INCOME TAX ASSESSMENT ACT 1997 - SECT 175.40

When Commissioner can disallow net capital loss of earlier income year

  (1)   This Subdivision sets out cases where the Commissioner may prevent a company, in working out its * net capital gain for an income year, from applying some or all of a * net capital loss it has for an earlier income year (or of part of one) (the excluded loss ). This is called disallowing the excluded loss.

Note:   A company's net capital gain for an income year is usually worked out under section   102 - 5.

  (2)   However, the Commissioner cannot * disallow the * excluded loss if, in determining (under section   165 - 96) whether Subdivision   165 - A would prevent the company from deducting the loss (or the part of the loss) for the income year if the loss were a * tax loss of the company for that earlier income year, the company:

  (a)   would fail to meet a condition in section   165 - 12 (which is about the company maintaining the same owners) in respect of the income year; but

  (b)   would meet the condition in section   165 - 13 in respect of the income year by satisfying the * business continuity test under section   165 - 210.

Note:   Subdivision   165 - A deals with the deductibility of a company's tax loss for an earlier income year if there has been a change in the ownership or control of the company in the period from the start of the loss year to the end of the income year.
