemption. However, in the subsequent case of 2015 Chevron, the Court effectively abandoned the foregoing characterization, and instead, correctly categorized that the tax exemption under Section 135 is 'in favor of the petroleum produc;ts on which the excise tax was levied in the first place.' As such, the Court, in 2015 Chevron, validated the nature of Section 135 as a provision conferring an impersonal tax exemption, which, in fact, cogently squares with the nature of excise taxes being a tax on property, rather than a tax on persons. Being an impersonal tax exemption, Section 135 cannot be therefore interpreted as an exemption primarily conferred to the buyers because 'they are not under any legal duty to pay the excise tax.' To reiterate, upon the buyers' purchase of the articles, the 'excise tax' they pay, if any, is, in reality, a mere passed-on cost that forms part of the purchase price. Hence, while purchasers bear the economic burden, they do not, by the mere fact of assuming the passed-on costs, become legally regarded as statutory taxpayers. In this regard, Associate Justice Henri Jean Paul B. Inting aptly observed that 'a tax immunity would lose its meaning if we insist that it is available only to a person who, in the first place, has no obligation to pay the tax due on the subject article/transaction. It can only be enjoyed in its truest'sense by the person who is liable for the tax and wishes to be immune from therefrom.' The impersonal nature of the tax exemption IS also expressed in the wording itself of Section 135: As worded, the object of Section 135 itself is not the enumerated persons but rather, the 'petroleum products sold.' Palpably, based on Section 135's phraseology, the

DECISION CTA Case No. 10611 Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue X------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------X enumerated persons are merelv descriptive of the petroleum products, i.e., the persons to which the products are sold to. As such, the wording of Section 135 hews more closely with the character of impersonal tax exemptions, which is, in turn, consistent with the nature of excise taxes as taxes not on persons but on the goods/articles. As equally observed by Associate Justice Alfredo Benjamin S. Caguioa, '[t]he succeeding paragraphs (a), (b), and (c) do not confer nor refer to the tax exemption. Paragraphs (a), (b)[,] and (c) simply enumerate and describe the entities to whom petroleum products must be sold to make the excise tax exemption operative.' IV. At this juncture, it is likewise relevant to mention that since an excise tax is in the nature of a property tax, it is thus erroneous to consider the operation of a tax exemption thereto in the same way as a transactional tax, wherein every purchaser and seller may be considered as a statutory taxpayer for every succeeding transaction, only ending with the final consumer. Rather, the exemption under Section 135 must be reconciled with the idea that liability for the tax attaches to the articles as soon as they come into existence or immediately upon importation. The Court, in the 2015 Chevron, had already settled that the true status of the goods, whether ultimately taxable or tax-exempt, is actually conditional or subject to confirmation upon the sale of the articles to any of the entities enumerated under Section 135. This conditional taxability can actually be seen in another related provision in the Tax Code, i.e., Section 131 thereof: Section 131. Payment of Excise Taxes on Imported Articles. - (A) Persons Liable. - Excise taxes on imported articles shall be paid by the owner or importer to the Customs Officers, conformably with the regulations of the Department of Finance and before the release of such articles from the' customs house, or by the person who is found in possession of articles which are exempt from excise taxes other than those legally entitled to exemption. In the case of tax-free articles brought or imported into the Philippines by persons, entities, or agencies exempt from tax which are subsequentlv sold, transferred or exchanged in the Philippines to non-exempt persons or entities, the purchasers or

DECISION CTA Case No, 10611 Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v, Commissioner of Internal Revenue X------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------X recipients shall be considered the importers thereof, and shall be liable for the duty and internal revenue tax due on such importation., x x x x (Emphasis and underscoring supplied) As may be gleaned from Section 131 as above-cited, although certain articles may be free from excise taxes upon importation, they may subsequently become subject to the same depending on the subsequent buyer, This is essentially the same principle of subsequent confirmation espoused by the 20 15 Chevron, and is also a necessary consequence of excise tax being a property tax, and not a tax on persons, Considering that the status of the petroleum products as tax-exempt solidifies upon the sale to any of the entities enumerated under Section 135, any excise taxes which were previously paid thereon would then be considered as 'erroneously or illegally collected,' and therefore, subject to refund. In turn, the petroleum products become exempt from excise taxes once it is determined that they are to be sold to, among others, international carriers, This reflects Section !35's wording, i,e,, that the petroleum products are considered as tax-exempt once they are 'sold to [inter alia] x x x [i]nternational carriers,' Based on (a) the nature of excise taxes as a property tax and an indirect tax, and (b) the principle that a buyer, when shouldering the tax burden, does not become the statutory taxpayer, it is thus clear that the purchaser of local products (such as international carriers) cannot be deemed to have been conferred a tax exemption when it has not been imposed a tax liability, In the ordinary course of things, international carriers do not manufacture or import petroleum products and hence, are not statutory taxpayers to which the exemption under Section 135 could pertain, If anything, international carriers merely bear the tax burden when the costs therefor are passed on to them by the actual manufacturers or importers, However, as earlier discussed, the 'passing on' of the tax burden is largely a contractual affair between the parties and should not determine the tax incidence imposed by law unless the contrary is provided, As such, the tax exemption under Section 135 must correspondingly benefit the one who actually bears the liability to pay the same (i.e., the importers/manufacturers of petroleum products sold to international carriers, among others), and not the one who simply bears the economic burden thereof (i.e., the purchasers of the products, such as international carriers). (Emphasis supplied)

DECISION CTA Case No. 10611 Pilipinas Shell Petroleum Corporation v. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Page 23 of65 x------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------x The Supreme Court has categorically rejected respondent's argument that only buyers who are exempt entities may invoke the excise tax exemption under Section 135. Contrary to this claim, the Supreme Court clarified that the exemption must benefit the party legally liable to pay the tax, namely, the importer or manufacturer of petroleum products sold to international carriers, not merely the party that bears the economic burden, such as the purchaser. Applying the foregoing principle, petitioner's sale of imported and locally manufactured Jet A-1 fuel to international air carriers renders the fuel tax-exempt. Accordingly, the excise taxes previously paid on the imported and locally manufactured Jet A-1 fuel were erroneously or illegally collected and are the proper subject of a claim for refund or credit under Sections 204(C) and 229 of the NIRC of 1997, as amended. The excise taxes due on the imported and locally produced Jet A-1 fuel subject of the present claim were duly paid by petitioner. Records show that petitioner, which operates its own Tabangao Refinery, generally produces Jet A-1 fuel through the crude oil refining process. When additional supplies are required, the petitioner first attempts to source them from local suppliers before resorting to importation.91 Petitioner occasionally imports finished Jet A-1 fuel, particularly when the refinery shuts down or if the demand for Jet A-1 fuel exceeds the projected supply of locally manufactured Jet A-1 fuel.92 Also, petitioner follows a defined process and documentation flow, with respect to the importation' of Jet A-1 fuel, which may be simplified in the following stages: (1) requisition of goods and importation; (2) arrival and discharge of imported goods; and (3) payment of taxes and import duties. 93 91 Q&A No. I0, Exhibit "P-I 03", Docket- Vol. I, p. 117. 92 Q&A No. 11, Exhibit ''P-103", Docket- Vo1.1, p. 117. 93 Q&A No. 13, Exhibit ''P-1 03", Docket- Vol. I. p. 117.

The ORB indicates the "receipts" and "removals" of Jet A-1 fuel for a certain period, the running 187 Exhibit "P-I 03", Docket- Vol. I, pp. 114--132. 188 Exhibit ''P-104��, Docket- Vol. I, pp. 231-245. 189 Exhibit ''P-119", Docket- Vol. I, pp. 365-378. 190 Exhibit "P-118", Docket- Vol. 11, pp. 356--361. 1�1 Q&A No. 33, Exhibit �'P-103", Docket- Vol. I, p. 121 192 Q&A No. 44, Exhibit "P-I 03", Docket- Vol. L p. 129.

Locally manufactured Jet A-1 fuels are identified as "Production" while imported Jet A-1 fuels are indicated under "Receipts Import". In its withdrawals of Jet A-1 fuel from the storage tanks, petitioner adopts a first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.l94 The withdrawals from the Tabangao Refinery are also covered by Wes, which indicate the destination of the fuel. Jet A-1 fuel destined for JOeASP and eASI first passes through Tabangao Depot, while Jet A-1 fuel destined for TOGRI is delivered directly from the Tabangao Refinery. Hence, the wes of Jet A-1 fuel destined for JOeASP and eASI coming from the Tabangao Refinery indicate Tabangao Depot as "Destination", while the wes for deliveries to TOGRI indicate "Total Bulk, eebu" as "Destination" _195 If the Jet A-1 fuel to be withdrawn from the refinery is imported, then the We, which is noted as "Tax Paid," means that the excise tax on the imported Jet A-1 fuel was already paid to the BOe. Since this we covers the withdrawal or removal of imported Jet A-1 fuel, the we indicates that the fuel covered thereby is "Tax Paid".l96 As for the payment of excise tax related to� locally manufactured Jet A-1 fuel, Ms. Flores explains that prior to withdrawal of locally manufactured petroleum products, including Jet A-1 fuel, petitioner files an Excise Tax Return under which it pays for its excise tax liability for the petroleum products withdrawn by applying the advance payment previously made. The excise tax liability paid through the application of advance payments is supported by the corresponding Daily Product Deliveries Reports (DPDR) as of the time of filing of the Excise Tax Return.l97 She also claims that the imported Jet A-1 fuel is stored in storage tanks located at JOeASP, eASI, or TOGRI to await sale and delivery to international carriers. Jet A-1 fuel is eventually delivered to international air carriers via a specialized vehicle 191 Q&A No. 45, Exhibit "P-103", Docket- Vol. I, p. 129. 194 Q&A No. 25, Exhibit "P-119', Docket- Vol. I, p. 371. 195 Q&A No. 45, Exhibit "P-103", Docket- Vol. I, pp. 129-130. 196 Q&A No. 48, Exhibit �'P-1 03", Docket- Vol. I, p. 130. 197 Q&A No. I7, Exhibit "P-119', Docket- Vol. I, p. 369.

The specialized vehicle is equipped with a meter that determines the volume of Jet A-1 fuel delivered to the customer.l98 Upon removal of the imported Jet A-1 fuel from the Tabangao Refinery through the Tabangao Depot for deliveries to JOCASP and CASI or directly from the Tabangao Refinery for deliveries to TOGRI, the Jet A-1 fuel is accompanied by a Bulk Delivery Note, which provides the date of the transfer of the imported Jet A-1 fuel, its volume, its source, and its destination.! 99 Furthermore, the sales and deliveries of imported Jet A-1 fuel to international air carriers are supported by Aviation Service Returns (ASRs) and petitioner's invoices. In an ASR, the customer acknowledges the receipt from petitioner of a particular volume of Jet A-1 fuel. On the other hand, the petitioner's Invoice indicates the quantity, unit price, any other charges, and the total amount due for the Jet A-1 fuel sold and delivered to the customer. 2oo The ASR is either printed through the Data Capture System (DCS) used by petitioner or manually prepared when the system is down. With the DCS, the details of the delivery are immediately captured by petitioner's computer system, enabling it to generate a report daily. A Monthly Supplier Sales Report may be generated by the DCS to summarize the daily deliveries to air carrier customers. It indicates the ASR number and date, the customer, the aircraft registration number, the volume of Jet A-1 fuel delivered to that customer, the aircraft's destination, and the invoice number and date. A Daily Product Movement Report Subject to Excise Tax Claim is also prepared, which is the summary of all transactions for the day, including receipts from the Tabangao Refinery.2o1 As may be gleaned from respondent's denial letter, 2�2 respondent stood by his decision to deny petitioner's. claim due to the latter's failure to comply with the mandatory requirements prescribed under the provisions of the pertinent laws and regulations, as follows: 198 Q&A No. 27, Exhibit "P-119.., Docket-- Vol. I, p. 372. 199 Q&A No. 18, Exhibit �'P-119", Docket- Vol. I, p. 369. 200 Q&A No. 28, Exhibit ��p_ I I9'', Docket- Vol. I, p. 372. 200 Q&A No. 21, Exhibit �'P-104", Docket- Vol. 1, pp. 237-238. 202 Exhibit �'R-3", BlR Records (Exhibit "R-4")- Folder I of 4, pp. 781-782.

Printouts of petitioner's Global System Application Product System showing "Overview of Billing Items" and "Pricing Details" (F4 Display Printouts)21o Additionally, since the ORBs were duly signed jointly by an authorized representative of petitioner and ROOP, the ORBs are sufficient supporting documents of transfers from Tabangao Depot to JOCASP and CASI. However, upon scrutiny of the ORBs submitted, the Court found that the Mandaue ORBs for September 2019, January 2020, and August 2020 do not carry the signature of the ROOP. 211 In justifying the non-presentation of the original copies of the subject ORBs covering the sales of Jet A-1 fuel to international air carriers from TOGRI for September 2019 and from January 2020 to August 2020, Ms. Flores explains that the original copies of the same had been lost because of the flood brought about by super typhoon Odette and, as such, petitioner was only able to retrieve the soft copies of excel sheets containing the figures and information of the lost ORBs. 21 2 Considering that the receipts and removals of Jet A-1 fuel at Tabangao Refinery, Pandacan installation, JOCASP, and CASI are indicated in the ORBs prepared by both the ROOP and petitioner's representative,21 3 petitioner should have presented any proof showing the concurrence of the ROOP who signed the same or should have obtained certified true copies of the ORBs from the BIR where the same are being filed so that the Court can verify petitioner's allegations relating to the information reflected in the said ORBs. Due to such failure, the Court cannot rely on the submitted ORBs in the present case. Consequently, We have no recourse but to disallow the ORBs covering the sales of Jet A-1 fuel to international air carriers from TOGRI for September 2019 and from January 2020 to August 2020. From the foregoing, petitioner proved its compliance with the first requirement but only up to the extent of sales made from JOCASP and CASI and sales from TOGRI, and only for August 2019 and October to December 2019. 21 0 Exhibits ��p.JQ7.Jb" to "P.J07�3397b", USB (Exhibit ��p.J24�2"). 211 Exhibits "P�I Q9.2d" and ��p.J 09�6d" to "P�I 09�13d", USB (Exhibit "P�l24�2"). 21 2 Q&A Nos. 10 and 14, Exhibit ''P�120", Docket- Vol. II. pp. 959-960. 213 Summary of Annexes and Exhibits, Exhibit ''P-124", p. 23.

To prove its compliance with the second requirement, petitioner presented the letter certification from the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) dated February 22, 2022, 214 which confirms the countries of registration of the international air carriers, whom petitioner allegedly sold and delivered Jet A-1 fuel subject of the present claim, based on the aircraft registration code as provided by such international air carrier and as appearing in the ASRs.
