How the DGT's position has evolved
Current position
Capital losses from the transfer of securities admitted to trading are not recognized if homogeneous securities are acquired in the two months preceding or following the transfer. These losses may only be integrated as the securities remaining in the assets are definitively transferred. A transfer is considered definitive when no new repurchase occurs within the legally established timeframes.
The DGT's position has remained constant since 2018 regarding the prohibition of recognizing losses due to the acquisition of homogeneous securities. The criterion has remained stable, focusing the integration of the loss on the definitive transfer of the securities remaining in the assets to avoid the application of the repurchase rule.
