Introduction

The cap on unlimited income tax reliefs applies from 6 April 2013. The cap only applies where the person claims more than £50,000 in reliefs in any one tax year. It acts to limit the relief for the tax year to the greater of:

1. •

   £50,000

2. •

   25% of the ‘adjusted total income’ (see below)

ITA 2007, s 24A(1)–(5)

This guidance note discusses the reliefs which are and are not subject to the cap as well as the operation of the cap. For more on the impact of the cap on claims over multiple tax years, see the Cap on unlimited income tax reliefs ― claims
