CGT is chargeable on the sum of gains and losses accrued in any tax year. While everyday items generally qualify for a CGT exemption, the allowances and reliefs available to individuals parting with assets liable for CGT have changed over the years, so it is well worth seeking advice before making any decisions.

Timing can be critical when it comes to selling or disposing of an asset. Our expert CGT advice covers many areas, including:

• Principal Private Residence Relief
• Roll-over relief
• Business Asset Disposal Relief (formerly known as Entrepreneurs’ relief)
• Gift relief
• Reinvestment relief
