Section 12-NEW - [Newly enacted section not yet numbered] [Effective 1/1/2025] Computation of deduction(a) For purposes of this section, "valuation allowance" means the portion of a deferred tax asset for which it is more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized, as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.(b)(1) Any combined group that is described under subsection (b) of section 12-218g of the general statutes, is claiming the deduction under subsection (d) of said section and did not include in the computation of such deduction the impact of any valuation allowance arising from the enactment of sections 12-218e and 12-218 f of the general statutes, shall be eligible for the deduction under this subsection.(2) If the provisions of sections 12-218e and 12-218f of the general statutes resulted in an aggregate decrease in the amount of net operating losses or tax credits a combined group's members may realize in the state and a valuation allowance was reported in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the combined group shall be entitled to a deduction as determined under this subsection.(3) For the thirty-year period beginning with a combined group's first income year that begins in 2026, a combined group entitled to a deduction under this subsection shall deduct from combined group net income an amount equal to one-thirtieth of the amount necessary to offset the increase in the valuation allowance against net operating losses and tax credits in the state, as computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, that resulted from the enactment of sections 12-218e and 12-218f of the general statutes. Such increase in valuation allowance shall be computed based on the change in valuation allowance that was reported in the combined group's financial statements for the income year commencing on or after January 1, 2016, but prior to January 1, 2017.(c) The deduction computed under subsection (b) of this section shall not be reduced as a result of any events happening subsequent to such computation, including, but not limited to, any disposition or abandonment of assets. Such deduction shall not alter the tax basis of any asset. If the deduction under subsection (b) of this section is greater than the combined group net income, any excess deduction shall be carried forward and applied as a deduction to combined group net income in future income years until fully utilized.(d) Any combined group intending to claim a deduction under this section shall file a statement with the Commissioner of Revenue Services on or before July 1, 2025, specifying the total amount of the deduction the combined group claims. The statement shall be made on such form and in such manner as prescribed by the commissioner and shall contain such information or computations as the commissioner may specify. No deduction shall be allowed under this section for any income year except to the extent claimed on or before July 1, 2025, in the manner prescribed. Nothing in this subsection shall limit the authority of the commissioner to review or redetermine the proper amount of any deduction claimed, whether on the statement required under this subsection or on a tax return for any income year.Conn.
