(3)Capital allowances brought forward from previous accounting periods are to be ignored.
(4)The reference in section 260(1) of CAA 2001 to a description of the company's income is to be read as a reference to that description of income before deductions for—
(a)losses of any accounting period other than the surrender period, or
(b)capital allowances.
(1)In section 99(1)(e) “UK property business loss” means a loss made in a UK property business in the surrender period.

(1)In section 99(1)(g) “non-trading loss on intangible fixed assets” is to be read in accordance with Part 8 of CTA 2009.
(2)But so much of such a loss as is made up of an amount carried forward under section 753(3) of CTA 2009 is excluded from the scope of section 99(1)(g).
(1)This section applies if the surrendering company has for the surrender period losses or other amounts within section 99(1)(d) to (g) (“relevant amounts”) that are eligible for corporation tax relief (apart from this Part).
(2)The surrendering company may not surrender any relevant amount under this Chapter unless the total of the relevant amounts exceeds the surrendering company's gross profits of the surrender period.
(3)If the total of the relevant amounts does exceed those gross profits—
(a)the surrendering company may surrender relevant amounts, but
(b)the total amount that may be surrendered is limited to the amount of the excess.
(4)If the surrendering company surrenders relevant amounts, the amount surrendered is treated as consisting of—
(a)first, donations within section 99(1)(d),
(b)second, losses within section 99(1)(e),
(c)third, expenses within section 99(1)(f), and
(d)fourth, losses within section 99(1)(g).

(b)is, or represents, an amount within subsection (5).
(3)A loss or other amount is attributable to a permanent establishment of the surrendering company if (ignoring this section) the amount could be included in the company's surrenderable amounts for the surrender period if those amounts were determined—
(a)by reference to that establishment alone, and
(b)by applying, in relation to that establishment, principles corresponding in all material respects to those mentioned in subsection (4).
(4)The principles are those that would be applied for corporation tax purposes in determining an equivalent loss or other amount in the case of a permanent establishment through which a non-UK resident company carries on a trade in the United Kingdom.
(5)An amount is within this subsection if, for the purposes of non-UK tax (see section 187) chargeable under the law of the territory in which the permanent establishment is situated, the amount is (in any period) deductible from or otherwise allowable against non-UK profits (see section 108) of a person other than the surrendering company.
(6)Subsection (7) applies for the purposes of subsection (5) if, in order to determine if an amount is deductible or otherwise allowable for the purposes of non-UK tax chargeable under the law of a territory, it is necessary under that law to know if the amount (or a corresponding amount) is deductible or otherwise allowable for tax purposes in the United Kingdom.
(7)The amount is to be treated as deductible or otherwise allowable for the purposes of the non-UK tax chargeable under the law of the territory concerned if (and only if) the surrendering company is treated as resident in that territory for the purposes of the non-UK tax.
(1)This section applies if the surrendering company is a non-UK resident company carrying on a trade in the United Kingdom through a permanent establishment.
(2)The surrendering company may surrender a loss or other amount under this Chapter only so far as conditions A, B and C are met in relation to the loss or other amount.
(3)Condition A is that the loss or other amount is attributable to activities of the surrendering company in respect of which it is within the charge to corporation tax for the surrender period.
(4)Condition B is that the loss or other amount is not attributable to activities of the surrendering company that are double taxation exempt for the surrender period (see section 186).
(5)Condition C is that—
(a)the loss or other amount does not correspond to, and is not represented in, an amount within subsection (6), and
(b)no amount brought into account in calculating the loss or other amount corresponds to, or is represented in, an amount within subsection (6).
(6)An amount is within this subsection if, for the purposes of non-UK tax chargeable under the law of a territory, the amount is (in any period) deductible from or otherwise allowable against non-UK profits of any person.
(7)But an amount is not to be taken to be within subsection (6) by reason only that it is—
(a)an amount of profits brought into account for the purpose of being excluded from non-UK profits of the person, or
(b)an amount brought into account in calculating an amount of profits brought into account as mentioned in paragraph (a).
(8)Subsection (9) applies for the purposes of subsection (6) if, in order to determine if an amount is deductible or otherwise allowable for the purposes of non-UK tax chargeable under the law of a territory, it is necessary under that law to know if the amount (or a corresponding amount) is deductible or otherwise allowable for tax purposes in the United Kingdom.
(9)The amount is to be treated as deductible or otherwise allowable for the purposes of the non-UK tax chargeable under the law of the territory concerned.
(1)In sections 106 and 107 “non-UK profits”, in relation to a person, means—
(a)amounts within subsection (2), or
(b)amounts taken into account in calculating amounts within subsection (2).
(2)Amounts are within this subsection if they—
(a)are taken for the purposes of the non-UK tax in question to be the amount of the profits, income or gains on which (after allowing for deductions) the person is charged with that tax, and
(b)are not amounts corresponding to, and are not represented in, the total profits of any person of any accounting period.
(3)For the purposes of subsection (2)(b) amounts that arise from activities of a non-UK resident company that are double taxation exempt for an accounting period (see section 186) are excluded from the company's total profits of that period.
(1)This section applies if in the surrender period the surrendering company is UK resident and is also within a charge to non-UK tax under the law of a territory because—
(a)it derives its status as a company from that law,
(b)its place of management is in that territory, or
(c)it is for some other reason treated under that law as resident in that territory for the purposes of that tax.
(2)If condition A, B or C is met, the surrendering company may not surrender any losses or other amounts under this Chapter.
(3)Condition A is that the surrendering company is not a trading company throughout the surrender period.
(4)Condition B is that in the surrender period the surrendering company carries on a trade of such a description that the company's main function, or one of its main functions, consists of one or more of the following activities.
Activity 1

(b)for a purpose that does not appear to be appropriate to any such trade.
(1)This section applies if the surrendering company is prevented from obtaining a deduction in respect of an amount by section 520 of CTA 2009 (provision not at arm's length: non-deductibility of relevant return).
(2)The amount may not be surrendered under this Chapter.
