Transferring primary residence to a subrogated third party may be exempt from Personal Income Tax

A query was raised regarding whether the capital gain arising from transferring a primary residence to settle a mortgage debt is exempt if the creditor is a third party that has subrogated into the credit. The Directorate General for Taxes (DGT) ruled that the exemption applies provided all legal requirements are met, even if the creditor is not the original lending institution.
