TAX ADVISORY

Initial Public Offering

Stay ahead, stay protected

IPO tax planning & restructuring


Preparing for an Initial Public Offering (IPO) requires more than financial readiness, it demands strategic tax planning to ensure a smooth and compliant listing. We support businesses through IPO restructuring, tax assessments and due diligence to identify and mitigate risks. With Capital Gains Tax (CGT) now applicable to unlisted share disposals, IPO planning must address new exposures and reporting obligations.

Our approach helps you avoid delays, meet regulatory expectations and enhance investor confidence.

Our services include


  • Tax-efficient corporate restructuring for IPO
  • Real property gains tax, capital gains tax and stamp duty assessment for IPO restructuring
  • Tax due diligence on the Listing Group
