What Are R&D Tax Credits
Companies in the UK are eligible to claim back tax relief for any incurred costs in developing new products, processes or services to receive a cash payment or tax deduction.
Introduced in 2000 and pledged to run until 2032, R&D tax credits are a Government scheme designed to incentivise companies to promote innovation in R&D. Currently, over 35,000 UK companies are claiming more than £3bn combined in tax relief every year.

How Much Could You Claim?
R&D credits may be claimed in respect of any sum. The previous minimum limit of £10,000 has been removed. The maximum that may be claimed is €7.5m for any one project. However, the claim must be made within two years of the end of the accounting period in which the R&D expenditure was incurred.

What Could You Expect?
The tax relief on allowable R&D costs incurred on or after 1 April 2015 is 230% therefore, for each £100 of qualifying costs, your company could have its Corporation Tax profits reduced by an additional £130 on top of the £100 spent.
If instead there’s an allowable trading loss for the period, this can be boosted by 130% of the qualifying R&D expenses. This loss can be utilised in the normal way or ‘sold’ to HMRC for a cash sum.
