Second‑hand goods
18 Second‑hand goods
Division 66 of the GST Act applies to second‑hand goods you acquired before 1 July 2000 only if:
you held them at the start of that day for the purposes of sale or exchange (but not for manufacture) in the ordinary course of business; and
you had not previously held them for any other purpose.
However, if:
because of this section, you are entitled to an input tax credit for an acquisition of second‑hand goods; and
the *consideration for the acquisition was $300 or less;
the input tax credit is treated as though it were an input tax credit attributable to any one tax period of your choice.
This section does not apply to second‑hand goods in respect of which you are entitled to a special credit under former section 16.
