Sec. 53. (a) This subsection applies only to property that is the owner's primary personal residence. If:
(1) at least one (1) owner of a house, condominium, or apartment maintains the house, condominium, or apartment as the owner's primary personal residence;
(2) the owner rents or furnishes rooms, lodgings, or other accommodations in the house, condominium, or apartment for consideration for fewer than fifteen (15) days in a calendar year;
(3) none of the payments for the room, lodging, or other accommodation are made through a marketplace facilitator; and
(4) the rental or furnishing of the room, lodging, or other accommodation qualifies for the special rule for certain use under Section 280A(g) of the Internal Revenue Code;
the transaction involving the renting or furnishing of the rooms, lodgings, or other accommodations in the house, condominium, or apartment for consideration during the calendar year is exempt from the state gross retail tax.
(b) If an owner described in subsection (a) rents or furnishes rooms, lodgings, or other accommodations in a house, condominium, or apartment for consideration for more than fourteen (14) days in the current calendar year or in the preceding calendar year, the exemption under subsection (a) does not apply and the owner shall collect and remit any state gross retail tax imposed under IC 6-2.5-4-4, subject to the following conditions:
(1) If the rental or furnishing for more than fourteen (14) days occurred in the current calendar year, but not the preceding calendar year, then the tax collection must begin on the fifteenth day of rental or furnishing and each day thereafter in the current calendar year that the owner rents or furnishes rooms, lodgings, or other accommodations in the house, condominium, or apartment for consideration.
(2) If the rental or furnishing for more than fourteen (14) days occurred in the preceding calendar year, then the tax collection must begin on the first day of rental or furnishing and each day thereafter in the current calendar year that the owner rents or furnishes rooms, lodgings, or other accommodations in the house, condominium, or apartment for consideration.
