The RPGT Handbook, Malaysia

Malaysia’s real property gains tax (RPGT) is somewhat unique in that it is neither a full capital gains tax nor a true short term gains tax. As the title implies, the intention at the inception of the tax was to capture only capital gains from the disposal of real properties, with an emphasis on short term gains. As RPGT has evolved over the years, its scope has widened in some key areas.
