Mr A owns listed shares pregnant with gains and held through a platform , Mrs A has CGT losses. Mr A wants to gift the shares to Mrs A, who would then sell them. What is the simplest paperwork which would convince HMRC that the gift preceded the sale?

Listed company ?
Her name needs to magically appear on the register.
Send in a share transfer form. A deed of gift prepared by a solicitor would be wise.
