252. For the purpose of determining the input tax refund of a registrant who is an individual or a partnership, where, in a taxation year of the registrant, the registrant acquires or brings into Québec a passenger vehicle or aircraft, in respect of which tax is payable by the registrant, for use as capital property not exclusively in commercial activities of the registrant, the registrant is deemed to have paid tax in respect of the acquisition or bringing into Québec of the vehicle or aircraft, that became payable on the last day of the last reporting period of the registrant beginning in that taxation year and in each subsequent taxation year, equal to the amount determined by the formula
For the purposes of this formula,(1) A is the tax fraction; and
(2) B is the part or amount, prescribed under the Taxation Act (chapter I-3), of the capital cost of the vehicle or aircraft that was deducted under that Act in computing the income of the registrant from those commercial activities for that or the subsequent taxation year, as the case may be.
This section ceases to apply in respect of a passenger vehicle if the registrant begins, at any time during a taxation year, to use the vehicle for any purpose which, by reason of paragraph 1 of section 206.1, would not entitle him to claim an input tax refund in respect of the vehicle if he acquired it at that time.
