The taxpayer inquired whether the reduction for seniority (Ninth Transitional Provision of the IRPF Act) could be applied to the sale of properties acquired before 1994. The Directorate General for Taxes (DGT) ruled that if the properties were part of a business lease during the three years prior to the sale, they are considered assets tied to an economic activity and are therefore ineligible for the reduction.
Question posed: Whether the Ninth Transitional Provision of the Personal Income Tax Law would be applicable to the proposed sale of the various real estate properties regarding the capital gain that might be generated, since they were acquired or constructed prior to December 31, 1994.
To apply the reduction of the Ninth Transitional Provision of the Personal Income Tax Law, the assets must be patrimonial elements not used for economic activities. They are considered not used for economic activities if the cessation of use occurred more than three years prior to the transfer. If the real estate properties were rented through a business lease, they are considered used for an economic activity and the reduction coefficients do not apply.
