Judgment

Reported
Whether additional tax and 200% penalties were justified where SARS misread accounting records and taxpayer provided explanatory evidence.
Tax — Income Tax and VAT — burden of proof on taxpayer in appeals (s 82 IT Act; s 37 VAT Act) — SARS’ assessments unsustainable where based on misconstruction of accounting system — s 16(2)(c) does not import supplier declaration requirement from s 20(8) — internal transfers, demo stock and cancelled trade‑ins not taxable supplies — penalties require proof of intent to evade (s 76 IT Act; s 60 VAT Act).
Reported
Deeming asylum claims abandoned for late visa renewal violates non-refoulement, dignity, children’s rights and is irrational.
* Refugee law — Asylum procedure — Visa renewal — Whether automatic deeming of abandonment for failure to renew violates non-refoulement and international refugee obligations. * Constitutional law — Rights infringed — dignity, just administrative action, children’s rights, freedom and security of the person, life. * Administrative law — Procedural fairness — Standing Committee endorsement and absence of merits adjudication. * Rationality review — Whether legislative measure bears rational connection to legitimate governmental aims (backlog reduction, deterrence).
Reported
Services supplied in an airport duty‑free departure zone are standard‑rated VAT; presence in South Africa bars s 11(2)(l) zero‑rating.
Value‑Added Tax – s 7(1)(a) standard‑rate liability; s 11(2)(l) zero‑rating to non‑residents – presence in Republic (s 11(2)(l)(iii)) precludes zero‑rating; s 11(2)(l)(ii)(aa) does not override (iii); s 11(2)(g) inapplicable to banknotes; s 72 rulings concern administrative application to goods, not exemption from VAT.
