CGT
19.12.2008

It may be noted that there is a CGT exemption for compensation or damages “you” receive for any wrong or injury “you” suffer in “your” occupation (sec 118-37(1)(a) ITAA 1997).  There seems no reason why “you” would not include a company in this context or that the word “occupation” would cover a business carried on by a company (sec 4-5 ITAA 1997).
