    I am wandering what CGT I would be liable for?

    Bought a property, rented out for 6months, moved in and has been PPOR ever since. Looking at a ratio 6months/30months. The main question is, am I able to get a evaluation for the date when I moved in, and use the difference from start for CGT with the rest CGT free or must it be portioned by ratio? Reasoning behind q is that I done a renovation which i believe added most of capital increase whilst it was a PPOR

    Thanks
    Nathan

    No, because you moved into an investment property so CGT will depend on a percentage basis. see s.118-185 ITAA97
    INCOME TAX ASSESSMENT ACT 1997 - SECT 118.185 Partial exemption where dwelling was your main residence during part only of ownership period
