Transitional scheme
Regulations: Eighth transitional provision Law IRPF
Shares and stocks acquired before January 1, 1999
For the purposes of calculating the excess of the net asset value, the acquisition value will be taken as the net asset value on January 1, 1999, with respect to the shares and stocks owned by the taxpayer in said year. The difference between this value and the effective acquisition value shall not be taken as the acquisition value for the purposes of determining the income derived from the transfer or reimbursement of the shares or interests.
Profits obtained prior to January 1, 1999
Dividends and profit shares distributed by collective investment institutions, which derive from profits obtained prior to 1 January 1999, shall be included in the tax base of the partners or participants thereof. For these purposes, it shall be understood that the first distributed reserves have been allocated with the first profits earned.
Example:
Mr. SMG has held since March 1998 a share in a collective investment institution established in a country classified as a tax haven, the acquisition value of which was the equivalent of 12,020 euros.
The net asset value of said participation as of 31-12-2020 is 31,800 euros.
Determine the income attributable to the 2020 financial year, knowing that the net asset value of the participation as of 01-01-1999 amounted to the equivalent of 12,500 euros and that the imputed income in the financial years 1999 to 2019 amounted to 16,200 euros.
Solution:
Allocation of income corresponding to the 2020 financial year:
- Net asset value as of 12-31-2020: 31,800
- Acquisition value as of 01-01-2020: 28,700 (1)
- Attributable income (31,800 - 28,700) = 3,100
Note to example:
(1) The acquisition value at the beginning of the tax period is determined based on the net asset value as of 01-01-1999 (12,500 euros) and adding to that amount the income imputations made in the years 1999 to 2019 (16,200). So that: 12,500 + 16,200 = 28,700. (Back)
