The ruling concludes that if the assets of an IDGT are not included in the grantors gross estate upon his or her death, those assets do not get a basis step-up. An IDGT is typically used to transfer income-producing and highly appreciating assets out of an estate.
One of the features of an irrevocable trust that qualifies it as an IDGT is the ability of the grantor to swap assets held inside the trust with assets of equal value owned by the grantor.
IDGT Beneficiaries An IDGT is generally created to pass assets to children or grandchildren. You choose the beneficiaries of the trust, who then receive the trust assets after you pass.
Revenue Ruling 2023-2 has confirmed the position of the IRS that completed gifts to grantor trusts are not eligible for a basis step-up under Section 1014 of the Code upon the death of the grantor. We must remember that Revenue Rulings are not law and are not binding in Federal or Tax court.
Normally, the trust itself or the beneficiaries must pay taxes on the trusts income. However, a defective trust allows the trust maker to pay these bills for the benefit of all parties. The trust maker can often transfer the assets to the trust in exchange for a promissory note that bears interest.

When a grantor is considered an owner of the trust for income tax purposes but has relinquished rights to the assets in the trust in a way that allows the grantor to not be considered the owner of the assets for estate tax purposes, this is called an Intentionally Defective Grantor Trust.
A Beneficiary Defective Inheritors Trust (BDIT) is an irrevocable trust settled by a third party that grants the taxpayer both control and beneficial enjoyment of the Trust property.
For example: Mom and Dad create an IDGT into which they wish to transfer $500,000 worth of stock. They can either gift the stock or sell it. If they sell it to the IDGT, they need to convey enough cash into the trust to cover its down payment to them. They enter into an agreement for a monthly amount.
