§ 58.1-3510.01. Separate classification of merchants' capital of pharmaceutical wholesalers.

Merchants' capital reported as inventory of pharmaceutical wholesalers shall constitute a classification for local taxation separate from other classifications of merchants' capital as defined in § 58.1-3510.

The rates of tax and the rates of assessment shall not exceed that applicable generally to merchants' capital.
