Phoenix Music, the record label established by the singer Anna Asti, announced that its outstanding balance with the Federal Tax Service has been settled in full. The company disclosed that the resolution of the matter was completed in November 2023, contrary to some media reports claiming the debt remained unpaid. This clarification came directly from Phoenix Music, aiming to set the record straight about the label’s financial obligations.
The label emphasized that if a debt of this nature existed or if any media coverage suggested ongoing collection activity, the company would have faced immediate operational disruptions. In particular, an account blockage would hinder daily operations, compromise the signing of new deals with partners and artists, and disrupt ongoing business activities. Phoenix Music stressed that maintaining compliant financial practices is a core priority, and the organization continues to operate strictly within the laws of the Russian Federation.
Media coverage from February 5 suggested that Phoenix Music LLC had accrued a debt of 7.6 million rubles and indicated that the debt had not been resolved. Phoenix Music subsequently provided evidence that the obligation had been discharged by the given date and asserted that the debt history should no longer affect the company’s current financial standing. This response was part of a broader effort to address rumors and present a transparent view of the label’s fiscal health for investors and industry partners.
