All parties have an accounting period of 12 months to 31 December 2011, and the percentages shown remain constant throughout the accounting period.
H, a holding company, has the following trading subsidiaries shown above: Q, R, S, and T..
W, X, Y, and a bank Z are members of the consortium. Bank Z holds the shares in H on trading account. Each of the four companies in the consortium has ample profits to absorb any relief surrendered by the holding company and its subsidiaries.

Under CTA10/S153(3) there is no relief due to any of the members of the consortium for S’s loss because S is not a 90% trading subsidiary of H (CTM80535).
Z is not entitled to any relief (CTA10/S132(4) - CTM80530) because a profit on the sale of the shares it holds in H would be a trading receipt.
