Sec. 4.2. (a) This section applies to any refund for a property resulting from a real property tax assessment appeal for the property for an assessment date occurring after December 31, 2014. This section does not apply if any refund for a property under appeal has been paid before January 1, 2020. Except as modified by this section, all other provisions of IC 6-1.1 apply regarding the payment of refunds and application of credits.

(b) If, upon conclusion of a real property tax assessment appeal, the total amount of property taxes owed to the taxpayer as a result of the appeal is five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000) or more for the assessment dates under appeal, the auditor of the county in which the property is located may, instead of a refund, elect to apply credits in equal installments to future property tax installments for the property over a period of not more than:

# (1)

five (5) years following the date of the conclusion of the assessment appeal, if the total amount of property taxes owed to the taxpayer as a result of the appeal is:

# (A)

greater than or equal to five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000); and

# (B)

less than five million dollars ($5,000,000);

# (2)

seven (7) years following the date of the conclusion of the assessment appeal, if the total amount of property taxes owed to the taxpayer as a result of the appeal is:

# (A)

greater than or equal to five million dollars ($5,000,000); and

# (B)

less than ten million dollars ($10,000,000); or

# (3)

ten (10) years following the date of the conclusion of the assessment appeal, if the total amount of property taxes owed to the taxpayer as a result of the appeal is greater than or equal to ten million dollars ($10,000,000).
The auditor may elect to accelerate credits or to provide a full or partial refund within the period specified under subdivision (1), (2), or (3), as applicable.

(c) Notwithstanding subsection (b), if a claimant is no longer the taxpayer for the property on which the appeal was filed, the overpayment shall not be applied as a credit and the overpayment may be refunded in equal installments over the period specified in subsection (b)(1), (b)(2), or (b)(3), as applicable.
