    Dear Jill,

    Please consider the data below noting that it is based on this rule, “Loss-making period of less than 12 months,”

    6 m/e 31.3.2024 Trading LOSS £100,000
    y/e 30.9.2023 Trading profit £ 25,000
    y/e 30.9.2022 Trading profit £ 35,000
    y/e 30.9.2021 Trading profit £ 15,000

    QUESTION: According to the data provided above, AND assuming it is a TERMINAL Loss relief situation, is it possible to FULLY carry back the loss incurred in the 6 months ended 31.3.2024 to 36 months?

    Ref: OpenTuition manual; Pg 150.

    First – NEVER ASSUME!

    If the loss is for an ongoing business then carry back is 12 month
    If its at the end of a business then you carry back 36 months – you are unlikely to get a final set of accounts being 6 months given the change in the rules – it will be a 12 month loss making period – see TLR rules
