Section 409 Postponement until redemption of debits for close companies' deeply discounted securitiesC1
United Kingdom
This section applies for any accounting period (“the relevant period”) if—
a debtor relationship of a close company (“the issuing company”) is represented by a deeply discounted security it has issued,
at any time in the period there is a person F1("C") who stands in the position of a creditor as respects the security and is—
a participator in the issuing company,
an associate of such a participator,
a company of which such a participator has control,
a person who controls a company which is such a participator,
an associate of a person within sub-paragraph (iv), or
a company controlled by a person within sub-paragraph (iv),
the period is not the accounting period in which the security is redeemed, and
this section is not disapplied by section 410
F2and, where it applies, the non-qualifying territory condition is met.
The debits which are to be brought into account for the purposes of this Part by the issuing company in respect of the loan relationship are to be adjusted so that debits relating to the amount of the discount that is referable to the relevant period (“relevant debits”)—
are not brought into account for the relevant period, but
are brought into account for the accounting period in which the security is redeemed.
If there is a person within subsection (1)(b) for only part of the relevant period, subsection (2) applies only to the appropriate proportion of the relevant debits.
In subsection (3) “the appropriate proportion” means the proportion that the part of the relevant period for which there is such a person bears to the whole of that period.
The amount of the discount that is referable to the relevant period is the amount of it which would be brought into account for the purposes of this Part for the relevant period in the case of the issuing company, apart from subsections (2) and (3).
For the meaning of other expressions used in this section, see—
section 411 (interpretation of this section), and
section 412 (persons indirectly standing in the position of creditor).
