Summary
Labors budget introduces a significant change to capital gains tax, eliminating the fifty percent discount on asset gains. Starting July 1, 2027, a new cost-base indexation method will adjust purchase prices for inflation, potentially altering tax liabilities based on inflation rates and asset growth. Investors like Jan, who bought properties before the cutoff, may face complex calculations due to mixed rules. Use online calculators to understand your potential tax impact before the new rules take effect. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
