In accordance with article 67 e) of the LIS , the negative tax bases of any entity pending compensation at the time of its integration into the tax group may be offset in the tax base of this, with the limit of 70 percent of the individual tax base of the entity itself, taking into account the eliminations and incorporations that correspond to said entity.

For tax periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016, the fifteenth Additional Provision of the LIS establishes that taxpayers whose net turnover is at least 20 million euros during the 12 months prior to the date on which the tax period begins, they will replace the limit established in letters d) and e) of article 67 of the LIS with the following:

Therefore, for tax periods that begin on or after January 1, 2017, taxpayers to whom the fifteenth Additional Provision of the LIS does not apply must apply the 70 percent limit established in article 67. e) of said Law.

The result will determine the tax base before the compensation of negative tax bases in box [00550], and from there the self-assessment of the positive net amount will be completed, that is, box [00592] on page 14 of form 200. , always respecting the group's criteria.
