        the area of the land immediately under the dwelling;

      3. (iii)

      the CGT event involves that ownership interest not being renewed by that agency.

118‑255Maximum exempt area

Your maximum exempt area for the *CGT event and the *dwelling is 2 hectares less the amount worked out as follows:

Method statement

Step 1. Identify each earlier *CGT event (if any) that:

  1. (a)

    happened in relation to land that was part of the *dwelling’s *adjacent land at the time of the earlier CGT event, or happened in relation to your *ownership interest in that land at that time; and

  2. (b)

    resulted in you losing rights to the substantial use and enjoyment of that land either completely or for at least 10 years;

for which you made a *capital gain or *capital loss that was wholly or partly disregarded because of the application of subsection 118‑245(2).

Step 2. For each earlier *CGT event covered by step 1, work out the area of the exempt land for that application of subsection 118‑245(2).

Step 3. Add the results from step 2 to the area of the land immediately under the *dwelling.

118‑260Partial exemption rules

  1. (1)

    If section 118‑245 applies to a *CGT event, the amount of the *capital gain or *capital loss that you would have made apart from this section from the CGT event is increased by an amount that is reasonable having regard to the following:

    1. (a)

      the extent that the *dwelling was not a main residence for the relevant period;

    2. (b)

      the extent that the dwelling was used for the *purpose of producing assessable income during the relevant period.

  2. (2)

    In determining what is a reasonable increase, have regard to the principles in this Subdivision applicable to *CGT events happening in relation to a *dwelling or your *ownership interest in it.

118‑265Extension to adjacent structures

Sections 118‑245 to 118‑260 (with appropriate modifications) apply to an *adjacent structure of a flat or home unit in a corresponding way to the way they apply to a *dwelling’s *adjacent land.
