The amount of gain (or profit) you make is taxed, rather than the amount of money you receive from the sale.<\/p>\n<p>Disposing of an asset refers to selling it, giving it away, swapping it for something else, or getting compensation for it (for example from an insurance claim).<\/p>\n<h2>What is Capital Gains Tax Paid on?<\/h2>\n<p>Capital Gains Tax is typically paid when you dispose of any of the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Personal possessions worth over \u00a36,000 (excluding your car)<\/li>\n<li>Any property that isn\u2019t your main home<\/li>\n<li>Your main home if you\u2019ve let it out, used it for business, or it\u2019s very large<\/li>\n<li>Shares that aren\u2019t in an ISA or a PEP<\/li>\n<li>Business Assets<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Capital Gains on Property<\/h2>\n<p>CCGT is not usually payable on the gains you make on your only or main home, as these typically qualify for private residence relief (PRR).
