Section 1202 of the tax code allows eligible founders and early investors to exclude up to $15 million in capital gains from a business exit — entirely tax-free at the federal level. But the exclusion requires a C corporation structure established before the investment, and the window to qualify closes long before most owners think about selling. Updated by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in July 2025, the exclusion cap increased and the holding period shortened for newer issuances. This episode breaks down who qualifies, how stacking exclusions across trusts and family members can multiply the benefit, and what deliberate structure at formation means for the owners who get this right.
