Capital Gains Tax is levied on profits or gains made when you sell, give away, transfer or exchange (‘dispose of’) something of value (‘an asset’).
For limited companies, capital gains form part of the total profits of a company on which they pay corporation tax.

We can analyse your situation to see whether you are liable to pay Capital Gains Tax.
We keep abreast of changes in the law to help you save money if certain assets are no longer taxed.
There are numerous allowances and reliefs available, many of which require elections to be made within strict time limits.
