• a non-resident company carrying on a trade through a UK permanent establishment, see CG42100+
• a company leaving a group and taking with it assets transferred to it by other group members in the previous 6 years, see CG45400+
• appropriations to and from trading stock, see CG67900P
• a person becoming absolutely entitled to any settled property as against trustees, see CG37000+
