INCOME TAX ASSESSMENT ACT 1997 - SECT 707.105

Who can utilise the loss?

  (1)   If the loss is transferred, the head company is treated for income years ending after the transfer as having made the loss, so the head company can utilise the loss for those income years to the extent permitted by:

  (a)   the general rules (outside this Part) about an entity utilising a loss it has made; and

  (b)   the special rules about transferred losses in the other Subdivisions of this Division that supplement and modify those general rules.

Note:   If the entity from which the loss was transferred became a subsidiary member of the consolidated group, the entity cannot utilise the loss for those income years because of section   701 - 1 (single entity rule) and section   707 - 140.

  (2)   If the loss is not transferred, then, for an income year ending after the time the entity became a member of the consolidated group, the loss cannot be utilised by any entity.

Note:   The loss will not be transferred if the entity would not have been able to utilise it or if the transfer is cancelled under section   707 - 145.
