I have just created a Pty (Ltd), in May. I only made bank account in June, and spent time setting up other things.

I had a brief consultation with a professional accountant who advised to lodge no return required form, and the closest I've found is this Non-lodgement Advice. But, its all seems for private individuals - as it asks for my date of birth, name, etc.. Which doesn't look like a company targed form . Doc NAT 2586-06.2025 .

So how then, or where do I get correct form?

A nil company tax return still needs to be lodged.

Only individuals can lodge a Non-Lodgement Advice.

hello

"nil company tax return" : is this another special form, or is this income tax return with zero (0) income reported, under ATO online account?

Hi @machinstinct,

Nope, not a separate or special form.

It’s the standard company tax return where you'd report zero income and expenses for the financial year, if relevant.

You still lodge it through your ATO Online Services for businesses or through your tax agent, just like any other return.
