An analysis of the general anti-avoidance rule in South Africa and a comparison with foreign anti-avoidance provisions

Satumba, Rutendo Margret 10 September 2012 (has links)
The structure of the tax system is important in developing a workable environment capable of diminishing both the extent and the opportunities for tax avoidance and evasion. Generally, taxpayers dislike paying taxes, which results in them colluding against the government and this impacts negatively on the economy. Efforts by the legislature to curb tax avoidance with the introduction of various forms of antiavoidance techniques have, however, contributed to the complexity of tax legislation. The complexity of tax legislation, as well as higher marginal tax rates, leads to higher incidences of tax avoidance, and at times, tax evasion. Uncertainty, complexity and confusion also provide the breeding ground for tax avoidance and evasion. The South African GAAR is a concoction of GAARs from different parts of the world. This is in a bid to ensure that anti-avoidance techniques in South Africa are in line with international trends on anti-avoidance legislation. But has this purpose really been achieved? A comparative study of the South African anti-avoidance legislation with that of other countries is therefore necessary to determine how it stands on a global scale as a deterrent to tax avoidance. For the purposes of this paper, only the Canadian, Australian and United Kingdom GAARs will be discussed. Unfortunately, it seems no jurisdiction has found a perfect solution, and the use of GAARs in varying forms has had mixed success.

A comparison of the application of the provisions in s 80A-80L with those of s 103(1) of the Income Tax Act 58 of 1962

Ho, Suk-ching 10 March 2014 (has links)
Tax avoidance is a key international tax issue. Combating tax avoidance has been placed high on the agenda by the South African Revenue Service (SARS) and other tax authorities in the world. This research report will examine how the judgments of certain South African cases would have been different if the anti-avoidance provisions in sections 80A to 80L were applied instead of those in section 103(1).
