Tax Law [2024] ZAGPPHC 254

Hi Tec Nuts (Pty) Ltd and Another v CSARS (34051/2021)

Hi Tec Nuts (Pty) Ltd and Another v CSARS (34051/2021) [2024] ZAGPPHC 254 (11 March 2024)

The court found that the Customs and Excise Tariff, specifically heading 73.18 and its sub-headings, contemplates that 'Nuts' includes all nuts, whether tapped or untapped. The explanatory note to 73.18 clarifies that nuts, whether or not threaded or tapped, are included under 'Threaded articles'. Rule 2(a)(i) of the Harmonized System supports this interpretation, as untapped nuts possess the essential character of a nut. There is no ambiguity in the tariff language that would justify classifying untapped nuts under 'Non-threaded articles'. Therefore, the Commissioner's classification of the…

The Council failed to provide specific details of alleged non-compliance with the Act, regulations, or licence conditions, and Comair had produced a valid operating certificate. The Council's reliance on changes in shareholding and prescribed pe…

Kingshaven Homeowners' Association v Botha and Others (6220/2019)

Kingshaven Homeowners' Association v Botha and Others (6220/2019) [2020] ZAWCHC 92; 2023 (4) SA 187 (WCC) (4 September 2020)

The court held that the adjudicator under the CSOS Act was correct in refusing to grant the interdict sought by the applicant, as such relief was not provided for in section 39 of the Act and thus beyond the adjudicator's jurisdiction. The appeal under section 57 was dismissed as it was not competent. The court found that the trustees of the applicant association had properly authorised the institution of proceedings, either initially or by subsequent ratification. There was no waiver of the parking rules, as the constitution did not permit waiver without member approval, and the evidence did…
