Share premium taxation under Section 56(2)(viib): excess consideration over fair market value is taxable on closely held companies.
Taxability of share premium for a closely held company turns on whether consideration per share exceeds fair market value; if FMV exceeds consideration (FMV 42, consideration 40) no tax arises, whereas if consideration exceeds FMV (consideration 40, FMV 31) the excess per share (9) is taxable under the provision governing share premium receipts.
