About this tool

Capital gain is the difference between the acquisition (purchase) cost and the disposal (sale) price of a property or certain rights (Income Tax Law, repeated art. 80). For real estate, a sale within 5 years of acquisition is taxable; after 5 years no capital gains tax arises.

To prevent inflation from inflating the gain, the purchase cost is indexed by PPI (Yİ-ÜFE, domestic producer price index). Indexation applies only if the index increase is 10% or more. This tool computes the indexation rate automatically from your purchase and sale dates using the TÜİK PPI table (based on the month before acquisition and before sale).

After deducting the indexed cost and selling expenses to find the gain, the 2026 exemption of ₺150,000 (Communiqué No. 332; for property and rights) is applied. The remaining base is subject to the progressive income tax schedule. This exemption does not apply to securities (e.g. shares); work with your accountant for the declaration.
