Abstract

This paper address the controversy regarding to the harmful effects that the fair value evaluation of assets and liabilities by entities can generate in the calculation of gift and inheritance tax (ITCMD), in the case of transmission of companies’ shares, considering that this method is based on estimates and presumptions, therefore, characterized by its subjectivity and uncertainty, and must not have an impact on the calculation basis of taxes, mainly because it is contrary to the contributory capacity principle. It will be seen that the Brazilian legislation of the income tax determines the neutralization of the effects of applying the fair value, a provision that must also be implemented by the legislation of São Paulo that regulates gift and inheritance tax (ITCMD).
