79-32,210. Kansas income tax credit for property tax paid by telecommunication companies which are corporations. (a) For all taxable years commencing after December 31, 2000, and with respect to property initially acquired and first placed into service in this state on and after January 1, 2001, there shall be allowed as a credit against the tax liability imposed by the Kansas income tax act of a telecommunications company, as defined in K.S.A. 79-3271, and amendments thereto, an amount equal to the difference between the property tax levied for property tax year 2001, and all such years thereafter, and actually and timely paid during the appropriate income taxable year upon property assessed at the 33% assessment rate and the property tax which would be levied and paid on such property if assessed at a 25% assessment rate. (b) If the amount of the tax credit determined under subsection (a) exceeds the tax liability for the telecommunications company for any taxable year, the amount thereof which exceeds such tax liability shall be refunded to the telecommunications company. If the telecommunications company is a corporation having an election in effect under subchapter S of the federal internal revenue code, a partnership or a limited liability company, the credit provided by this section shall be claimed by the shareholders of such corporation, the partners of such partnership or the members of such limited liability company in the same manner as such shareholders, partners or members account for their proportionate shares of income or loss of the corporation, partnership or limited liability company. (c) As used in this section, the term "acquired" shall not include the transfer of property pursuant to an exchange for stock securities, or the transfer of assets of one business entity to another due to a merger or other consolidation. (d) For tax year 2013 and all tax years thereafter, the income tax credit provided by this section shall only be available to taxpayers subject to the income tax on corporations imposed pursuant to subsection (c) of K.S.A. 79-32,110, and amendments thereto, and shall be applied only against such taxpayer's corporate income tax liability.
