Livestock sector aid under Royal Decree-Law 4/2023 is subject to Personal Income Tax as income from economic activity

A query was raised regarding whether direct aid to the livestock sector, intended to offset rising production costs, is exempt from Personal Income Tax (IRPF). The Directorate General for Taxes (DGT) ruled that such aid must be taxed as income from economic activity.

The question raised

Question posed: Whether such grants are exempt or not from taxation under Personal Income Tax (IRPF).

The DGT's ruling

Grants awarded to compensate for losses and increased production costs are considered income from economic activity due to their origin. Their temporal allocation is governed by accounting regulations, and they must be recognized as income in the fiscal year in which the expenses they finance are accrued, or in the year they are granted if they ensure minimum profitability. If they do not have a specific purpose, they are allocated in the fiscal year in which they are recognized as non-refundable.
