Income tax: tax consequences of investing in Westpac 'SWM' Series Self-Funding Instalments 2004 Product Disclosure Statement - cash applicants and on-market purchasers

Product Ruling PR 2005/76 sets out the Commissioner's view on the income tax consequences for entities participating in the Westpac SWM Series Self Funding Instalments 2004 Product Disclosure Statement for cash applicants and on-market purchasers.

From 1 July 2007, the recently enacted Division 247 of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 applies a different methodology for calculating the cost of capital protection for entities in the Westpac SWM Series Self Funding Instalments. PR 2005/76 therefore has no application to entities entering into the Westpac SWM Series Self Funding Instalments on or after 1 July 2007.
