Thinking of selling an asset in your SMSF? Don't let the tax office take more than its share:

• Held it over 12 months? You could score a 1/3 CGT discount

• Buying or selling with a related party below market value? That's a red flag for NALI, and a 45% tax hit

• Fully in the pension phase? Your gain could be completely tax-free

Most trustees know capital gains apply to their SMSF, but few realise how much the outcome depends on timing, structure, and paperwork. Get it right, and you could keep thousands more in your fund. 

We have broken it all down, step by step, in our latest blog post, "SMSF Capital Gains Tax: How Much Will Your Fund Pay?".Read the full post to find out exactly what you'd owe, walk through the calculation yourself, and check whether your fund is making any of the common mistakes that push up the final tax bill.
