A person is a "related entity" to a taxpayer if that person and the taxpayer are permitted or required by the California Franchise Tax Board under Section 25102 et seq. of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, or any successor, to have their income reflected on the same combined report. For purposes of this Article, if two or more persons derive gross receipts solely from sources within California, and their business activities are such that, if conducted both within and outside California, a combined report would be required under the California Revenue and Taxation Code, or any successor, then those persons are related entities regardless of whether they file a combined report under the California Revenue and Taxation Code, or successor.
