This paper covers:

  • GST-free treatment of the supply of a going concern (which is fraught with danger)
  • does the sale of a business form part of your GST turnover? What are the implications of this?
  • why would vendors want to apply the "supply of a going concern" provisions?
  • what if you supply things other than those that are necessary for the enterprise to continue? Will they be GST-free as well?
  • what is the GST position if the purchaser assumes liabilities as a condition of sale?
  • what if you "supply" other things as part of the sale? How are they treated for GST purposes?
  • stamp duty issues for the purchaser, especially in the context of the Duties Bill 2007 which is expected to be implemented from 1 July 2008.
