Sale of Property

If you have sold any property in last financial year whether it’s taxable or not this is what we are going to discuss. If the property is owned by non-individual can be company, can be trust, can be superfund. So if it is owned by non-individual then it is taxable. You have to pay tax based on the rates but what happens if it is owned by individuals. If any individual may be husband wife together maybe two or three or four people together as a partnership or even a single person owns that property in his or her name and that property sold in last financial year will that be taxable or will that be tax free? Well it depends if that property is used as PPR. PPR means personal place of residence so it has never been rented out and you know person has always lived in that property and he sold. Let’s say he bought for $100,000 about you know 20 years back and now he sold that property for 2 million or you know whatever price. Will that be taxable? No, it won’t be taxable because he has always lived in that property and it is personal place of residence so irrespective of the amount that capital gain is tax free that is not taxable.

On the other hand if it is an investment property if he has received rent from that property then it will be taxable. As you can see it will be taxable, now it depends if it is long term or short term. If the property was held more than 12 months then it will be a long term capital gain. If the property is held for less than 12 months then it will be a short-term capital gain.
