Capital Gains Tax Services: Minimize Your CGT Liabilities and Maximize Returns

Capital Gains Tax (CGT) is a tax on the profit (or gain) made when you sell or dispose of an asset such as property, stocks, or business interests. It’s essential to understand how CGT applies to your investments and assets in order to minimize your liability and maximize your returns. At Jassim Financial Solutions, we provide expert Capital Gains Tax (CGT) services to help you navigate the complexities of CGT, optimize your tax strategy, and ensure full compliance with HMRC regulations.

What is Capital Gains Tax?

Capital Gains Tax is applied to the profit made from the sale of assets or investments that have increased in value. Common assets subject to CGT include:

  • Real Estate and Property: Any gain made on the sale of residential or commercial property, excluding your primary residence (subject to certain conditions).
  • Shares and Stocks: Any gain made from the sale of shares, bonds, or other financial investments.
  • Business Assets: Gain from selling business shares or assets.
