IHTM04069 - Lifetime transfers: alteration in the share capital of a close company

An alteration made to a close company바카라 사이트™s unquoted share or loan capital (or any rights attaching to its unquoted shares or debentures) is treated as a disposition (IHTM04023) made by the participators, IHTA/S98 (1), whether or not it would be so treated apart the subsection. The disposition is apportioned amongst the participators in the same way as a transfer by a close company (IHTM04068). Shares and Assets Valuation (SAV) are responsible for all decisions in connection with this legislation and all such cases should be referred there. SAV will report the net amount apportioned to each participator.

The legislation IHTA84/S98 (3) specifically prevents the deemed disposition from being a potentially exempt transfer (IHTM04057), but being a deemed disposition (IHTM04023) rather than a deemed transfer of value (IHTM04025), all the exemptions are available against the resulting transfer of value. (IHTM04024)
