280‑101 Liability to shortfall interest charge—minerals resource rent tax
(1) You are liable to pay *shortfall interest charge on an additional amount of *MRRT that you are liable to pay because the Commissioner amends your assessment for an *MRRT year. (2) The liability is for each day in the period: (a) beginning at the start of the day on which *MRRT under your first assessment for that *MRRT year was due to be paid, or would have been due to be paid if there had been any; and (b) ending at the end of the day before the day on which the Commissioner gave you notice of the amended assessment. (3) However, if an amended assessment reinstates all or part of a liability in relation to a particular that had been reduced by an earlier amended assessment, the period for the reinstated liability begins at the start of the day on which *MRRT under the earlier amended assessment was due to be paid, or would have been due to be paid if there had been any.
Note: See Division 50 of the Minerals Resource Rent Tax Act 2012 for when the amount of assessed MRRT and shortfall interest charge becomes due and payable. That Division also provides for general interest charge on any part of the additional amount (plus any shortfall interest charge) that remains unpaid after the additional amount is due and payable.
