Résumé Omnilex

The taxpayer had paid a special AVS contribution on a capital gain realized in 1989 and wanted to deduct that amount from the ordinary cantonal income tax due for 1993. The court held that the contribution, imposed under the special AVS rules, was not deductible in the later ordinary income tax assessment. The appeal was dismissed.

Regeste Omnilex

RAVS art. 23bis; special AVS contribution on a capital gain and deductibility in ordinary cantonal income tax: a contribution levied under the special AVS regime on a capital gain realized in an earlier period is not deductible from the taxpayer’s later ordinary cantonal income tax on income. The temporal and substantive separation between the special contribution and the ordinary tax assessment precludes a deduction merely because the contribution was actually paid. The decisive point is the allocation of the contribution to the special income item, not its subsequent economic burden in the ordinary tax period.
