- the capital gains component of the SMSF's share of a distribution from a partnership
- capital gains made by the SMSF from a forestry managed investment scheme (see Forestry managed investment schemes).

Non-arm's-length capital gains
A net capital gain from the sale of an asset by the SMSF is non-arm's-length income if, for example, the asset:
- was sold to a related party for more than the asset’s market value, or
- was originally acquired from a related party for less than the asset’s market value.
Complying SMSFs do not include non-arm's-length net capital gains at A. Show these at Non-arm's-length income items U2 or U3.
To calculate the SMSF’s net capital gain, see Capital gains tax.
