Subsequent sessions looked to reinforce and apply these concepts in the context of the impact of tax consolidation in mergers and acquisitions transactions and on undertaking a tax due diligence. The day concluded with a case study highlighting how the gain or loss on sale calculation under the 'exit rules' apply in practice.
