  • SIP (Share Incentive Scheme) shares sold - self assessment

    After leaving my previous employer my SIP shares were sold on my behalf. These were a combination of Free Shares, Matching Shares and Shares that I had bought through the SIP plan as salary sacrifice. When the shares were sold I had had them for just under 5 years. The shares were awarded / bought at different values throughout the scheme, but as I understand it TAX and NIC is calculated on the lower of the values (value when awarded vs value when sold). Where can we include this calculation in the Sef Assessment? Or do we simply input the total value received from the sale of the shares?
