 4 credit. (a) Allowance of credit. A taxpayer shall be allowed a credit,

 13 for any taxable year shall not reduce the tax due for such year to less

 15 of section two hundred ten of this article. If, however, the amount of
 16 credits allowed under this subdivision for any taxable year reduces the

 18 taxable year shall be treated as an overpayment of tax to be credited or
