I have a client they already run a Ltd company (Co. A), now would like me to set up another Ltd company to deal with a new income stream.(Co. B).
Company A is owned 75% between husband and Wife(say Bob and Sue) and 25% by an unrealted director shareholder(say Fred). Company B will be owned 50:50 by Bob and Fred.
I have already advised about effects of associated company on tax bands etc.
My query is whether company A and B are in a group for trade losses as they are under common control. Or does there have to be a Parent company above A and B for a group to be formed?

GROUP!
A group for Corporation Tax Group Relief purposes is a parent company and its 75% subsidiaries.
Prima facie A and B aren't associated either, since they don't appear to be under common control on the information given.
