Section 385 No carry back of loss against the incomeF3

This section applies if the business carried on by the company is a trade carried on wholly or partly in the United Kingdom the profits of which are chargeable to corporation tax under Chapter 2 of Part 3 of CTA 2009 (trading income).

No part of a loss may be deducted under section 37(3)(b) (relief for trade losses against total profits of earlier accounting periods) F2or section 45F (relief for terminal trade losses) from so much of the company's total profits as derive from the income.

For the purpose of determining how much of those profits derive from the income, those profits are to be calculated on the basis that the income is the final amount to be added.
