‑1 What this Division is about
A company that issues non‑share equity interests will have a notional account called a non‑share capital account. This account records contributions to the company in relation to those non‑share equity interests and returns made by the company of those contributions. A non‑share distribution that represents a return of contributions is not taxed as a dividend (subject to the anti‑avoidance provisions dealing with dividend substitution). In certain circumstances a company may use its share capital account as the source for such distributions.
