Corporation Tax Act 2010

756 Partnership shares

(1) For the purposes of this Chapter a transfer of a right to relevant receipts consisting of the reduction in the transferor’s share in the profits or losses of a partnership is to be regarded as a consequence of a transfer of an asset from which the right arose (that is, the partnership property) if condition A or B is met.

(2) Condition A is that there is a reduction of the transferor’s share in the partnership property and the reduction in the transferor’s share in the profits or losses is proportionate to that reduction.

(3) Condition B is that it is not the main purpose, or one of the main purposes, of the transfer to secure that the relevant receipts are not charged to corporation tax or income tax as income of any partner or brought into account as income of any partner for the purpose of either of those taxes.
