If you've sold a property within a year of purchase and incurred construction costs, you can likely claim these expenses when calculating your capital gains tax. While you don't need to attach receipts to your tax return, it's essential to keep all bills and payment records. These documents will be required if HMRC asks for proof of your expenses.

So my property is in capital gain tax so can I claim cost of construction as expenses in capital gain coloumn. Is their any documents required to show the expenses in it return
