12ZFThe “amount notionally chargeable”
1
The “amount notionally chargeable” at the filing date for an NRCGT return (“the current return”) is the amount of capital gains tax to which the person whose return it is (“P”) would be chargeable under section 14D or 188D of the 1992 Act for the year to which the return relates (“year Y”), as determined—
a
on the assumption in subsection (2),
b
in accordance with subsection (3), and
c
if P is an individual, on the basis of a reasonable estimate of the matters set out in subsection (4).
2
The assumption mentioned in subsection (1)(a) is that in year Y no NRCGT gain or loss accrues to P on any disposal the completion of which occurs after the day of the completion of the disposals to which the return relates (“day X”).
3
In the determination of the amount notionally chargeable—
a
all allowable losses accruing to P in year Y on disposals of assets the completion of which occurs on or before day X which are available to be deducted under paragraph (a) or (b) of section 14D(2) or (as the case may be) section 188D(2) of the 1992 Act are to be so deducted, and
b
any other relief or allowance relating to capital gains tax which is required to be given in P's case is to be taken into account, so far as the relief would be available on the assumption in subsection (2).
4
The matters mentioned in subsection (1)(c) are—
a
whether or not income tax will be chargeable at the higher rate or the dividend upper rate in respect of P's income for year Y (see section 4(4) of the 1992 Act), and
b
(if P estimates that income tax will not be chargeable as mentioned in paragraph (a)) what P's Step 3 income will be for year Y.
5
An advance self-assessment must, in particular, give particulars of any estimate made for the purposes of subsection (1)(c).
6
A reasonable estimate included in an NRCGT return in accordance with subsection (5) is not regarded as inaccurate for the purposes of Schedule 24 to the Finance Act 2007 (penalties for errors).
7
Where P is the relevant body of an NRCGT group—
a
the references to P in subsections (2) and (3)(a) are to be read as references to any member of the NRCGT group;
b
the reference to P in subsection (3)(b) is to be read as including any member of the NRCGT group.
8
For the purposes of this section—
an estimate is “reasonable” if it is made on a basis that is fair and reasonable, having regard to the circumstances in which it is made;
“Step 3 income”, in relation to an individual, has the same meaning as in section 4 of the 1992 Act.
9
In this section, references to the “relevant body” of an NRCGT group are to be interpreted in accordance with section 188D(4) of the 1992 Act.
10
Section 989 of ITA 2007 (the definitions) applies for the purposes of this section as it applies for income tax purposes.
11
For the meaning of “NRCGT gain” and “NRCGT loss” see section 57B of, and Schedule 4ZZB to, the 1992 Act.
