About the Capital Gains Tax Calculator

Use this UK capital gains tax calculator to estimate CGT on property, shares and investments for the 2026/27 tax year.

Enter your income, gains from shares or investments, and gains from residential property to estimate your total CGT liability.

For 2026/27, gains within your unused basic-rate Income Tax band are taxed at 18%, and gains above that band at 24%. The same rates apply to residential property and to shares and other assets.

This calculator gives an estimate only. Reliefs such as Private Residence Relief or Business Asset Disposal Relief may reduce your liability.
