Amount of deduction

For tax periods beginning on or after January 1, 2015, in order to mitigate the effects of the reduction in tax rates on the limitation on the deduction of amortizations corresponding to the years 2013 and 2014, section 1 of the thirty-seventh transitional provision of the LIS , established a new deduction on the full amount for taxpayers who pay taxes at the general corporate tax rate.
