Part Disposal
- This concept is applicable when a person sold a part of an asset

- Cost of part sold is calculated as = M.V of part sold * original cost


M.V of whole asset

Example 1:

10 Acres of Land purchased for £100,000 10 Acres

After few years, 4 Acres sold for £500,000

Remaining 6 Acres M.V at that time is 1 Million

6 Acres

At disposal time, MV is £1,000,000

Example 3:(Painting  Antique Life normally more than 50 years Non-Wasting Chattel)

Babar sold a painting in October 2022 for a sum of £8,400. He had bought the painting in 2001 at a cost
of £4,100. Calculate capital gains for 22/23.

Example 4:(Vases  Antique Life normally more than 50 years  Non-Wasting Chattel)

Asma bought a pair of vases for £3,000 in November 2005. She sold one vase in April 2020 for £5,400,
when market value of the other vase was £6,600.

She sold the second vase in June 2022 for £8,700. Calculate capital gains on both transactions.

Harry bought a copyright on 1 July 2016 for £20,000. The copyright is due to expire in July 2036. He sold
it on 1 July 2022 for £22,000. Calculate his gains for 22/23.

Shares  Market Value?


* Un-quoted company share’s price  given in exam

* Quoted company share’s price can be calculated as follows:

- Average of ask and bid price or

- Half-up of bid price

Example:

Buying (Bid) Price 80.4


Selling (Ask) Price 80.6

Average of ask and bid price or

Half-up of bid price

10
Shares  Cost?
- It is very important to calculate the cost of shares at time of shares disposal, because;

- A person purchased different number of shares at different dates and disposing the
shareholding at once from the acquired shares

- Then the cost of shares would be calculated by means of “Matching Principle”

- Matching Principle:

1. Same day purchases (disposal date)

2. Next 30 days purchases (disposal date to next 30 days)

3. Shares in the pool (on weighted average basis)

Shares pool to be created by keeping in mind the following:

Right Issue Bonus Issue

Issued to existing shareholders Issued to existing shareholders

Total No. of shares Increase, Total cost Increases Total No. of shares Increase, No impact on cost

Issued against some consideration Issued free of cost

11
Transfer of Assets between Spouses or Civil Partners in Capital Gains
- Transfer of any asset between spouses or civil partners will be exempt from capital gains

- Irrespective of the consideration involved

Husband Transferred a house (Cost £100,000) to his wife


Husband Wife

Case A Case B

Sold @ Gifted
(No consideration
£175,000 received)

12
Capital Loss
Step 1:

Current year CL on disposal of an asset  Adjust against  Capital gain in current year from disposal of
other assets

Step 2:

After the adjustment in step 1 above, if there is still capital loss remaining  adjust against  future
capital gains (first available income and maximum possible extent), however, loss should be restricted to
preserver “Annual Exemption (AE) of £12,300”.

Example:
Show the treatment of CL:

(Without planning AE) 21/22 22/23 23/24

- Connected persons  Parents, Siblings, Children, In-laws etc….

- If a person Sale / Transfer / Gift of Assets to Connected Person, it would always be considered at
M.V

- DP = MV

- When asset gifted  Relief available Gift Relief (Gift holdover relief)

Depreciating assets:
Asset becomes wasting in 10 years. Asset with a life of 60 years or less is Depreciating. Plant and
machinery is always treated as depreciating.

Crystallization of Deferred Gain:


- The deferred gain (under HOR) is not deducted from the cost of new asset (like ROR)
- The deferred gain simply “Freeze” and become taxable at the earliest of;

(a) The disposal of the replacement asset and proceeds are not re-invested
(b) The date the replacement asset ceases to be used in the business
(c) Ten years after the acquisition of the replacement asset (maximum)

Question 13 (Gain deferred into depreciating asset)

Norma bought a freehold shop for use in her business in June 2014 for £125,000. She sold it for
£140,000 on 1 August 2022. On 10 July 2022, Norma bought some fixed plant and machinery to use in
her business, costing £150,000. She then sells the plant and machinery for £167,000 on 19 November
2023. Show Norma's gains in relation to these transactions.

What would be changed to answer if Norma disposed of plant and machinery on 19 Nov 2033?

Re-organization / Takeover / Acquisition and Shares for Shares Exchange
- Re-organization / Takeover means, a company is acquiring another company and at that time
- Existing shareholders get additional number of shares for free of cost
- When the shareholder dispose the shareholding in future, then the determination of cost of
shares is very important as he got the shares for free
- Lets take an example

Acquired 10,000 shares @ 10 each = £100,000 Company Y

Re-organization / Takeover / Acquisition and Shares for Shares and Cash Exchange

- As discussed earlier, Re-organization / Takeover means, a company is acquiring another


company and at that time
- Existing shareholders get additional number of shares for free of cost and
- Cash against the shares already held by them, and it cash received will be taxed immediately
- When the shareholder dispose the shareholding in future, then the determination of cost of
shares is very important as he got the shares for free
- Lets take an example

Re-organization / Takeover / Acquisition and Shares for Shares and Loan Notes

- As discussed earlier, Re-organization / Takeover means, a company is acquiring another


company and at that time
- Existing shareholders might get additional number of new shares, cash and
- loan notes against the shares already held by them and any future disposal of loan notes would
be exempt from CGT (as the loan notes are Qualifying Corporate Bonds)

(a) Calculate the chargeable gains, if any, arising on the incorporation of Sarah’s business and state
Sarah’s base cost in the shares in Sarah Ltd assuming:

Sarah incorporated her sole trader business on 1 June 2022. The assets transferred to the new company,
Sarah Ltd, are set out below:

(b) Calculate the CGT payable by Sarah in 2023/24 assuming she received only shares on incorporation
(scenario part (a)(i) above), and she sold all of the shares on 1 May 2023 for £300,000. She makes no
other disposals in the tax year.

Assume that the rates and allowances for 2022/23 continue in the future.

Interaction of BADR with other Reliefs

- BADR vs Gift Relief / Holdover Relief


- BADR vs Paper For Paper Exchange Relief
- BADR vs Rollover Relief / Holdover Relief

 Go with deferral relief  Pay more but later


 No go with deferral relief  Pay less but now

Tax Planning Aspect:


If future disposal does not qualify for BADR (whereas, currently you will get it), from tax saving angle,
should not go for deferral relief.

Example: (BADRvsGift Relief / Holdover Relief)

On 10 January 2023, Delroy made a gift of 25,000 £1 ordinary shares in Dub Ltd, an unquoted trading
company, to his son, Grant. The market value of the shares on that date was £240,000. Delroy had
subscribed for the 25,000 shares in Dub Ltd at par on 1 July 2006. Delroy and Grant have elected to hold
over the gain as a gift of a business asset.

Grant sold the 25,000 shares in Dub Ltd on 18 March 2023 for £240,000. Dub Ltd has a share capital of
100,000 £1 ordinary shares. Delroy was the sales director of the company from its incorporation on 1
July 2006 until 10 January 2023. Grant has never been an employee or a director of Dub Ltd.

For the tax year 2022/23, Delroy and Grant are both higher rate taxpayers. They have each made
other disposals of assets during the tax year 2022/23, and therefore they have both already utilized
their annual exempt amount for this year.

If Paper for Paper Exchange Relief is Disapplied at time of Exchange, then

Jointly Owned Assets
- From the income generating assets  any income / capital gains  always distributed equally
- Unless; there is an election for the proportion of the ownership of the asset.

Joint Bank Account  Interest Income


- Income from joint bank account  always distributed equally
- There is no concept of proportion of ownership

Joint shareholding
- From legal aspect, there is no concept of joint shareholding
- Dividend is always based on actual shareholding

Negligible Value Claim (NVC)


- When any of the asset becomes “NIL” or “Approximately NIL” value (&Asset is not insured)

- Then NVC can be made in the following 2 situations:

1. Asset  Destroyed / Stolen

2. Asset  Shares of a company (e.g. when a company is about to bankrupt)

How NVC works:

- A person can make an election, under which it is assumed that asset is sold today @ its M.V
(which is = NIL) & realizes a capital loss (not necessary – asset sold actually)

- It is further assumed that the asset is re-acquired @ its today’s M.V

Assumption 1 Assumption 2

Deemed DP NIL

Cost NIL

Benefit of VNC:

- For NVC  It is possible to carry the loss back upto 2 years, provided the asset
would be of Negligible Value that time.

47
Terminal Capital Loss (TCL)
- Capital loss arose in the fiscal year in which a person dies, would be treated as TCL
- For example, a person died in the FY 22/23 and he has capital loss in the same FY
- TCL would be adjusted by carrying back it against capital gains, upto 03 tax years on LIFO basis
(maximum possible extent)

19/20 20/21 21/22 22/23 (Death Year)

- However, loss should be restricted to preserve Annual Exemption (like capital loss b/f)
- The refund from adjusting the TCL from previous year’s gains would be Taxable Receipt for IHT
purposes

Small Part Disposal of Land & Building


Disposing a small part of land& building at time of disposal there would be a gain amount,

unless an election is made; to make the gains exempt at disposal time of that small part

The effects / consequences of making election is:

- There will be no part disposal @ that time


- The gain would be deferred until the disposal of remainder part
- No need to pay immediate tax on part disposal

How the relief works:

- The gain would be deferred be deducting the proceeds receive on part disposal from original
cost of asset

- The “base cost” of part retained is reduced & future gain on disposal would be higher.

What is the definition of small part land & building?

a) Disposal less than 20% of the total current value (before disposal) AND
b) Total disposal of land in the year is less than £20,000

(both conditions should be met)

Example:

4 hectares of Land purchased for £40,000. After some time, 0.5 hectare sold for £12,000 when the MV
of whole land was £100,000.

48
Sale of Rights– NIL Paid
- Let say, I have 10,000 shares of a company, and today company announced a 1 for 4 Right Issue.

- Then, I am eligible to be entitled to receive 2500 shares (10000X1/4) at a less than MV.

- Assume, I am going to sale of rights of right issue, then if;

1. Selling price is less than 5% of total value of shares OR


less than £3,000,
 no chargeable disposal @ time of “Sale of Rights – NIL paid”.

&

S.P (Consideration Received) would be deducted from cost of share (base cost would be
reducedand future gain on disposal would be higher)

2. Selling price is more than 5% of the total value of sharesAND


more than £3,000,
 deemed part disposal of original shares held (Due to TERP), “Normal part disposal
calculation”.

49
CGT Liability Payment Date  at once pay @ 31 January after FY

FY 22/23 (6.Apr.22 ------- 5. Apr. 23) 

Land/Building/Controlling Shares of a Company &Installment Option

If a person has gifted any of the above stated assets and if Gift Relief is Not Available on such gifts,
Then,
- Person can pay CGT liability in 10 Equal Annual Installments, starting on normal due date, then
annually thereafter.
- If the asset is disposed off by the giftee/transferee within 10 years, then all remaining
installments become immediately payable.
- If installment is late, then interest would charge @ 3.25% on all remaining installments.

Disposal of Residential Property &Payments on Account

A payment on account (POA) must now be made within 30 days where capital gains tax is payable in
respect ofa disposal of residentialproperty. A return must be submitted to HMRC at the same time.

Example:Mr. Zee, a High-Rate Taxpayer, disposed the following assets during the FY 22/23:

- 24 April 2022, £5,000 capital loss on disposal of X shares


- 11 June 2022, £9,000 capital gain on disposal of Y shares
- 31 July 2022, £50,000 capital gain on disposal of Residential Property
- 09 Sept 2022, £1,000 capital loss of disposal of Z shares

Capital loss on disposals – Prior to the disposal of R.P in same FY (xx)
b/f Capital Loss (xx)
Annual exempt amount (xx)

The calculation of the payment on account takes into account the annual exempt amount, any capital
losses incurred in the same taxyear prior to the disposal of the residential property, plus any brought
forward capital losses. Any other chargeable gains and capitallosses incurred subsequent to the disposal
of the residential property are ignored.

It is necessary to make an estimate as to how much of the taxpayer’s basic rate tax band will be
available for the tax year.

50
A payment on account of capital gains tax has nothing to do with the normal self-assessment payments
on account due on 31January in the tax year, and 31 July following the tax year.

The residential property gain is still included in the taxpayer’s self-assessment capital gains tax
computation following the end of thetax year, with the payment on account being deducted from the
total capital gains tax liability. Any additional tax is payable on 31January following the tax year. If a
repayment is due, then this will be claimed when the self-assessment tax return for the tax year
issubmitted.
