Share price on 31 March 1982 for calculating capital gains

A Capital Gains Tax (CGT) Liability may arise when you dispose of an asset (eg Shares) which is worth more when you sell it than when you acquired it.

On 6 April 2008 the HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) changed the way CGT is calculated. Further information can be found on their website at www.hmrc.gov.uk/cgt 

The share price on 31 March 1982 was 42.3p on an adjusted basis. This is the figure that can be used for CGT purposes for shares purchased before this date. Neither DS Smith nor our Registrars are able to advise on CGT.
