Tax
Tax compliance and planning that work together
Tax compliance and planning for companies, partnerships and growing groups.
Corporation tax, partnerships and growing business groups each bring their own compliance requirements and planning opportunities. We handle filings accurately, identify available reliefs, including R&D credits and capital allowances, and plan ahead rather than repeating the same position each year.
- Corporation tax computation, CT600 preparation and HMRC filing.
- R&D tax credit and capital allowance reviews across the business.
- Group structure and inter company transaction planning advice.
Our approach
How we deliver business tax
Compliance review and planning window
We review the year's position income, expenses, capital allowances, R&D activity and group transactions before year end where possible, to identify reliefs and planning opportunities while there is still time to act on them.
Computation and filing
We prepare the corporation tax computation accurately, identify all available reliefs and deductions, and file the CT600 and iXBRL accounts to HMRC within the statutory deadline.
Proactive planning for the year ahead
After filing, we review the position for the upcoming year and flag any structural changes, investment decisions or transactions that would benefit from early planning advice.

Client feedback
“The R&D claim we had missed for three years was identified and filed in the first year. The tax saving more than covered the advisory fees for the entire engagement.”

Common questions
Frequently asked questions
What are R&D tax credits and do I qualify?
Research and Development tax credits allow companies to claim enhanced deductions for qualifying R&D expenditure. Qualifying activities include resolving technical or scientific uncertainty not just laboratory research. Software development, engineering, new product development and certain process improvements can all qualify. We review eligibility as part of the tax planning process.
What capital allowances are available?
Capital allowances allow businesses to deduct the cost of qualifying plant, machinery and other assets from taxable profits. The Annual Investment Allowance provides 100% relief up to the current threshold. We review all capital expenditure to ensure every available allowance is claimed.
When does the corporation tax return need to be filed?
The corporation tax return must be filed within twelve months of the accounting period end. The tax itself is due nine months and one day after the year end for smaller companies. We manage both deadlines and send records requests and reminders to ensure neither is missed.
What is group relief and when does it apply?
Group relief allows losses from one group company to be set against profits of another, reducing the overall group tax liability. It applies where companies are at least 75% connected by ownership. We identify group relief opportunities and coordinate the claims across the group.
