(1) the number of net gallons of diesel fuel received by the supplier or permissive supplier during the month, sorted by product code, seller, point of origin, destination state, carrier, and receipt date;
(2) the number of net gallons of diesel fuel removed at a terminal rack during the month from the account of the supplier, sorted by product code, person receiving the diesel fuel, terminal code, and carrier;
(3) the number of net gallons of diesel fuel removed during the month for export, sorted by product code, person receiving the diesel fuel, terminal code, destination state, and carrier;
(4) the number of net gallons of diesel fuel removed during the month from a terminal located in another state for conveyance to this state, as indicated on the shipping document for the diesel fuel, sorted by product code, person receiving the diesel fuel, terminal code, and carrier;
(5) the number of net gallons of diesel fuel the supplier or permissive supplier sold during the month in transactions exempt under Section 162.204, sorted by product code, carrier, purchaser, and terminal code;
(6) the number of net gallons of diesel fuel sold in the bulk transfer/terminal system in this state to any person not holding a supplier's or permissive supplier's license; and
(7) any other information required by the comptroller.
(b) A supplier or permissive supplier that timely pays the tax to this state may deduct from the amount of tax due a collection allowance equal to two percent of the amount of tax payable to this state.
(c) A supplier or permissive supplier may take a credit for any taxes that were not remitted in a previous period to the supplier or permissive supplier by a licensed distributor or licensed importer as required by Section 162.214. The supplier or permissive supplier is eligible to take this credit if the comptroller is notified of the default within 15 days after the default occurs. If a license holder pays to a supplier or permissive supplier the tax owed, but the payment occurs after the supplier or permissive supplier has taken a credit on its return, the supplier or permissive supplier shall remit the payment to the comptroller with the next monthly return after receipt of the tax, plus a penalty of 10 percent of the amount of unpaid taxes and interest at the rate provided by Section 111.060 beginning on the date the credit is taken.
