How RPGT is calculated

RPGT is charged on the gain you make when selling: the selling price minus selling costs, less the purchase price and purchase costs. Individuals get an exemption of RM10,000 or 10% of the gain, whichever is higher. The rate depends on how long you held the property and whether you are a citizen, a company or a foreigner.
