RWANDA REVENUE AUTHORITY (RRA) v. RWAMAGANA RICE Ltd
Rice processed by removing the husk does not become a new food type nor gain new value as required by VAT law for processed foods. Therefore, rice sold by RWAMAGANA RICE Ltd is not subject to TVA, and the Commercial High Court correctly interpreted and applied the statutory and regulatory provisions. RRA's appeal lacks merit.
