Utility Services Use Tax
General Filing Requirements for FIT-20 Forms
and Schedules
Effective July 1, 2006, an excise tax known as the utility services
use tax is imposed on the retail consumption of utility services in
Indiana at the rate of 1.4 percent where the utility receipts tax is
not paid by the utility providing the service.
References to the Internal Revenue Code
You may be liable for this tax if you purchase utility services from
outside Indiana (or anywhere if for resale) and become the end
user in Indiana of any part of the purchase. The person who consumes the utility service is liable for the utility services use tax
based on the price of the purchase. Unless the seller of the utility
service is registered with the Department to collect the utility
services use tax on your behalf, you are required to remit this tax
on Form USU-103. For more information, refer to Commissioner’s
Directive #32, available at www.in.gov/dor/3617.htm
Copies of pages 1 through 4 of the corporation’s federal income tax return must be enclosed with Form FIT-20 along
with Schedule M-3 and the extension of time to file form. This
requirement is made under the authority of Indiana Code (IC)
6-5.5-6-5.
Public Law (PL) 131-2008, SEC. 12 updates references to the
Internal Revenue Code (IRC) in certain Indiana tax statutes. For
tax year 2008, any reference to the Internal Revenue Code and
subsequent regulations means the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended and in effect on Jan. 1, 2008.
Apportionment of Adjusted Gross Income
For a complete summary of new legislation regarding taxation,
please see 2008 Summary of State Legislation Affecting the
Department of Revenue at www.in.gov/dor/3656.htm
Resident financial institutions are treated the same as nonresident financial institutions for the purposes of the financial
institution tax by providing that the tax is imposed on the apportioned Indiana income of financial institutions.
Who Must File Form FIT-20
IC 6-5.5-2-1 imposes an 8.5 percent financial institution tax on
the adjusted gross income of any corporation transacting the
business of a financial institution, including a holding company,
a regulated financial corporation, a subsidiary of a holding company or regulated financial corporation, or any other corporation
carrying on the business of a financial institution. Any taxpayer
who is subject to tax under IC 6-5.5 is exempt from Indiana’s
adjusted gross income tax.
The law employs a single-factor receipts formula to determine
the percentage of the taxpayer’s income subject to the tax. The
single-factor formula is derived by dividing the gross receipts attributable to transacting business in Indiana by the total receipts
from transacting business in all taxing jurisdictions.
Nexus Rules
A resident taxpayer is a taxpayer who is commercially domiciled in
Indiana and transacts the business of a financial institution in Indiana.
A nonresident taxpayer is a taxpayer who is not commercially
domiciled in Indiana but transacts the business of a financial
institution in this state.
The law is based on the ability of a corporation under modern
technology to transact the business of a financial institution in
Indiana, regardless of the principal location of its offices and
employees.
A taxpayer is transacting business in Indiana for purposes of the
franchise tax when it satisfies any of the following eight tests:
(1) Maintains an office in Indiana;
(2) Has an employee, a representative, or an independent
contractor conducting business in Indiana;
(3) Regularly sells products or services of any kind or nature
to customers in Indiana who receive the product or ser-
vice in Indiana;
(4) Regularly solicits business from potential customers in
Indiana;
(5) Regularly performs services outside Indiana that are
consumed within Indiana;
The financial institution tax extends to both resident and nonresident financial institutions and to all other corporate entities when
80 percent or more of its gross income is derived from activities
that constitute the business of a financial institution. The business of a financial institution is defined as activities authorized by
the federal reserve board; the making, acquiring, selling, or servicing of loans or extensions of credit; acting as an agent, a broker, or
an advisor in connection with leasing real and personal property
that is the economic equivalent of an extension of credits; or operating a credit card, debit card, or charge card business.

(6) Regularly engages in transactions with customers in
Indiana involving intangible property, including loans, but
not property described in IC 6-5.5-3-8(5), and resulting in
receipts flowing to the taxpayer from within Indiana;
(7) Owns or leases tangible personal or real property located
in Indiana; or
(8) Regularly solicits and receives deposits from customers in
Indiana.
(d) An interest in the right to service or collect
income from a loan or other asset where interest
on the loan is attributed as a loan described above
and the payment obligations were solicited and
entered into by a person who is independent and
not acting on behalf of the owner.
(e) An amount held in an escrow or trust account
with respect to the property described previously.
(6) Acting
“Regularly,” for purposes of the previously listed tests, is defined
as assets attributable in Indiana equal to at least $5 million or 20
or more Indiana customers.
(a) As an executor of an estate;
(b) As a trustee of a benefit plan;
(c) As a trustee of an employee’s pension, profit
sharing, or other retirement plan;
(d) As a trustee of a testamentary or inter vivos trust
or corporate indenture; or
(e) In any other fiduciary capacity, including holding
title to real property in Indiana.
Exempt Entities
Four specific types of organizations are exempted from the franchise tax: insurance companies, international banking facilities,
S corporations exempt from income tax under IRC Section 1363,
and nonprofit corporations (with the exception of state chartered
credit unions). Federal law prohibits state taxation of federally
chartered credit unions.
Method of Reporting
A taxpayer is allowed to file a separate return only in those
instances where the taxpayer is not a member of a unitary group.
Members of a unitary group must file collectively on one combined
return. No provision is made for filing consolidated returns.
Exempt Transactions
A taxpayer is not considered to be transacting business in
Indiana if the ONLY activities of the taxpayer in Indiana are in
connection with any of the following:
If the taxpayer is a member of a group, combined reporting is
mandatory. However, if the taxpayer determines that its Indiana
income is not accurately reflected by the filing of a combined
return, the taxpayer can petition the Department by indicating
on its annual return that the return is a separate return made by
a member of a unitary group. Such petition is subject to approval
by the Department. The petition must include the name and
federal identification number of each member of the group petitioning for an alternative method. Each member must include its
justification for the alternative method.
(1) Maintaining or defending an action or a suit;
(2) Filing, modifying, renewing, extending, or transferring a
mortgage, deed of trust, or security interest;
(3) Acquiring, foreclosing, or otherwise conveying property
in Indiana as a result of a default under the terms of a
mortgage, deed of trust, or security interest relating to the
property;
(4) Selling tangible personal property, if taxation under this
law is precluded because of federal law relating to inter-
state commerce;
(5) Owning an interest in the following types of property even
though activities are conducted in Indiana that are reason-
ably required to evaluate and complete the acquisition or
disposition of the property, the servicing of the property,
or the income from the property, or the acquisition or
liquidation of collateral relating to the property:
(a) An interest in a real estate mortgage investment
conduit, a real estate investment trust, or a regu-
lated investment company.
(b) An interest in a loan-backed security represent-
ing ownership or participation in a pool of prom-
issory notes or certificates of interest providing
for payments in relation to payments or reason able projections of payments on the notes or cer
tificates.
(c) An interest in a loan or other asset where the
interest is attributed to a consumer loan, com mercial loan, or secured commercial loan and
where the payment obligations were solicited and
entered into by a person who is independent and
not acting on behalf of the owner.
Petitions can also be sent to:
Indiana Department of Revenue
Tax Policy Division
100 N. Senate Ave.
Room N248
Indianapolis, IN 46204
Members of a Unitary Group
The combined return shall include the adjusted gross income of
all members of the unitary group that are transacting business
wholly or partially within Indiana. The statute provides exclusion
for the income of corporations or other entities organized in foreign countries, except a federal or state branch of a foreign bank
or its subsidiary that transacts business in Indiana.
“Unitary business” means business activities or operations that
are of mutual benefit, dependent upon or contributory to one
another, individually or as a group, in transacting the business of a financial institution. The term can be applied within a
single entity or between multiple entities and without regard to
whether each entity is a corporation, partnership, or trust. Unity
is presumed if there is unity of ownership, operation, or use as
evidenced by centralized purchasing, advertising, accounting, or
other controlled interaction among entities that are members of
the unitary group as defined in IC 6-5.5-1-18(a).

Extensions for Filing
Unity of ownership exists for a corporation if it is a member of a
group of two or more business entities, 50 percent of whose voting stock is owned by a common owner or owners or by one or
more of the member corporations of the group.
The Department accepts the federal extension of time application
(Form 7004) or the federal electronic extension. If you have one,
you do not need to contact the Department prior to filing your
annual return. Returns postmarked within 30 days after the last
date indicated on the federal extension will be considered timely
filed. If you do not need a federal extension of time but need one
for filing your state return, submit a letter requesting such an
extension to the Department prior to the due date of your annual
return.
The taxpayer designated as the reporting member of a unitary
group shall file a combined return that includes all operations of
the unitary business. List members included in the combined
return by completing FIT-20 Schedule H on page 4 of the
return. See page 17, Instructions for Filing a Combined Return.
Partnerships
To request an Indiana extension of time to file, contact the
Indiana Department of Revenue, Data Control Business Tax,
Returns Processing Center, 100 N. Senate Ave., Indianapolis,
IN 46204-2253.
Partnerships and trusts as entities are not subject to the franchise
tax. However, partnerships and trusts having corporate partners
or corporate grantors and beneficiaries where the entity is conducting the business of a financial institution are required to file
a partnership return, Form IT-65.
If you have a valid extension of time or a federal electronic extension to file. you must check box V-1 on front of the return. If
applicable, enclose a copy of the federal extension of time with
the return when filing your state return.
The following guidelines should be considered when preparing an informational return for a financial institution that is a
partnership:
(1) If the entity is a partnership and has nonresident corpo rate partners, the partnership is required to withhold and
remit the nonresident corporation’s tax liability on its ap portioned income if the nonresident corporation is not
otherwise a taxpayer for purposes of the tax. The appor tioned income attributable to the partner is the same
percentage as its distributive share. If the corporate part-
ner is otherwise subject to the franchise tax, the corporate
partner is responsible for the tax in accordance with its
percentage share of the partnership’s adjusted gross in-
come or apportioned income.
(2) If a resident corporate partner is not otherwise subject to
the tax, the corporate partner must pay the tax liability at-
tributable to its partnership income. The income attrib-
uted to the corporate partner’s share that has been subject
to the franchise tax would not be included in the income
calculation for purposes of the Indiana adjusted gross
income tax.
(3) If a corporation is a financial institution that is also a part-
ner in a partnership and the partnership is transacting
the business of a financial institution in Indiana, the part-
ner is a taxpayer for purposes of the financial institution
franchise tax.
An extension of time granted under IC 6-8.1-6-1 waives the late
payment penalty for the extension period on the balance of tax
due provided 90 percent of the current year’s total tax liability
is paid on or prior to the original due date. Form FT-QP should
be used to make an extension payment for your taxable year.
This payment will be processed as a “fifth” estimated payment.
Use the preprinted extension form included with your previous
estimated coupon packet or the blank FT-EXT form at the end of
the booklet.
Example: A bank in Maine is a partner with a bank in Indiana to
make loans to Indiana borrowers. The only activity of the Maine
bank is its involvement in the partnership. The partnership is
required to withhold the Maine bank’s share of the financial
institution tax.
To amend a previously filed Form FIT-20, you must file a corrected copy of the original form. Check box A1 at the top of the
form if you are filing an amended return. To claim a refund of an
overpayment, file the return within three years from the latter of
the date of overpayment or the due date of the return.
Note: Any tax paid after the original due date must include interest. Interest on the balance of tax due must be included with the
return when it is filed. Interest is computed from the original
due date until the date of payment. In October of each year, the
Department establishes the interest rate for the next calendar
year. See Departmental Notice #3 at www.in.gov/dor/3618.htm
for interest rates.
Amended Returns
IC 6-5.5-6-6 requires a taxpayer to notify the Department within
120 days of alterations or modifications to its federal income tax
return (federal adjustment, RAR, etc.) as finally determined, by
amended Form FIT-20.
United States Government Obligations
IC 6-8.1-9-1 entitles a taxpayer to claim a refund because of a reduction in tax liability resulting from a federal modification. The
claim for refund should be filed within six months from the date
of modification by the Internal Revenue Service. If an agreement
to extend the statute of limitations for an assessment is entered
into between the taxpayer and the Department, the period for
filing a claim for refund is likewise extended.
Although interest earned on United States obligations is not
subject to income taxation, it is not preempted by federal law
from being included in the tax base of a franchise tax. Therefore,
interest from United States obligations is not to be subtracted
from federal taxable income in determining the tax base of the
franchise tax.

Estimated Quarterly Payments
at least 20 percent of the final financial institution tax liability for
the current taxable year or 25 percent of the corporation’s final
financial institution tax liability for the previous tax year.
Quarterly payments of estimated financial institution tax are required under IC 6-5.5-6-3. The quarterly due dates for estimated
quarterly payments of a calendar year filer are April 20, June 20,
Sept. 20, and Dec. 20 of the taxable year.
The penalty for the underpayment of estimated tax is assessed on
the difference between the actual amount paid by the corporation
for each quarter and 20 percent of the final liability for the current year or 25 percent of the corporation’s final tax liability for
the previous tax year, whichever is less. Refer to Schedule
FIT-2220, Underpayment of Estimated Tax by Financial Institutions, on return page 4 of Form FIT-20.
If a taxpayer uses a taxable year that does not end on Dec. 31, the
due dates for filing the estimated quarterly financial institution
tax return and paying the tax are on or before the 20th day of the
fourth, sixth, ninth, and twelfth months of the taxpayer’s taxable
year. The payments must be made with the financial institution
estimated quarterly vouchers, Form FT-QP. The Department
mails preprinted FT-QP vouchers to current FIT estimated
account holders. A copy of a blank estimated quarterly voucher,
Form FT-ES, is located at the back of this publication.
Instructions for Completing Form FIT-20
Filing Period and Identification
File a 2008 Form FIT-20 return for a taxable year ending Dec.
31, 2008, a short tax year beginning in 2008 and ending in 2008,
or a fiscal tax year beginning in 2008 and ending in 2009. For a
short or fiscal tax year, fill in at the top of the form the beginning
month and day and the ending date of the taxable year.
If the annual tax liability is less than $2,500, estimated payments
are not required to be made. The previous threshold in effect was
$1,000 through Dec. 15, 2007.
Electronic Funds Transfer Requirements
A taxpayer’s quarterly estimated tax must be remitted by electronic funds transfer (EFT) if the amount of financial institution
tax exceeds an average liability of $5,000 per quarter (or $20,000
annually), effective Jan. 1, 2008. Previously, the threshold in
effect was $10,000 per quarter through Dec. 15, 2007. If the Department is unable to obtain payment on the EFT, a penalty of
10 percent of either the unpaid tax or the EFT, whichever is less,
will be assessed. Because there is no minimum amount of payment, the Department encourages all taxpayers not required to
remit by EFT to participate voluntarily in our EFT program.
Please use the correct legal name of the corporation and its present mailing address. For a name change, check box B-1 at the top
of the return. Enclose with the return copies of amended Articles
of Incorporation or an Amended Certificate of Authority filed
with the Indiana Secretary of State. The federal identification
number shown in the box must be correct.
Note: Taxpayers remitting by EFT should not file quarterly
FT-QP coupons. The amounts are reconciled when filing the
annual income tax return.
Enter your principal business activity code, derived from the
North American Industry Classification System (NAICS), in the
designated block of the return. Use the six-digit activity code
as reported on the federal corporation return. A link to a list of
these codes is available through the Department’s Internet address: www.in.gov/dor/3742.htm
List the Indiana county of your primary business location within
the state. Enter “O.O.S.” (out- of-state) in the county box for addresses outside Indiana.
If the Department notifies a corporation of the requirement to
remit by EFT, the corporation must do the following:
Questions L through W of the FIT-20 must be completed for the
return to be accepted by the Department. Check or complete all
boxes that apply for your return.
(1) Complete and submit the EFT Authorization Agreement
(Form EFT-1); and
(2) Begin remitting tax payments via EFT by the date/tax
period specified by the Department.
Check box S-1 if you are filing an initial return for the state of Indiana.
Failure to comply will result in a 10 percent penalty on each
quarterly estimated tax payment not sent by EFT. Indiana Code
does not require the extension of time to file payment or final
payment due with the annual tax return to be made by EFT. Be
sure to claim any EFT payment as an extension or estimated
payment credit. Do not file a return indicating an amount due
if you have paid, or will pay, any remaining balance by EFT. If a
corporation determines that it meets the requirements to remit
by EFT or has any questions, it should contact the EFT
Section at (317) 232-5500.
Is this filing your final return for the state of Indiana? Check box
S-2 only if the corporation is dissolved, is liquidated, or withdrew
from the state. Also, you must timely file Form BC-100 to close
out any sales and withholding accounts.
Go to www.in.gov/dor/3508.htm to complete this form online.
Check this box S-3 if the corporation is in bankruptcy.
Check box S-4 if you are filing as a real estate investment conduit
(REMIC). Note: The return for a REMIC is due on the15th day of
the fifth month following the close of the taxpayer’s tax year.
Penalty for Underpayment of Estimated
Taxes (IC 6-5.5-7-1)
Check box V-1 if an extension of time to file your return is in
effect. If applicable, enclose a copy of federal Form 7004 when
filing your state return.
Corporations estimating their financial institution tax liability are
subject to a 10 percent underpayment penalty if they fail to file
estimated tax payments or fail to remit a sufficient amount. To
avoid the penalty, the required quarterly estimate should include

Net Capital Loss Adjustment for FIT-20 Line 22 - Sample Worksheet
Attach to your return your worksheet that shows the following calculations. Use this format to determine the available amount of an Indiana net
capital loss and the remainder to carry forward. Add sheets to include all members of a unitary group.
Computation of Indiana Net Capital Loss for Carry Forward
For a taxpayer who is not filing a combined return, the taxpayer’s taxable income consists of an adjustment for net capital losses computed
under the Internal Revenue Code and derived from Indiana. Capital losses and capital gains derived from Indiana are determined by the
apportionment percentage applicable to each taxable year.
Example
Loss Year Ending: 12-31-2007
1. Net capital loss from federal Schedule D without IRC Section 1212 carryover ................................................................................ ($80,000)
2. FIT-20 Indiana apportioned income percentage for the taxable year of the capital loss .................................................................
50%
3. Indiana net capital loss for carry forward (limited to succeeding five years) .................................................................................... ($40,000)
Additional provisions required for a combined return: Any net capital loss or net operating loss attributable to Indiana in the combined return
must be prorated between each member of the unitary group having nexus in Indiana. Each member must calculate its share of the capital
loss and amount available to be applied for the combined return.
The net capital loss attributable to Indiana in the combined return is prorated between each taxpayer member of the unitary group
by the quotient of:
(a) the Indiana receipts of those taxpayer members attributable to Indiana, divided by:
(b) the total receipts of all taxpayer members to Indiana
Example
Indiana receipts attributable to:
Member’s ratio of Indiana receipts:
Prorated share of Indiana net capital loss:
Member A
$6,000,000
25%
($10,000)
Member B
$9,600,000

Member C
Combined Indiana total
$8,400,000
$24,000,000
35%
100%
($14,000)
Carry forward these amounts separately on the combined return.
Use this portion of the worksheet as many times as needed to determine the deductible net capital loss applied against any Indiana net capital
gains during the five year carryforward period following the year of a loss.
Computation of Net Capital Loss Adjustment
The net capital loss available to be applied, if any, and carried forward to any subsequent year shall be limited to the capital gains for the
subsequent year of each taxpayer member. The amount of net capital gains is determined by the same receipts formula used in computing the
amount of loss derived from Indiana and is prorated between members of a unitary group (IC 6-5.5-2-1).
Example
Loss Year Ending: 12-31-2008
4. Net capital loss from federal Schedule D (recomputed without any IRC Section 1212 unused capital loss carryover) ......................
5. FIT-20 Indiana apportioned income percentage for the taxable year .......................................................................................................
