Supreme Court clarifies VAT treatment of intra-group transfers of shares carried out by mixed holding companies
The Supreme Court has established ‘cassational’ doctrine regarding the treatment under value-added tax of intra-group transfers of shares by mixed holding companies. It is confirmed that the intra-group transfer of shares constitutes a financial activity that cannot generally be classified as a management support activity. Likewise, it is acknowledged that an intra-group transfer of shares may not be subject to said tax when it involves the indirect transfer of an independent economic unit, subjecting such exclusion to the circumstances surrounding the transaction.

Supreme Court rules on ‘administrative silence’ in the electricity sector: “public service” or “service of general economic interest”
The Supreme Court judgment of 10 April 2026 characterises the concept of public service under Article 24(1) of Act 39/2015 as an exception to the ‘double silence’ rule, distinguishing it from the concept of service of general economic interest, which applies in liberalized sectors such as that of electricity supply. The Supreme Court thus concludes that in seeking an authorisation to close a combined-cycle power plant, the ‘double silence’ rule applies to the effect of a presumption of approval.

Limitation of a patent and the Unified Patent Court’s ‘long arm’
We analyse the problems that arise when a claim is filed with the UPC for infringement of a unitary patent and, at the same time, for infringement of the validation of the basic European patent in States that are not party to the Agreement on a Unified Patent Court, and the claimant solely limits the unitary patent (because the defendant only files a counterclaim for revocation of the unitary patent with said court, but does not initiate any parallel revocation proceedings with the competent national court against the validations of the basic European patent in States that are not party to said agreement).
