INCOME TAX ASSESSMENT ACT 1997 - SECT 45.1

What this Division is about

This Division is designed to prevent tax being avoided through:

  (a)   the disposal of leased plant, or an interest in leased plant; or

  (b)   the disposal of a partnership interest in a partnership that leased plant; or

  (c)   the disposal of shares in a 100% subsidiary that leased plant;

where amounts have been deducted for the decline in value of the plant.

It includes amounts in assessable income. Any benefit received, and any reduction in a liability, is taken into account in calculating the amounts included.

Where the disposal of shares in a 100% subsidiary is involved, the companies in the former wholly - owned group may be made jointly and severally liable for tax that the former subsidiary does not pay.
