Capital Gains Tax in Malaysia

published on 5 June 2024 | reading time approx. 1 minute

Effective 1 January 2024, the Malaysian Government has implemented Capital Gains Tax (CGT) in Malaysia. The introduction of CGT not only increases the country’s revenue collection, but also seeks to minimize the gaps between the different income groups by ensuring fair treatment between taxation of business profits and capital gains.

In the online seminar dedicated to this topic, our colleagues Chiu Yen Lim, Kartika Rosita and Priya Selvanathan comprehensively highlight the key concepts on CGT for you:

Who is chargeable to CGT
When is the effective date
Type of disposal impacted by CGT
Available exemptions

As a result, you will be provided with a sound understanding of CGT in Malaysia and how this will affect you and your business from a practical point of view.
