CGT depends on your other income, since a gain is taxed as the top slice of your total income (before the Annual Exempt Amount is applied). Here's what a £112,500 gain would cost at a couple of income levels, assuming no allowable costs or losses.

Rate breakdown
Annual Exempt Amount: £3,000. This doesn't account for relief on a main home (Private Residence Relief) or Business Asset Disposal Relief - figures use published 2026/27 rates and are estimates for general guidance only, so check your exact position with HMRC or a qualified adviser.
Why the tax due varies
The first £3,000 of gains each year is covered by the Annual Exempt Amount. Above that, the rate depends on which Income Tax band your total income (other income plus the taxable gain) falls into - 18% within your remaining basic rate band, 24% above it.
