What We Offer
Corporation Tax Planning: Property Structure, Group Relief and More
Our Tax experts can advice with corporation tax and optimise its tax position through efficient restructuring strategies. Whether you need guidance on Share-for-Share Exchange, CGT Relief, SDLT Group Relief, or other key tax strategies, we offer specific solutions that help you sustain in the long term. We aim to help you minimise tax while supporting your business's growth and flexibility.
Share-for-Share Exchange
If you want to transfer assets or shares between companies without immediate CGT, i.e. "no gain/no loss" treatment and deferring tax liability, we advise on Share-for-Share Exchange that allows for the tax-efficient restructuring of your company's property-holding structure while aligning with your business goals.
SDLT Group Relief
We assist with Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) relief on property transfers between companies within the same group. This relief ensures no SDLT is payable on intercompany property transfers, reducing your tax costs.
CGT Relief
We provide Capital Gains Tax (CGT) Relief guidance, allowing for transferring assets or property portfolios between group companies without triggering immediate CGT. This treatment defers tax liabilities, improves cash flow, and offers tax-efficient restructuring options.
Indexation Allowance
There is an Indexation Allowance when your property business sells assets, which allows you to adjust the original cost of assets for inflation, reducing the taxable gain when assets are sold. We advise you on how to use this allowance to reduce CGT liability significantly.
Substantial Shareholding Exemption (SSE)
We guide you in utilising the Substantial Shareholding Exemption (SSE), which enables your company to sell shares in another company without incurring CGT, provided certain conditions are met, further optimising your tax position.
Why own a property through a Company?
Owning property through a company can offer significant tax advantages and strategic benefits compared to individual ownership. Whether you want to grow your property portfolio, manage tax liabilities more effectively, or plan for the future, structuring your property investments through a company may be the right choice. We assist you in transferring or owning property under a company's name, guiding you through the process to ensure it is structured efficiently.

General queries by our clients related to Corporation Tax Advice & Planning in UK are answered here.
UK resident companies must pay Corporation Tax on their worldwide income and gains. Non- UK resident companies are only subject to UK Corporation Tax on profits from its UK activities. If a company is subject to UK tax and overseas tax both then HMRC will provide double taxation relief, which helps to prevent the same income from being taxed twice.
A company is considered UK resident if either it is incorporated in the UK or it is not incorporated in the Uk, but its place of central management and control is in the UK.
UK Corporation Taxes are payable to the HMRC on the profits of companies in an accounting year. This taxable profit comprises of profits made from doing business, property income, non-trading loan relations, investments and selling assets for more than they cost, overseas income etc.
The Corporation Tax rates are determined based on augmented profits which is total of taxable profits and dividend from non-group companies. But they are charged on taxable profits.
From 1 April 2023, the main rate Corporation Tax has increased from 19% to 25% for companies having augmented profit of more than £250000(upper limit). With introduction of 19% small profit rate of Corporation Taxes for companies having augmented profits of less than £50000(lower limit) and marginal relief is provided to companies whose augmented profits are more than £50000 but less than £250000. For example, companies whose profits are £240000 they would be charged 25% but it would be reduced by marginal relief.
If your accounting period is shorter than 12 months these profit limits are proportionately reduced. These limits are also proportionately reduced by the number of associated companies your company has.
