Can I avoid capital gains tax?

Yes, you can.

The business retirement exemption provides an exemption for capital gains tax up to a lifetime limit of $500,000 from the sale of an active business.

If the recipient is under 55, the amount must be paid into a super fund.

Once the funds are in the super fund they will be taxed at a rate of 15%.
