54:10A-14 Director may require taxpayer to submit information.

(a) The director may by regulation or by special notice require any taxpayer to submit copies or pertinent extracts of its federal income tax returns, or of any other tax return filed with any agency of the federal government, or of this or any other state, or of any statement or registration made pursuant to any state or federal law pertaining to securities or securities exchange regulation.

(b) The director may require all taxpayers to keep such records as the director may prescribe, and the director may require the production of books, papers, documents and other data, to provide or secure information pertinent to the determination of the tax hereunder and the enforcement and collection thereof. The director may, also, by general rule or by special notice require any taxpayer to make and file information returns, under oath, of facts pertinent to the determination of the tax or liability for tax hereunder, pursuant to such regulations, at such times and in such form and manner and to such extent as the director may prescribe pursuant to law.

(c) Each taxpayer filing a return that is a member of a commonly owned group or a combined group shall, upon the request of the director and 90 days' notice thereof, disclose in its return for the privilege period the amount of all inter-member costs or expenses, including but not limited to management fees, rents, and other services, for the privilege period. If the taxpayer acquires products or services from another member of its commonly owned group or a combined group, which it re-sells or otherwise uses to generate revenue, the taxpayer shall, upon the request of the director and 90 days' notice thereof, disclose the amount of revenue generated from those products or services. The director shall promulgate rules and procedures for the manner of disclosure. A failure to file such a disclosure shall be deemed the filing of an incomplete tax return, subject to the penalties of the State Uniform Tax Procedure Law, R.S.54:48-1 et seq.
