SEIS Scheme

Gaelforce Wind launches SEIS investment opportunity. Under the UK Government’s new drive to promote new business, a scheme to allow investors to invest in companies has been launched.

Gaelforce has applied for approval from HMRC for this scheme and it is expected that this approval will be forthcoming in the next 4 weeks. Once approved Gaelforce Wind will immediately become significantly more attractive to investors – up to £150,000 per annum.

Investment in a SEIS approved Company will be rewarded by the government with very attractive income tax and capital gains reliefs.

When investing in an Approved Company the investor will benefit from the following:

  • Income Tax relief. Income tax relief is given at 50% of the sum invested.
  • Capital Gains Re-investment Relief. Capital Gains Tax (CGT) tax at 28% is not payable on an asset sold during the financial year 2012/2013 as long as the gain made on sale of that asset is reinvested into a SEIS approved Company in the same year.
  • Total Combined Relief of 78%.
  • Capital Gains Disposal relief. After 3 years there will be zero capital gains tax payable upon the sale of the SEIS Company shares. TO qualify for the maximum relief the investment would have to be held for a minimum of 3 years.
