Sec. 2.4. (a) Beginning January 1, 2005, a member that, before January 1, 2005, has:
(1) paid an assessment; and
(2) not taken a credit against taxes;
under section 2.1 of this chapter (as in effect December 31, 2004) is not entitled to claim or carry forward the unused tax credit except as provided in this section.
(b) A member described in subsection (a) may, for each taxable year beginning after December 31, 2006, take a credit of not more than ten percent (10%) of the amount of the assessments paid before January 1, 2005, against which a tax credit has not been taken before January 1, 2005. A credit under this subsection may be taken against premium taxes, adjusted gross income taxes, or any combination of these, or similar taxes upon revenues or income of the member that may be imposed by the state, up to the amount of the taxes due for each taxable year.
(c) If the maximum amount of a tax credit determined under subsection (b) for a taxable year exceeds a member's liability for the taxes described in subsection (b), the member may carry the unused portion of the tax credit forward to subsequent taxable years. Tax credits carried forward under this subsection are not subject to the ten percent (10%) limit set forth in subsection (b).
(d) The total amount of credits taken by a member under this section in all taxable years may not exceed the total amount of assessments paid by the member before January 1, 2005, minus the total amount of tax credits taken by the member under section 2.1 of this chapter (as in effect December 31, 2004) before January 1, 2005.
