Jimmy Carr has been handed a huge tax bill after his wealth surged by more than £3m thanks to launching his International stand-up tour and the success of his Netflix special.
The comedian took his Laughs Funny show across the UK, Ireland, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and North America and also released his fourth Netflix special, Natural Born Killer.
As a result Jimmy Carr has seen funds received through one of his companies, R&I Futures Limited, jump from £5.2m to £8.3m in the 12 months to 30 September, 2024.
While the firm’s creditors increased in the year from £272,931 to £1.9m, the amount the business had in the bank at the end of the 12 months surged from £5.2m to £9.4m.
Thanks to debtors owing £415,972 to the firm and investments of £433,193, Jimmy Carr’s company’s current assets grew in the year from £5.4m to £10.2m.
However, Jimmy Carr’s company was handed a £1.2m tax bill thanks to its increased earnings, up from the £269,877 it paid out in the prior year.
The figures have been revealed in new accounts filed with Companies House.
