Preamble

Draft Taxation Determinations (TDs) present the preliminary, though considered, views of the ATO. Draft TDs may not be relied on; only final TDs are authoritative statements of the ATO.

1. A company which borrows to finance the acquisition or construction of a property may satisfy the tests in sub-section 51AD(8) if it has few assets.

2. If the assets of another group company are put at risk, then consideration would be given to the exercise of the discretion in sub-section 51AD(9).

Commissioner of Taxation
