a

there is a receipt of a Schedule A business or an overseas property business (within the meaning of section 65A(4) or 70A(4) of ICTA) as a result of section 34 or 35 of ICTA (treatment of premiums etc as rent and assignments for profit of lease granted at an undervalue) for a tax year before the tax year 2005-06 or an accounting period ending before 1 April 2009, or

b

there would be such a receipt, but for the operation of section 37(2) or (3) of ICTA (reductions in certain receipts under section 34 or 35 of ICTA).

In this paragraph and paragraphs 19 and 20 a receipt falling within paragraph (a) or (b) is referred to as an “ICTA pre-commencement receipt”.

4

For the purposes of sections 62 to 67 the “unreduced amount” of a taxed receipt which is an ICTA pre-commencement receipt is the amount of the ICTA pre-commencement receipt as a result of section 34 or 35 of ICTA, before the operation of section 37(2) or (3) of ICTA.

5

Sub-paragraph (6) applies to a taxed receipt which is an ICTA pre-commencement receipt arising as a result of section 34(2) of ICTA (obligation on tenant to carry out work under lease).

6

If the obligation to carry out work included the carrying out of work which gave or will give rise to expenditure for which an allowance has been, or may be, made under the enactments relating to capital allowances, the unreduced amount of the taxed receipt is calculated as if the obligation had not included the carrying out of that work.
