Capital Gains Tax (CGT)
CGT is a tax on capital 'gains'. If when you sell or give away an asset it
has increased in value, you may be taxable on the 'gain' (profit). This
doesn't apply when you sell personal belongings worth £6,000 or less or,
in most cases, your main home.
When do I have to pay CGT?
You may have to pay CGT if, for example, you:
• Sell or give away an asset such as commercial or residential property or
company shares.
• Give assets to your children or others or sell them assets cheaply.
What rate is CGT charged at?
• It is charged as an additional amount on top of your other income so if
you are already a 40% tax payer, then this is the rate you will pay CGT.
But we can help by-
• Calculating the gain on the sale as early as possible so you have the
maximum time to save for the tax payment
• Advising on what costs you can claim to reduce the liability.
Notes for Contractors and Freelancers
• Since April 2007 it has been very difficult to operate as a contractor
unless you do so via a Limited Company.
• But operating within Inland Revenue rules without paying a Kings Ransom
to an Umbrella Company isn’t easy- however we can help.
• We can offer a personal and comprehensive service to you backed by the
experience of acting for many other contractors.
