What's the difference between capital gains and taxable income?
In simple terms, CGT is a tax on the profit when you dispose of an asset that's increased in value. Selling your business is a common reason to need to pay Capital Gains tax. CGT is different to income tax which (as it sounds) is charged on income such as salaries, dividends and interest.
