Full Answer

A.1 July 2025✓ Correct
For companies that are not 'large', Corporation Tax is due 9 months and 1 day after the end of the accounting period. 30 September 2024 + 9 months = 30 June 2025. Adding 1 day gives 1 July 2025.

Confusing the payment deadline (9 months and 1 day) with the filing deadline (12 months).
