B. Relevant statutes
The entries in the attached Table-related statutes are as follows.
C. Determination
1) Relevant legal principles
A) Even if one of the co-inheritors acquires the property exceeding his/her own share of inheritance as a result of an agreement on the inherited property by division among co-inheritors, the division of the inherited property is retroactively effective at the time of the commencement of inheritance, and thus, it shall be deemed that it was directly succeeded from the inheritee at the time of the commencement of inheritance (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decisions 92Da32463, Oct. 27, 1992; 2017Da265631, May 10, 2019).
B) According to Article 88 subparag. 1 of the former Income Tax Act (amended by Act No. 14389, Dec. 20, 2016), “transfer income tax” means the de facto transfer of an asset through sale, exchange, investment in kind in a corporation, etc., regardless of the registration or enrollment of the asset. Capital gains tax imposed on the transfer of the asset is imposed on the income accruing from the increase in the value of the asset belonging to the owner, and the opportunity to transfer the asset to another person is imposed on the income. In order to impose capital gains tax, there must be a transfer of the asset. The division of the original common property is legally deemed the exchange or sale of shares between the co-owners. However, in substance, the right, i.e., the right acquired by the division of common property, which is limited to the specific part acquired by the division, and its form is changed. Thus, it does not constitute a co-owned share transfer of 201 after the acquisition of the first co-owned share (see, e.g., Supreme Court Decision 2001Du394).
2) Specific determination
In this case, the Plaintiff solely inherited 1/2 shares out of 40 0,000 square meters of 30,000 square meters of 42,000 square meters prior to the division by agreement with other co-inheritors. The division of inherited property through consultation takes effect retrospectively at the time of commencement of inheritance, and even according to Article 98 of the former Income Tax Act and Article 162(1)5 of the Enforcement Decree of the same Act, “the date inheritance commences or the date of receipt of gift” is considered to be the time of acquisition as to the assets acquired through inheritance or donation. Thus, the Plaintiff cannot be deemed to have acquired the ownership of 1/2 from 30,000 square meters of 4,000 square meters of 4,000 square meters of 5,000 square meters of 30,000 square meters of 4,0000 square meters of 30,000 square meters of 4,000 square meters of 30,000 square meters of 97.
Therefore, when calculating gains from transfer from the transfer of the instant land, which was divided into 00 square meters of 19,772 square meters of forest land in ○○○ Dong, Masan, and 19,772 square meters, the acquisition time of the instant land should be deemed not on November 17, 201, but on August 22, 1970, the date of acquisition of the first common property, namely, the date of acquisition of the first common property, rather than on November 17, 201, the date of registration of ownership transfer under the judgment on partition of co-owned property in this case, based on the judgment on partition of co-owned property in this case.
Ultimately, the instant disposition is lawful, and the Defendant’s assertion on a different premise is without merit.
3. Conclusion
Therefore, the plaintiff's claim of this case is dismissed as it is without merit, and it is so decided as per Disposition.
