The net increase in the capital of an open-ended company, recorded at the end of a financial year, is recorded free of charge; the words “free of charge” are entered in the minutes of the general meeting of shareholders which rules on the results for that financial year.
The repurchase by an open-ended investment company with a preponderance of real estate capital of its own shares is subject to registration duty at the rate set in 2° of I of Article 726 when the holder of the shares is in one of the cases mentioned in a and b of Article 730 quinquies. However, this registration duty does not apply when the holder requesting the redemption of its units is itself an undertaking for collective real estate investment.
