General Statement The tax is imposed on the taxable gross receipts of an entity providing the retail sale of utility services for the taxable year. The tax is an income tax imposed at a rate of 1.4% on the taxable gross receipts described below. All entities are subject to the tax if taxable gross receipts exceed $1,000. Utility services are defined as providing: 1 The following receipts are exempt from the computation of the utility receipts tax: • Sales to the U.S. government; • Interstate sales to the extent the state is prohibited from taxing the gross receipts by the Constitution of  the United States; • Gross receipts from the sale of utility services between members of a controlled group of corporations or an affiliated group are exempt if the seller is the producer of the utility service and the purchaser is the end user, and the seller and purchaser exist at the same location or adjacent locations. The department recognizes the IRS’s application for automatic extension of time to file (Form 7004) or an electronic extension of time for filing the annual federal income tax return. If an extension applies, check box L on the front of the return. A separate copy of Form 7004 does not need to be filed with the department to request an Indiana extension. If an extension payment for Indiana is not due, do not submit a copy of the federal extension separately, but enclose it with the annual utility receipts tax return when filing. Returns received within 30 days after the last date indicated on an enclosed federal extension will be considered as received on time. If a federal extension is not needed, request an Indiana extension of time to file by writing to: Indiana Department of Revenue Corporate Income Tax Tax Administration P.O.

Corporate members of an affiliated group that are incorporated in Indiana or authorized to do business in Indiana may file a consolidated utility receipts tax return. An election to file a consolidated return must be made at the time that the group files its first return. If an election is made, the taxpayer must continue to file consolidated until the department allows the taxpayer to change the manner in which it files its utility receipts tax return. All affiliated groups filing consolidated income tax returns with the department must enclose Schedule 8-D, Schedule of Indiana Affiliated Group Members, which is available online at www. in.gov/dor/6525.htm.

If the taxpayer’s annual liability exceeds $20,000, the taxpayer is required to pay the estimated tax liability by electronic means.

If a payment is required to be submitted electronically and is not submitted electronically, you will be subject to a 10% penalty on the payments that were remitted by methods other than electronic payment.

Additional Information Utility Services Use Tax Since July 1, 2006, an excise tax known as the utility services use tax has been imposed on the retail consumption of utility services in Indiana at the rate of 1.4% where the utility receipts tax is not paid by the utility providing the service. An entity might be liable for this tax if utility services are purchased from outside Indiana (or anywhere if for resale) and the entity becomes the end user in Indiana of any part of the purchase. The person who consumes the utility service in Indiana 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 the entity’s behalf, the entity required to remit this tax on Form USU-103. For further assistance, contact the Indiana Department of Revenue, P.O. Box 7228, Indianapolis, IN 46207-7228, or call (317) 232-0129.
