Legislation enabling an extra 15% tax on earnings on super balances above $3m is before Parliament.
While not a concern for the average worker, if enacted, those with significant property or other illiquid assets in
their superannuation fund are most at risk, for example farmers and business operators who own their business property in their self managed
superannuation fund (SMSF).
The issue is how the tax is calculated. The tax captures the growth in the balance of a member’s superannuation over the financial year
(allowing for contributions and withdrawals). It captures both:
If the member’s total super balance has decreased - the loss can be offset against future years.
The ATO will calculate the tax each year. Members with balances in excess of $3 million will be tested for the first time on 30 June 2026,
with the first notice of assessment expected to be issued to those impacted in the 2026-27 financial year.
If you are likely to be impacted by the impending new tax, it is important to speak to your financial adviser. While keeping assets within
superannuation will remain the best option for many, it’s important to ensure that you’re in the best possible position.
