Net Capital Loss Adjustment for FIT-20 Line 23 – Sample Worksheet
Enclose with the return the 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. See the worksheet on page 12.

Computation of Indiana Net Capital Loss for Carryforward 
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 12-31-2021:
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 A           Member B                Member C          Combined Indiana Total
                                            $6,000,000         $9,600,000              $8,400,000                   $24,000,000
Member’s ratio of Indiana receipts:                       25%                40%                  35%               100%
Prorated share of Indiana net capital loss:           -$10,000            -$16,000     -$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 – Gain Year Ending 12-31-2022:
4.  Net capital gain from federal Schedule D (recomputed without any IRC Section 1212 unused capital loss carryover) ............$50,000
5.  FIT-20 Indiana apportioned income percentage for the taxable year ..................................................................................................... 60%
6.  Available Indiana net capital gain for the year......................................................................................................................................$30,000

Example for members of a unitary group filing a combined return having a net capital gain in 2022: 
Indiana receipts attributable to:           Member A           Member B                Member C          Combined Indiana Total
                                            $5,000,000         $35,000,000             $10,000,000                  $50,000,000
Member’s ratio of Indiana receipts:                       10%                70%                  20%               100%
Prorated share of Indiana net capital loss:           -$3,000             -$21,000     -$6,000

Application of Indiana Net Capital Loss Adjustment 
Enter the unused net capital loss from loss year (prorated amounts) or remaining amount(s) of each member as reduced during each of 
the intervening years following the year of loss. The current year adjustment for Indiana is limited to the unused amount of net capital 
loss, up to the amount of the net capital gains prorated for each member. 

                                            Member A           Member B                Member C
