IR the case of activities conducted outside of a definite place of business, the gross receipts shall be attributed to.the definite place of business from which such activities are initiated, directed, or controlled. The situs of gross receipts for different classifications of business shall be attributed to one or more definite places of business a~ follows: (1) Thc ~ross receipts of a contracto~ chall be attributed to the definit~ place of business where his cervices are performed! or if h~c cervices ar~ nut ~¢rform~d at any definite place of business, then the definite place of business from which his services are directed or controlled, unless the contractor ic subject to th~ previsions of ~S.1-3715 of the Code cf Virginia; (2) The grosc receipts of a retail merchant or whole~al~ merchant shall bs attributed to the definite place of b~sinese at which sales solicitation activities occur, or if sales solicitation aetivitles dc no~ occur at any definite place of buoines$~ then the definite plac~ of business from which ~al~ solicitation activities ars directed er e0~trolled; however, a whelesale me.chant or distribution house subject to a license tax meacured by purchases ~hall determine t~e situs of its ~urchases by the definite place cf business at which or from which ~etiverles cf the purchased goods, wares and merchandise license tax in two or more localitiec aed who is subject to multiple taxation because the lceati%£ee uss differen~ measurec~ mcy apply to the Department of Taxation for a d~termination as to th~ prope~ measure of purchases and gross reoei~tc ~ubject to license tax in each loaality. (3) Thc grs~e receipts of a business ~enting tangible personal property shall be attributed to the definite place of buslnesc from which ~he tangible personal p~cperty is rented mr, if the property i~ not ren~ed from any definite place Of business, then to the definite place of buuinusu at which the ~s~tal of ~uch prop~rty is ~a~aged; and (4} The gro~s receipts from the performance of services shall be attributed to the definite place of buoineoc at which the ser¥ice~ are p~rfor~ed or, if not per£ormcd at any definite plsoe of businems~ then to the definite place of business from which the services are directed or controlled.
