About the Webinar

The treatment of GST of supplies can be fraught, especially when GST treatment requires the agreement of both parties. Disputes can arise in the event of underpaid GST, including who is liable, after the transaction has undergone a closer look from the ATO. This session looks at the contract clauses that affect GST to assist in ensuring the transacting parties are fully informed of and protected from the potential GST outcomes, including:

  • GST treatment of business and property transactions and key contractual risks
  • Elements of an effective GST clause in a contract
  • Managing GST after the fact
  • Specialist GST clauses
  • Apportionment for mixed supplies
  • Obtaining certainty: ATO guidance and private ruling requests
  • Case studies
