(2) A new business does not include: (i) any new business of which twenty-five percent or more of the number of shares of stock that enti- tle the holders thereof to vote for the election of directors or trus- tees is owned, directly or indirectly, by a taxpayer subject to tax under section one hundred eighty-three, one hundred eighty-four[,] OR one hundred eighty-five [or one hundred eighty-six of article nine] of the tax law, or under article nine-a, thirty-two or thirty-three of the tax law or (ii) any new business substantially similar in operation and in ownership, directly or indirectly, to a business entity (or entities) taxable, or previously taxable, under such section, such article[, arti- A. 5326 5 cle twenty-three of the tax law] or which would have been subject to [tax under such article twenty-three (as such article was in effect on January first, nineteen hundred eighty) or] the income (or losses) of which is (or was) includible under article twenty-two of [such] THE tax law whereby the intent and purpose of this section would be evaded.

For taxable years beginning before January first, nineteen hundred eighty-eight, at the option of the taxpayer, there may be subtracted from federal adjusted gross income a reinvested amount of long-term capital gain realized in a taxable year from the sale of a capital asset, as such term is defined in section twelve hundred twenty-one of the internal revenue code, which is not a new business investment. A reinvested amount of long-term capital gain shall mean an amount which bears the same ratio to the long-term capital gain realized from the sale of a capital asset which was includible in New York adjusted gross income as that portion of the sale proceeds which is reinvested, within one year from date of sale, in a New York new business bears to the total sale proceeds. For the purposes of this subdivision, a New York new business is a business enterprise which: (1) has been a taxpayer under article nine-A, twenty-two, thirty-two or thirty-three of the tax law for no more than three taxable years (including short taxable years), (2) over fifty percent of the number of shares of stock that entitle the holders thereof to vote for the election of directors or trustees is not owned, directly or indirectly, by a taxpayer subject to tax under section one hundred eighty-three, one hundred eighty-four[,] OR one hundred eighty-five [or one hundred eight- y-six of article nine] of the tax law, or under article nine-A, thirty- two or thirty-three of the tax law, (3) is not substantially similar in operation or ownership, directly or indirectly, to a business entity (or entities) taxable, or previously taxable, under such sections, such articles[, article twenty-three of the tax law] or which would have been subject to [tax under article twenty-three (as such article was in effect on January first, nineteen hundred eighty) or] the income (or losses) of which is (or was) includible under article twenty-two of the tax law whereby the intent and purpose of this subdivision would be evaded, (4) locates and employs at least ninety percent of its assets in the state, (5) employs principally in the state eighty percent of its employees (as ascertained within the meaning and intent of subparagraph three of paragraph (a) of subdivision three of section two hundred ten of the tax law and, in addition, in the case of a partnership, excluding partners), and (6) derives less than forty percent of its gross income from dividends, interest, royalties (other than mineral, oil, or gas royalties or copyright royalties), annuities and (7) reports at least twenty-five hundred dollars in gross income in any taxable year. The reinvested amount must qualify as a capital asset as defined pursuant to section twelve hundred twenty-one of the internal revenue code and must be retained by the taxpayer for at least twelve months. The modification allowable under this subdivision shall be utilized with respect to the taxable year in which the twelve month retention period ends. S 24.

Thereafter, during the first four taxable years of such new business, along with, and as part of, any return required under such articles, such new business A. 5326 10 shall make and file a new business certificate for the period covered by such return attesting to whether it has met the conditions specified in this subparagraph during the taxable period covered by such return. If no return is required under such articles, such certificate shall be filed annually on or before the fifteenth day of March which shall cover the twelve consecutive calendar month period ending on the last day of December immediately preceding such March fifteenth. If such new busi- ness fails to meet such conditions specified in this subparagraph, it shall, in addition, give notice of this fact, within the time prescribed by the state tax commission, to the holders of its "new business invest- ments." The state tax commission shall prescribe the form and content of such new business certification and may require a new business to file such certificate for periods (even if no return is filed or required, but for this section) covering up to eight years from the date of adoption of such plan, as in its discretion, it deems the same necessary for the enforcement of this subparagraph, and (2) A new business does not include (i) any new business of which twenty-five percent or more of the number of shares of stock that enti- tle the holders thereof to vote for the election of directors or trus- tees is owned, directly or indirectly, by a taxpayer subject to tax under section one hundred eighty-three, one hundred eighty-four[,] OR one hundred eighty-five [or one hundred eighty-six of article nine] of this chapter, or under article nine-A, thirty-two or thirty-three of this chapter or (ii) any new business substantially similar in operation and in ownership, directly or indirectly, to a business entity (or enti- ties) taxable, or previously taxable, under such sections, such arti- cles, [article twenty-three] or which would have been subject to [tax under article twenty-three (as such article was in effect on January first, nineteen hundred eighty) or] the income (or losses) of which is (or was) includable under THIS article [twenty-two] whereby the intent and purpose of this subsection would be evaded. S 37. Subsection (p) of section 612 of the tax law, as amended by chapter 28 of the laws of 1987, is amended to read as follows: (p) New business investment deferral. For taxable years beginning before January first, nineteen hundred eighty-eight, at the option of the taxpayer, there may be subtracted from federal adjusted gross income a reinvested amount of long-term capital gain realized in a taxable year from the sale of a capital asset, as such term is defined in section 1221 of the internal revenue code, which is not a new business invest- ment. A reinvested amount of long-term capital gain shall mean an amount which bears the same ratio to the long-term capital gain realized from the sale of a capital asset which was includable in New York adjusted gross income as that portion of the sale proceeds which is reinvested, within one year from date of sale, in a New York new business bears to the total sale proceeds. For the purposes of this subsection, a New York new business is a business enterprise which (1) has been a taxpayer under this article for no more than three taxable years (including short taxable years), (2) over fifty percent of the number of shares of stock that entitle the holders thereof to vote for the election of directors or trustees is not owned, directly or indirectly, by a taxpayer subject to tax under section one hundred eighty-three, one hundred eighty- four[,] OR one hundred eighty-five [or one hundred eighty-six of article nine] of this chapter, or under article nine-A, thirty-two or thirty- three of this chapter, (3) is not substantially similar in operation or ownership, directly or indirectly, to a business entity (or entities) taxable, or previously taxable, under such sections, such articles, A. 5326 11 [article twenty-three] or which would have been subject to [tax under article twenty-three (as such article was in effect on January first, nineteen hundred eighty) or] the income (or losses) of which is (or was) includable under THIS article [twenty-two] whereby the intent and purpose of this subsection would be evaded, (4) locates and employs at least ninety percent of its assets in the state, (5) employs principally in the state eighty percent of its employees (as ascertained within the meaning and intent of subparagraph three of paragraph (a) of subdivision three of section two hundred ten of this chapter and, in addition, in the case of a partnership, excluding partners), (6) derives less than forty percent of its gross income from dividends, interest, royalties (other than mineral, oil, or gas royalties or copyright royalties), and annuities and (7) reports at least twenty-five hundred dollars in gross income in any taxable year. The reinvested amount must qualify as a capital asset as defined in section 1221 of the internal revenue code and must be retained by the taxpayer for at least twelve months. The modification allowable under this subsection shall be utilized with respect to the taxable year in which the twelve month retention period ends. The commissioner [of taxation and finance] may require annual information reports on the investments in new businesses made pursuant to this subsection, and such other reports as he may require to ensure against the evasion of the intent and purposes of this subsection. S 38. Subsection (g) of section 697 of the tax law, as amended by chapter 267 of the laws of 1987, is amended to read as follows: (g) Cooperation with the cities of the state of New York. Notwith- standing the provisions of subsection (e) OF THIS SECTION, the tax commission may permit the proper city officer of any city of the state of New York imposing a personal income tax upon the incomes of resi- dents, or an unincorporated business income tax, or an earnings tax on nonresidents, or the authorized representative of any such officer, to inspect any return filed under this article, [or article twenty-three (as such article was in effect on or before December thirtieth, nineteen hundred eighty-two),] or may furnish to such officer or his authorized representative an abstract of any such return or supply him with infor- mation concerning an item contained in any such return, or disclosed by any investigation of tax liability under this article [or article twen- ty-three (as such article was in effect on or before December thirtieth, nineteen hundred eighty-two)], but such permission shall be granted or such information furnished to such officer or his representative only if the local laws of such city grant substantially similar privileges to the commission or officer of this state charged with the administration of the tax imposed by this article and such information is to be used for tax purposes only; and provided further the commissioner [of taxa- tion and finance] may furnish to such city officer or the legal repre- sentative of such city such returns filed under this article [or article twenty-three (as such article was in effect on or before December thir- tieth, nineteen hundred eighty-two)] and other tax information, as he may consider proper, for use in court actions or proceedings under such local law, whether civil or criminal, where a written request therefor has been made to the commissioner [of taxation and finance] by such city officer or his delegate, provided the local law of such city grants substantially similar powers to such city officer or his delegate. Where the commissioner [of taxation and finance] has so authorized use of returns and other information in such actions or proceedings, officers and employees of the department [of taxation and finance] may testify in A. 5326 12 such actions or proceedings in respect to such returns or other informa- tion. S 39. Section 1311 of the tax law, as amended by chapter 682 of the laws of 1976, is amended to read as follows: S 1311. Enforcement with other taxes.

(b) If the state tax commission takes action under such article twen- ty-two [or articles twenty-two and twenty-three] or under a local law enacted pursuant to the authority of article two-E of the general city law with respect to the enforcement and collection of the tax or taxes assessed under such articles the state tax commission shall, wherever possible, accompany such action with a similar action under similar enforcement and collection provisions of such city income tax. (c) Any moneys collected as a result of such joint action shall be deemed to have been collected in proportion to the amounts due, includ- ing tax, penalties, interest and additions to tax, under article twen- ty-two [or articles twenty-two and twenty-three] of this chapter and such city income tax. (d) Whenever the state tax commission takes any action with respect to a deficiency of income tax under article twenty-two [or articles twen- ty-two and twenty-three] of this chapter [or under a local law enacted pursuant to the authority of article two-E of the general city law], other than the action set forth in subdivision (a) of this section, it may in its discretion accompany such action with a similar action under such city income tax.
