Where this goes wrong

The computation matters as much as the deadline

Most CGT errors are not late filings. They are wrong figures — cost bases reconstructed from memory, losses left unclaimed, reliefs missed.

□

Cost base is harder to establish than it looksShares bought over many years, inherited assets, gifts — the starting cost is not always obvious and getting it wrong moves the gain

□

Matching rules catch out frequent tradersThe same-day and 30-day bed-and-breakfast rules apply regardless of whether you knew about them

□

Crypto disposals are not just sales for cashSwapping one token for another, and using crypto to pay for things, both count as disposals

□

Losses are not applied automaticallyThey have to be claimed, and the window is four years. Unclaimed losses are simply lost

□

The residential property deadline is 60 daysNot January. Many clients only discover this after it has passed

□

Business reliefs have conditions that must be metBusiness Asset Disposal Relief requires qualifying criteria to be satisfied, and the claim to be made on time

What’s included

Every disposal computed, every relief checked

Gain & loss computations

Cost base, disposal proceeds and the matching rules applied correctly for shares, funds, crypto and business assets.

Loss claims

Current-year losses offset, prior-year losses carried forward, and any losses worth claiming identified before the window closes.

Annual exemption & reliefs

Annual exempt amount applied, and reliefs such as Business Asset Disposal Relief checked for eligibility.

Residential property returns

The 60-day return prepared and filed on time, with the payment calculated to avoid interest.

Self Assessment reporting

All gains included in your return, reconciled to any 60-day returns already filed in the year.

A written computation

What you disposed of, the gain or loss on each, and how the final figure was reached — in writing.

How it works

Four steps from disposal to filed return

We gather the disposal details — proceeds, dates, cost and any associated costs

The gain or loss is computed under the correct rules, with matching applied where relevant

Reliefs and exemptions are identified and applied, and you see the computation before anything is submitted

Filed — via the 60-day return where required, and via Self Assessment for all others

Fees

You will know the number before we start

Every engagement is scoped before it is priced. One figure for the work, agreed in writing before anything begins. Never hourly, and never a percentage of anything.

What it comes to depends on the number and complexity of the disposals, and whether a 60-day return is needed alongside your Self Assessment. The scoping and the quote are free. All quotes exclude VAT.
