    [Saturday, September 3, 2016]

     Section 1111-A(d) of the Tax Reform Code of 1971 (act) (72 P.S. § 8111-A(d)) requires the Secretary of Revenue to publish the rate of the Public Utility Realty Tax Act (PURTA) surcharge in the form of a notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin by October 1, 2003, and by each October 1 thereafter. The tax rate established in section 1111-A(d) of the act shall be imposed upon gross receipts taxes as provided in section 1111-A(d) of the act for the period beginning the next January 1.

     The result of the PURTA surcharge calculation provided in section 1111-A of the act for the tax year beginning January 1, 2017, is zero mills. Therefore, no PURTA surcharge under section 1111-A(d) of the act will be imposed for the taxable period beginning January 1, 2017.
