GST: The Going Concern Exemption

Published on 01 Feb 2007 | Took place at City West Function Centre, West Perth, WA

The supply of a going concern is a GST-free supply provided the legislative requirements are satisfied. Whilst at first blush the exemption may seem straightforward, there are a number of practical difficulties facing parties seeking to obtain the exemption. The issues surrounding obtaining the exemption are complex and practitioners advising parties acquiring or disposing of a business or enterprise should be aware of all the issues.

The aim of this session was to provide practitioners with a thorough review of the going concern exemption.
