  (a)

  if the partner was a partner on the effective date of the transfer of the relevant chargeable interest to the partnership, is that date;

  (b)

  if the partner became a partner after that date, is the date on which the partner became a partner.

  The result is the increased partnership share.

• Step 3 Deduct from the increased partnership share any decreases in the partner's partnership share which occur in the period starting on the day after the relevant date and ending immediately before the transaction to which paragraph 22 applies. The result is the partnership share attributable to the partner.

(5) If the effect of applying Step 3 would be to reduce the partnership share attributable to the partner below zero, the partnership share attributable to the partner is zero.

(6) If the partner ceased to be a partner before the effective date of the transfer of the relevant chargeable interest to the partnership, the partnership share attributable to the partner is zero.

(7) An increase counts for the purpose of Step 2 only if—

(a) where the transfer which resulted in the increase took place on or before 22 July 2004, the instrument by which the transfer was effected has been stamped with ad valorem stamp duty;

(b) where the transfer which resulted in the increase took place after that date, any land transaction tax or, as the case may be, stamp duty land tax payable in respect of the transfer has been paid.
