- July 1996 an investor subscribes £100,000 for 100,000 shares in an EIS company. Income Tax relief of £20,000 is given in 1996-97 as the lower rate of tax is 20%.
- January 2000 the investor sells 25,000 shares for £10,000. Income Tax relief of £2,000 is withdrawn, (£10,000 x 20%), see VCM26070 example 2. Income Tax relief of £3,000 attributable to the shares sold is not withdrawn. The allowable loss is calculated as below.

| Less cost | £25,000 | |
| Reduced by Income Tax relief* | £3,000 | £22,000 |
| Allowable loss | £(12,000) |
