Where liability in respect of a debt obligation of a person or partnership is assumed by a borrower at any time,(a) the amount of interest payable on the debt obligation, determined without reference to section 175.1.2, by any person or partnership in respect of a period is, to the extent that that period is included in a taxation year of the borrower ending after 31 December 1991, deemed, for the purposes of subparagraph 1 of subparagraph ii of paragraph a of section 175.1.2, subparagraph i of paragraph b of that section and subparagraph b of the second paragraph of section 175.1.3, to be an amount of interest payable on the debt obligation by the borrower in respect of that year; and
(b) the application of sections 175.1.2 and 175.1.3 to the borrower in respect of the debt obligation after that time shall be determined on the assumption that section 175.1.2 applied to the borrower in respect of the debt obligation before that time.
For the purposes of this section, where the borrower came into existence at a particular time that is after the beginning of the particular period commencing at the beginning of the first period in respect of which interest was payable on the debt obligation by any person or partnership and ending at the particular time, the borrower is deemed to have been in existence throughout the particular period, and to have had, throughout the particular period, taxation years ending on the day of the year on which its first taxation year ended.
