DEFINITION of 'Gain' A gain is an increase in the value of an asset or property. A gain arises if the selling or disposition price of the asset is higher than the original purchase or acquisition price. A gross gain refers to the positive difference between the sale price and the purchase price. A net gain takes transaction costs, such as commissions and other expenses into consideration. A gain may either be realized, i.e., when the asset is sold or unrealized, i.e., a paper gain. Another important distinction of a gain is that it may be taxable or non-taxable.
