          tax on business corporations that are manufacturers
 
          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-

     1    Section 1. Section 208 of the tax law is amended  by  adding  two  new
     2  subdivisions 20 and 21 to read as follows:
     3    20.    The  term "manufacturer" shall mean a taxpayer which during the
     4  taxable year is principally engaged in the production of goods by  manu-
     5  facturing,  processing,  assembling, refining, mining, extracting, farm-
     6  ing, agriculture, horticulture, floriculture, viticulture or  commercial
     7  fishing.  Moreover,  for  purposes  of  computing  the capital base in a
     8  combined report, the group shall  be  considered  a  "manufacturer"  for

     9  purposes  of  this article only if the combined group during the taxable
    10  year is principally engaged in the activities set forth  in this  subdi-
    11  vision, or any combination thereof.
    12    21.    The  term  "principally  engaged" shall include a taxpayer or a
    13  combined group if, during the taxable year, more than fifty  percent  of
    14  the  gross receipts of the taxpayer or combined group, respectively, are
    15  derived from receipts from the sale of goods produced by  manufacturing.
    16  In  computing a combined group's gross receipts, intercorporate receipts
    17  shall be eliminated.
    18    § 2. Section 209 of the tax law is amended by adding a new subdivision
    19  11 to read as follows:
    20    11. (a) For any taxable year beginning on or after January first,  two

    21  thousand  twelve,  a taxpayer who is a manufacturer shall be exempt from
    22  fifty percent of all taxes imposed by this article.

     7  and all rules and regulations and take any other measures necessary  for
     8  the timely implementation of this act on its effective date on or before
