The Commercial and Industrial Property Tax (CIPT): Navigating the new reform

Join us for a discussion on Victoria's latest changes in property tax law, as we navigate the transition from stamp duty to an annual property tax for commercial and industrial properties in Victoria. 

These changes will be applied on an individual property basis, having regard to transactions in respect of commercial and industrial properties, from 1 July 2024. 

Practitioners, particularly those dealing with property transfers and commercial work, need to understand the changes, nuances and options to advise their clients going forward. 

This webinar, presented by James Hamblin, Special Counsel, and Melinda Waduge, Senior Associate, MinterEllison, will explain the changes, and identify some of the key issues that practitioners need to understand when advising clients. The webinar will include time to ask questions and discuss some practical suggestions to help manage the changes.

Live online, Wednesday 22 May from 12pm - 1pm 

Presented by James Hamblin, Special Counsel and Melinda Waduge, Senior Associate, MinterEllison 

CPD Points - 1 Substantive Law

**Please note this webinar will be recorded and available on the LPLC website for later viewing.
