Compute Rajesh’s capital gains tax liability for 2022/23 on the assumption that net
gains
were £48,000 (all of which related to ‘other’ non-residential property) and that he
had
unrelieved allowable capital losses at 5 April 2022 of £6,000. His taxable income
for
2022/23 after deducting the personal allowance was £27,000.

(c) Rajesh is contemplating the sale of a house for around £400,000. It cost
£100,000. The
total period of ownership of the house would be nine years. Rajesh and his wife
occupied
the house as their main residence for the first 40 months of ownership and since
then it has
been let out to tenants. It is unlikely that the house will be reoccupied before
the sale.
During the time since the letting started, Rajesh and Dipa have had another
property which
qualifies as their main residence.
Advise Rajesh on the chargeable gain that is likely to arise on the sale and show
any
available reliefs. You should include an estimate of the chargeable gain.
