Restrictions on the deduction of pre-entry losses U.K.

6 (1) In the calculation of the amount to be included in respect of chargeable gains in any company’s total profits for any accounting period— U.K.

(a) if in that period there is any chargeable gain from which the whole or any part of any pre-entry loss accruing in that period is deductible in accordance with paragraph 7 below, the loss or, as the case may be, that part of it shall be deducted from that gain;

(b) if, after all such deductions as may be made under paragraph (a) above have been made, there is in that period any chargeable gain from which the whole or any part of any pre-entry loss carried forward from a previous accounting period is deductible in accordance with paragraph 7 below, the loss or, as the case may be, that part of it shall be deducted from that gain [F10 (subject to sub-paragraphs (1A) to (1C)];

(c) the total chargeable gains (if any) remaining after the making of all such deductions as may be made under paragraph (a) or (b) above shall be subject to deductions in accordance with [F11 section 2A(1)] [F12 (subject to sub-paragraphs (1A) to (1C))] in respect of any allowable losses that are not pre-entry losses; and

(d) any pre-entry loss which has not been the subject of a deduction under paragraph (a) or (b) above (as well as any other losses falling to be carried forward under [F13 section 2A(1)]) shall be carried forward to the following accounting period of that company.

[F14 (1A) Sub-paragraph (1B) applies, in respect of an accounting period, if the amount of chargeable gains accruing to the company in the period exceeds the total of—

(a) the amount of pre-entry losses accruing to the company in the period that are deductible under sub-paragraph (1)(a), and

(b) the amount of allowable losses, other than pre-entry losses, accruing to the company in the period.

(1B) Where this sub-paragraph applies in respect of an accounting period—

(a) the sum of any deductions under sub-paragraph (1)(b) may not exceed the total of—

(i) the amount of pre-entry losses that, on the assumption in sub-paragraph (1C), would be deductible under sub-paragraph (1)(b), and

(ii) the amount of allowable losses (other than pre-entry losses) that, on the assumption in sub-paragraph (1C), would be deductible under section 2A(1), and

(b) for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(c), the deductions made under section 2A(1) may not exceed the difference between—

(i) the total of the amounts mentioned in paragraph (a)(i) and (ii), and

(ii) the amount of pre-entry losses deducted under sub-paragraph (1)(b).

(1C) The assumption is that deductions under sub-paragraph (1)(b) are treated for the purposes of Part 7ZA of CTA 2010 (restrictions on obtaining certain deductions) as if they were made under section 2A(1)(b) of this Act.]

(2) Subject to sub-paragraph (1) above, any question as to which or what part of any pre-entry loss has been deducted from any particular chargeable gain shall be decided—

F15 (a) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Gains from which pre-entry losses are to be deductible U.K.

7 (1) A pre-entry loss that accrued to a company before it became a member of the relevant group shall be deductible from a chargeable gain accruing to that company if the gain is one accruing— U.K.

(a) on a disposal made by that company before the date on which it became a member of the relevant group (“the entry date”);

(b) on the disposal of an asset which was held by that company immediately before the entry date; or

[F19 (c) on the disposal of any asset in respect of which the conditions in sub-paragraph (1A) are met.]

[F20 (1A) The conditions referred to in sub-paragraph (1)(c) are—

(a) that the asset was acquired, on or after the entry date, by—

(i) the company to which the pre-entry loss accrued (“company A”), or

(ii) a company which, at the time of the acquisition, was a group company of company A,

from a person who at the time of the acquisition was not a group company of company A, and

(b) that the asset has not, since its acquisition from that person, been used or held for any purposes other than those of a trade or business which—

(i) was being carried on by company A immediately before the entry date, and

(ii) continued until the disposal to be carried on by company A or a company which, when it carried on the trade or business, was a group company of company A.

(1B) For the purposes of sub-paragraph (1A), a company is a “group company of company A” at any time when it is a member of a group of companies of which company A is also a member.

(1C) Where a company, having become a member of the relevant group, subsequently becomes a member of another group (“the new group”)—

(a) sub-paragraph (1) continues to have effect, in relation to any loss which accrued to the company before it became a member of the relevant group, by reference to the date on which it became such a member, and

(b) accordingly, that sub-paragraph does not apply separately in relation to the loss by reason of it also having accrued to the company before it became a member of the new group.]

F21 (2) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

(3) Where two or more companies become members of the relevant group at the same time and those companies were all members of the same group of companies immediately before they became members of the relevant group, then F22 ... —

(a) an asset shall be treated for the purposes of sub-paragraph (1)(b) above as held, immediately before it became a member of the relevant group, by the company to which the pre-entry loss in question accrued if that company is one of those companies and the asset was in fact so held by another of those companies;

F23 (b) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ; and

(c) the acquisition of an asset shall be treated for the purposes of [F24 sub-paragraph (1A)] above as an acquisition by the company to which the pre-entry loss in question accrued if that company is one of those companies and the asset was in fact acquired (whether before or after they became members of the relevant group) by another of those companies.

[F25 (4) Sub-paragraphs (4A) and (4B) apply for determining for the purposes of this paragraph whether an asset on the disposal of which a chargeable gain accrues was an asset held by a company immediately before the entry date (a “pre-entry asset”).

(4A) Except as provided by sub-paragraph (4B), an asset is not a pre-entry asset if—

(a) the company which held the asset at the entry date is not the company which makes the disposal, and

(b) since the entry date that asset has been disposed of otherwise than by a disposal to which section 171 applies.

(4B) Without prejudice to sub-paragraph (4C), where, on a disposal to which section 171 does not apply—

(a) an asset would cease to be a pre-entry asset by virtue of sub-paragraph (4A), but

(b) the company making the disposal retains an interest in or over the asset in question,

that interest is a pre-entry asset.

(4C) For the purposes of this paragraph—

(a) an asset acquired or held by a company at any time and an asset held at a later time by that company, or by any company which is or has been a member of the same group of companies as that company, is to be treated as the same asset if the value of the second asset is derived in whole or in part from the first asset, and

(b) if—

(i) any asset is treated (whether by virtue of paragraph (a) or otherwise) as the same as an asset held by a company at a later time, and

(ii) the first asset would have been a pre-entry asset in relation to that company,

the second asset is also to be treated as a pre-entry asset in relation to that company;

and paragraph (a) applies, in particular, where the second asset is a freehold and the first asset is a leasehold the lessee of which acquires the reversion.]

(5) Subject to sub-paragraph (6) below, where a gain accrues on the disposal of the whole or any part of—

(a) any asset treated as a single asset but comprising assets only some of which were held at the time mentioned in paragraph (b) of sub-paragraph (1) F26 ... above, or

(b) an asset which is treated as held at that time by virtue of a provision requiring an asset which was not held at that time to be treated as the same as an asset which was so held,

a pre-entry loss shall be deductible by virtue of paragraph (b) of sub-paragraph (1) F26 ... above from the amount of that gain to the extent only of such proportion of that gain as is attributable to assets held at that time or, as the case may be, represents the gain that would have accrued on the asset so held.

(6) Where—

(a) a chargeable gain accrues by virtue of subsection (10) of section 116 on the disposal of a qualifying corporate bond,

(b) that bond was not held as required by paragraph (b) of sub-paragraph (1) F27 ... above at the time mentioned in that paragraph, and

(c) the whole or any part of the asset which is the old asset for the purposes of that section was so held,

the question whether that gain is one accruing on the disposal of an asset the whole or any part of which was held by a particular company at that time shall be determined for the purposes of this paragraph as if the bond were deemed to have been so held to the same extent as the old asset.
