Possibility of applying the special regime for exchange of securities subject to compliance with legal requirements and valid economic reasons

A consulting company has enquired whether a share acquisition transaction may qualify for the special regime for the exchange of securities. The DGT has ruled that this is possible provided that the legal requirements are met and the transaction is driven by valid economic reasons, rather than purely tax-driven motives.

The question raised

Question raised 1º) Whether the described operation may qualify for the special tax regime provided for in Chapter VII of Title VII of Law 27/2014, of November 27, on Corporate Income Tax.

The DGT's ruling

Para aplicar el régimen especial de canje de valores, la entidad debe adquirir participaciones que le permitan obtener la mayoría de derechos de voto y cumplir los requisitos del artículo 80 de la LIS. La operación no debe tener como principal objetivo el fraude o la evasión fiscal, debiendo responder a motivos económicos válidos como la reestructuración o racionalización de actividades. Asimismo, los dividendos futuros de la participada podrían estar exentos si se cumplen los requisitos de participación y antigüedad del artículo 21.1 de la LIS.
