Shares: subscription and disposal

77 Section 76: supplementary
(1) In a case to which section 127 of TCGA 1992 (reorganisation etc treated as not involving disposal) applies (including a case where that section applies by virtue of an enactment relating to chargeable gains), shares included in the new holding are treated for the purposes of section 76 as acquired when the original shares were acquired.
(2) Any shares held or disposed of by a nominee or bare trustee for a company are treated for the purposes of section 76 as held or disposed of by that company.
(3) In this section “new holding” and “original shares” have the same meaning as in section 127 of TCGA 1992 (or, as the case may be, that section as applied by the enactment concerned).
