Quick question re business miles and tax year

[DannyF1966]

Ok, so the business mile rate decreases once you've done 10,000 miles in a tax year, but is that tax year April to April or is it your own company's tax year?

I set up my company in August and I've done about 2500 business miles so far, but looking at a new contract further away which will bump up the miles. Does the clock reset on April 6th or does it vary from ltd to ltd?

Cheers!
