Effective rates of CGT in 2008/2009 after new Entrepreneurs relief has been claimed

This table illustrates the CGT payable and the effective rate of CGT you would be paying to illustrate the tax savings available from claiming this relief.

Bear in mind that if no Entrepreneurs relief is claimed any gain would be taxed at an effective 18%.

Any gain less than £1,000,000 would be taxed at the effective 10% rate.
