Does the CGT TFA period coincide with the Calendar year ?

[Usjes]

Hi,

I have shares that have increased in value and would like to minimize my tax. So I would like the split the gain over two years to avail of 2x the €1250 TFA. So I'm wondering does the TFA for year X apply to gains made from Jan yearX to Dec yearX or is it some other period, for example April yearX to March year(X+1) ? If it is April or something else instead of Jan then I could sell some of the shares on March 30th and the remainder on April 1st to get 2x TFA. Does anyone know what the dates are ?

Thanks,

Usjes
