Otro extracto del mismo documento:
Consultado la Obligación financiera a la fecha la sociedad se encuentra al día con sus obligaciones fiscales, cumplió con la presentación de declaraciones de renta año 2005 -2015, Retención en la fuente desde 2005 al 2015; No es posible determinar la presunta omisión en aquellos periodos en que no figuren declaraciones, por cuanto no se tienen pruebas que lo obliguen a declarar por los periodos en los cuales no se hayan realizado operaciones (Art. 20 y 22 Pr. 2do Ley 1430 de 2010.
My try:
Upon consulting its financial obligation, to date the organization is in good standing in relation to its tax obligations. It filed its 2005 -2015 income tax returns on time. It also filed [and submitted] its withholding at source forms during the 2005 -2015 period. It was not possible to determine the alleged carelessness for those [accounting] periods not included in the tax returns, inasmuch as there is not any evidence that compels it to declare during the [accounting] periods in which no transactions were made (Art. 20 and Art. 22 second paragraph, Law 1430 issued in 2010).

alleged omission
You are right about "alleged" because this appears to be a charge against the party concerned, but the legal term would be "omission" rather than carelessness, in that it is considered a neglect of duty.
Omission (law)
An omission is a failure to act, which generally attracts different legal consequences from positive conduct. In the criminal law, an omission will constitute an actus reus and give rise to liability only when the law imposes a duty to act and the defendant is in breach of that duty. In tort law, similarly, liability will be imposed for an omission only exceptionally, when it can be established that the defendant was under a duty to act.

Spanish term (edited):
presunta omisión
rewrite it
I think the two previous answers are too literal, and the long, wordy sentence can be expressed much more simply and concisely in English. This may need tweaking depending on the wider context, which we don't have, but I suggest:
The company did not omit to file returns during the periods concerned. It was not required to do so, since it was not trading.
The company did not omit to file returns during the periods concerned. It was not required to do so, since it was not trading.

: Sorry, Phil, but I have to disagree here. The translation, though conceptually accurate, lacks a lot of the linguistic elements found in the ST.

If by "linguistic elements" you mean waffle, I agree. I don't see how you can say my translation is "conceptually accurate" but disagree with it.

Discussion
In addition, there are considerations here such as retaining certain key words in the text to emulate the cited sections of statute law that are relevant to the point in question.
