Corporation Tax on Chargeable Gains

Indexation Allowance allows for the effects of inflation when calculating the chargeable gains of companies or organisations liable to Corporation Tax.

When a company makes a capital gain on or after 1 January 2018, the indexation allowance that is applied in order to determine the amount of the chargeable gain will be calculated up to December 2017 rather than the month in which the disposal of the asset occurs.
