Get a Super-Deduction: Buy new computers and claim 130% capital allowance

If your business is a Limited company and pays corporation tax it can currently claim 130% capital allowance against certain new equipment. Equipment includes new computers, servers, NAS boxes and other IT equipment.

This means that if you buy some new computer equipment for £1000 it will reduce your corporation tax bill as if you had spent £1300.

This Super-Deduction tax relief scheme is running from 1st April 2021 and lasts two years.

It ends on 31st March 2023

This has been introduced to encourage you to invest in your business. Your accountant should be able to help but you can read the HMRC summary here.
