Improve cash flow, encourage business growth, attract better talent and continue innovating within your industry using the R&D Tax Incentive and consideration of other Government Grants your business might be eligible for.
The Research and Development Tax Incentive is an Australian Government initiative supporting Australian businesses to create or develop new or improved products, systems and original solutions. Research and development (R&D) helps to boost competitiveness and improve productivity across the Australian economy, while the R&D Tax Incentive provides a targeted tax offset to encourage companies to engage in R&D in Australia.
Research and development involves conducting an experiment or trial to gain new knowledge. This knowledge is then used to direct the development of new or improved materials, products, devices, processes.
You do not have to be a scientist in a lab coat to be eligible; anyone making significant improvements or generating new knowledge in their field could be undertaking R&D.
Take our eligibility quiz to find out whether your business is eligible.
If you are an eligible company with a turnover of less than $20 million AUD, you could receive up to a 43.5% refundable offset through an R&D claim.
A non-refundable tax offset of 38.5% is also available for companies with an aggregate annual turnover of more than $20 million AUD.
