A change in the tax status of an enterprise or its shareholders does not give rise to increases or decreases in the pre-tax amounts recognised directly in equity. Therefore, SIC 25 concludes that the current and deferred tax consequences of the change in tax status should be included in net profit or loss for the period. However, where a transaction or event does result in a direct credit or charge to equity, for example the revaluation of property, plant or equipment under IAS 16, the related tax consequence would still be recognised directly in equity.
