Section 735AD — Income Tax Act 2007: Settlor liable for benefits charge despite being transferor

Settlor liable for benefits charge despite being transferor 735AD 1 For the purposes of section 732 (benefits charge: deemed income), subsection (1)(d) of that section (benefits charge confined to individuals not liable under section 720 or 727) is to be disregarded where the individual who receives the benefit is the settlor.

2 But any income treated as arising to the settlor under section 732(2) is not taxed under section 731 unless the income would, assuming that section 735A applied for this purpose by reference to the settlor, be matched under that section with an amount of relevant income that is protected foreign-source income or transitionally protected income in relation to the relevant transfer.
