Where shares in nationalised companies are included in the assets of a company, the capital gain or loss resulting from the compensation provided for in articles 4,15,16 and 32 of the Nationalisation Act n° 82-155 of 11 February 1982 is not taken into account in determining taxable income for the financial year in progress when it is realised. The securities received in exchange are recorded in the balance sheet at the same book value as the securities that gave rise to the right to compensation. When all or part of the new securities are sold or redeemed, they are deemed to have been acquired on the date on which the shares in the nationalised companies were acquired by the company, and the capital gain or loss is determined on the basis of the value that the shares in the nationalised companies had for tax purposes in the company’s accounts.
