A tax against a corporation is not payable by shareholders.

Shareholders share profits and losses. Who pays?

The corporation didn't pay the tax on their profits. The unpaid taxes became profits. The shareholders benefitted from the profits.

They can't raise the prices to cover the tax owed (not that that ever works) the corporation doesn't exist.
