404.3. No person is entitled to the rebate of an amount, other than under any of sections 357.2 to 357.5, 357.5.1 and 357.5.2, to the extent that it can reasonably be regarded that the amount is in respect of tax under section 16 or, in relation to corporeal property from outside Canada, section 17 that became payable by the person at a time when the person was a selected listed financial institution, or that was paid by the person at that time without having become payable, in respect of a property or a service acquired or brought into Québec by the person for consumption, use or supply in the course of a business or an adventure or concern in the nature of trade.
The first paragraph does not apply in relation to an amount of tax that became payable by an insurer or that was paid by the insurer without having become payable in respect of a property or a service acquired or brought into Québec exclusively and directly for consumption, use or supply in the course of investigating, settling or objecting to a claim based on an insurance policy that is not in the nature of accident and sickness or life insurance.
The first paragraph does not apply in relation to an amount of tax that became payable by a surety (within the meaning of the first paragraph of section 301.4) or that was paid by the surety without having become payable in respect of a property or a service acquired or brought into Québec(1) exclusively and directly for consumption, use or supply in the course of carrying on, or engaging another person to carry on, the construction of an immovable in Québec that is undertaken in full or partial satisfaction of the surety’s obligations under a performance bond; and
(2) otherwise than for use as capital property of the surety or in improving capital property of the surety.
Despite the first paragraph, a selected listed financial institution that is a provincial stratified investment plan is entitled to the rebate of an amount in accordance with section 402.23 to the extent that it is in relation to an amount of tax that became payable by the financial institution, or that was paid by the financial institution without having become payable, in respect of a supply that is acquired in whole or in part for consumption, use or supply in the course of activities relating to a provincial series of the financial institution.
