The benefit of the Pty Ltd company is the limited liability. Limited to
the share capital you put into it ($1 shelf company), not everything
that you own and earn. and a slightly better tax rate depending what you
earn, maybe some more deductions for tax, but offset with higher
administrative/compliance costs and greater complexity/paperwork.

You definitely don't need a Pty Ltd to claim for business related expenses!
