CGT Retirement Relief Anit Avoidance

censuspro · 2009-05-27 14:53:06

Does anyone know the anti avoidance (AA) to prevent an owner/sharholder selling his shares to a related entity to avail of retirement relief for CGT? e.g. I decide to sell shares in my own company to a company that I am a majority shareholder. I cant seem to find the section in the act.

The main anti avoidance section is S817 TCA 1997, it seeks to tax as income a capital event. It can sometimes be difficult to enforce and there are ways to protect against implementation
