(c) In the case of a return where a corporation understates its taxable net income or omits an amount properly includable in taxable net income or both, which <br>understatement or omission or both is in excess of twenty-five percent (25%) <br>of the amount of taxable net income stated in the return, the additional tax <br>may be assessed at any time within six (6) years after the return was filed. (d) In the case of an assessment of additional tax relating directly to adjustments resulting from a final determination of a federal audit, the additional tax may <br>be assessed before the expiration of the times provided in this subsection, or <br>six months from the date the department receives the final determination of <br>the federal audit from the taxpayer, whichever is later. (e) In the case of the assessment of additional tax resulting from a decrease of a net operating loss deduction or a capital loss deduction, resulting from the <br>carryback of a loss which occurs in a taxable year beginning after December <br>31, 1993, the additional tax may be assessed at any time before the expiration <br>of the times provided for in this subsection for assessing additional tax for the <br>taxable year which resulted in the net operating loss or capital loss carryback. The times provided in this subsection may be extended by agreement between the <br>taxpayer and the department. For the purposes of this subsection, a return filed <br>before the last day prescribed by law for filing the return shall be considered as filed <br>on the last day. For taxable years beginning after December 31, 1993, any extension <br>granted for filing the return shall also be considered as extending the last day <br>prescribed by law for filing the return. Page 2 of 2 (3) If any additional tax is assessed on account of any income which has been returned for taxation by any other taxpayer, the department, with the consent of the other <br>taxpayer, his personal representatives, or heirs, shall reduce the amount of the <br>additional tax assessed for each year by the amount of the income tax paid for that <br>year by the other taxpayer on account of the income in question. (4) Every taxpayer shall: (a) Notify the department in writing of every audit of the taxpayer's federal income tax return within thirty (30) days after the taxpayer has or should have <br>had knowledge of the beginning of the audit by the Internal Revenue Service, <br>and (b) Submit a copy of the final determination of the federal audit within thirty (30) days of the conclusion of the federal audit.
