The director of the former “Rural house” appeared SUV for 6.5 million — as a compensation

According to Malysheva, the car came into the ownership of RAC as a compensation from the counterparty-debtor to repay the debt under the previously concluded contract. This Orenday was reported by the Director General of RSC Tatiana Malysheva.

“The acceptance of a car as a compensation is conditional on the need to meet claims for existing debt. This method of termination of the obligation is provided for by Article 409 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and allows you to repay the debt without going to court and without additional costs for the sale of the debtor's property, she explained.

The money for the car JSC did not pay, since its value did not exceed receivables.

The main reason in RAC is the deterioration of the company's fleet, there are cars older than six years with mileage exceeding 216,000 kilometers, which need repair.

“Getting a car as a compensation allowed to simultaneously solve two tasks: to repay the existing debt of the debtor and partially update the fleet, reducing the cost of repairing worn-out equipment without additional monetary costs,” Malysheva admits.

Now for details that raise questions. On the website of the official dealer, the price of the new model GAC S7 in premium configuration is lower - 6,249,000 rubles, and taking into account the trade-in, you can save another 200 thousand. That is, the car cost RSC more than it costs at the dealer. At the same time, the company insists that the adoption of the car as a compensation “is economically justified and corresponding to the interests of JSC SZ RSC.” For which staff employee the car is assigned, RAC correspondents Orenday did not specify.

Separately, it is worth recalling the context. Tatiana Malysheva became the head of the “Rural House” only six months ago, in March. During this time, the former people’s company, which a few years ago really helped Orenburg residents to buy housing, finally changed the concept and signage. More than a month as a joint-stock company - "Regional Construction Company", the founder of which is the Ministry of Natural Resources, Ecology and Property Relations of the Orenburg region.

Here's a few things. The first is the price, a car taken on account of debt is more expensive than a similar new car from an official dealer. Formally, this is not a violation, because the concession is an agreement of the parties, but economic logic raises questions. The second is the status of the company: RAC was established by the Ministry, that is, we are talking about state property, and each such transaction should be especially transparent. The third is a question that remains unanswered, for whom the car is fixed. If the car is needed to update the worn fleet, it is logical to assume that it will go for general needs. But if it was given to a specific manager, that’s a different story, especially given the fact that the rest of the employees, according to the company, continue to drive vehicles older than six years.

Do you think it’s normal for a state-owned company to take a car more expensive than the market price, or should there be more stringent evaluation criteria?
