Income Tax Act 2007 Explanatory Notes

Section 138: Ceasing to meet trading requirement because of administration or receivership

457.This section corresponds to section 182 with two changes. Section 182 is based on section 293(4A) to (6) and (8A) of ICTA.

458.The first change modifies section 182(3) by substituting for the reference to “the end of period B” a reference to “the time that is relevant for the purposes of section 134(2)”. This is the substitution required by section 576(4A)(d) of ICTA to section 293(5) of that Act, on which section 182(3) is based.

459.The second change modifies section 182(4) by omitting the reference to dissolution and adding the condition that the company continues, during the winding up, to be a trading company. These are the modifications required by section 576(4A)(b) of ICTA to section 293(6) of that Act, on which section 182(4) is based.
