Business Asset Disposal Relief (BADR) (formally called Entrepreneurs' Relief) is a relief that reduces the rate of Capital Gains Tax (CGT) paid to 10% on the disposal of a qualifying business asset.

The difficult part is working out the different rules.

Disposals made by an individual:

  • Between 6 April 2014 and 29 October 2018
  • Between 29 October 2018 and 5 April 2019
  • On or After 6 April 2019

Covering the following different scenarios:

  1. Disposal of a sole trade business to a third party
  2. Disposal of part of the business to a third party
  3. Disposal of the different assets of a sole trade business 
  4. Disposals with or without goodwill
  5. Disposal to a close company
  6. Disposal to a connected company

Tool FAQs

1. What does the tool do?

"Congratulations, your business disposal will qualify for Business Asset Disposal Relief"

  • The tool works out if your disposal meets the qualifying criteria to claim Business Asset Disposal Relief.
  • It applies across multiple different permutations of the rules and provides different outcomes to around 50 permutations.
  • It does not work out your gain or tax due, as these are the next steps. If BADR does apply, tax is 10% of your gain (subject to the lifetime limit for BADR).

2. How long does it take?

  • Allow about 60 minutes if you are new to it and need to check some of the definitions and meanings (these are supplied by the tool).
  • You also need to gather data to use the tool, you will soon work out what you need.
  • About 3 minutes once you have run through it.

3. How long did it take to write and test this tool?

  • About three weeks, a lot longer than we thought: even we had no idea how complicated this relief has become.

4. How long would it take to work your way through the legislation without the tool?

The CGT legislation is:

Section 169H to 169V TCGA 1992, see Business Asset Disposal Relief legislation
