The accounting y/e is 31 December 2014 so the tax is due 1 October 2015 but was not paid until 31 March 2016 Q.8 The donor pays the IHT so it is therefore a net transfer meaning that tax will be payable at 25% (20/80) on the amount of the net transfer in excess of the nil rate band Q.9 The small gifts exemption is a total of £250 per person per tax year.
