Tax on Super Earnings

Tax on Super Earnings. 


From 1 July 2025, a proposed new tax will apply to future earnings on super balances above $3m.  


The additional tax is not yet law, so there is no need to act right now – if enacted, the new tax will impact on earnings from 1 July 2025. However, planning will be essential to risk protect your position.

If you hold significant property or other illiquid assets in your superannuation fund, for example a farm or commercial property, it is the increase in value that is pivotal. The potential tax on these assets will be a key factor in determining whether they remain a viable asset of your superannuation fund (but not the only reason).  

Understanding your superannuation starts here. 


For super balances nearing or exceeding $3m, seek advice for your best options in understanding your tax obligations.
