663 The applicable rate for grossing up basic amounts of estate income

(b) the same rate applies to all the income from which section 679 treats the basic amount as having been paid,

the applicable rate is that rate.

(4) If—

(a) different parts of the aggregate income of the estate bear income tax at different rates, and

(b) different rates apply to different parts of the income from which section 679 treats the basic amount as having been paid,

each of those rates is the applicable rate by reference to which the corresponding part of the basic amount is grossed up.
