No gain/no loss disposalsU.K.
69.—(1) This regulation applies if, for the purposes of tax in respect of chargeable gains, any disposal of the whole or part of a substantial QIS holding falls within any of the following provisions of TCGA 1992—
(a)section 58(1) (transfers between spouses);
(b)section 62(4) (acquisition as legatee);
(c)section 139 (company reconstructions) M1;
(d)section 140A (transfers of a UK trade) M2;
(e)section 140E (merger leaving assets within the UK tax charge) M3;
(f)section 171(1) (transfers within a group) M4.
(2) Regulation 67(3) or 68(3) (as the case may be) does not apply in relation to the disposal.
(3) On and after the date of the transfer, the transferee's holding in the qualified investor scheme is a substantial QIS holding in that scheme (whether or not the transferee's holding in that scheme (if any) was a substantial QIS holding in that scheme before that date).
(4) If the transferee disposes of the whole, or part, of the substantial QIS holding, the held-over gain or, as the case may be, a corresponding part of the held-over gain, is treated as accruing to the transferee on the disposal.
(5) In paragraph (4) “the held-over gain” means the chargeable gain or loss that would have accrued to the transferor if the disposal falling within paragraph (1) had been a disposal to which regulation 68(3) had applied.
