A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999

Chapter 4 - The special rules  

Part 4-1 - Special rules mainly about particular ways entities are organised  

Note:

The special rules in this Part mainly modify the operation of Part 2-2 so far as that Part deals with liability for GST and entitlement to input tax credits, but the special rules also affect other aspects of Part 2-2 and the other Parts of Chapter 2 .

Division 48 - GST groups  

48-1   What this Division is about  


Companies within a 90% owned group, and in some cases other entities (such as non-profit bodies), can form a GST group. One member of the group then deals with all the GST liabilities and entitlements (except for GST on most taxable importations) of the group, and (in most cases) intra-group transactions are excluded from the GST.

Note:

Provisions for members of GST groups apply for the wine equalisation tax (see Subdivision 21-B of the Wine Tax Act) and the luxury car tax (see Subdivision 16-A of the A New Tax System (Luxury Car Tax) Act 1999 ).
