Corporation Tax Act 2009

Section 915: UK resident companies: proceeds of sale received in instalments

2317.This section sets out the spreading rules if the company chargeable by virtue of section 912 is UK resident and receives the proceeds of sale in instalments. It is based on section 524 of ICTA. The corresponding rule for income tax is in section 590(1) and (4) to (6) of ITTOIA.

2318.Subsection (5) states the time limit for elections under subsection (4). Unlike the source legislation this section does not specify to whom the election must be made. But the general rules about claims and elections in Schedule 18 to FA 1998 require elections to be made in a return or, if that is not possible, to “an officer of Revenue and Customs” in accordance with Schedule 1A to TMA.
