Cadbury Schweppes Plc and Another v Williams (Her Majesty’s Inspector of Taxes): CA 24 May 2006

The taxpayer made arrangement for the sale of securities in the form of loan notes with accrued income. It appealed a decision denying to the arrangement treatment of the full sum as capital.
Held: The appeal failed. The agreements provided for irregular repayments, they did so with an apparent standard interest rate. The agreements fell to be taxed under the regime established rather by section 719(9), the court considering that they failed to meet fully the condition that they carry interest at a fixed rate. (Sir Peter Gibson dissenting)
