Corporate Income Tax: Unutilised Capital Allowances and Unutilised Trade Losses

The unutilised capital allowances or unutilised trade losses can be carried forward to set off against a company’s future income, if the “Shareholding Test” is satisfied (i.e. when there is no substantial change in its shareholders and their shareholdings as at the relevant dates).
The unutilised capital allowances can only be deducted against future income if the company continues to carry on the same trade or business for which capital allowances are given.
