Accordingly, in case of the assets inherited or donated under the provision of this case, it shall be deemed that the value assessed by the inheritance tax or gift tax law as of the date of inheritance commencement or donation exceeds the scope of transfer value under Article 97 (5) of the Income Tax Act.
