The Baseline Civil Contractors case shows that if you get your tax position wrong at the start, you may not be able to fix it later.

Once you’ve challenged a tax assessment, you can’t later change your argument to focus on a completely different issue. As Seelan Muthayan, Head of Indirect Tax at BDO, explains, missing key points during the objection stage can limit what can be addressed later.

Getting your position right early matters. If not, you could lose the chance to correct it, even if you realise the mistake.

At BDO, we help businesses elevate their approach to tax from the start, increasing their chances of a successful outcome.

The diesel refund is now at 100% for certain activities in farming, forestry and mining from April 2026.

This gives businesses the chance to recover more, but it comes with strict requirements. It’s important to make sure your documentation is complete and up to date.

Claims must be supported by accurate records, says Kagiso Nonyane, Senior Manager: Indirect Tax at BDO.

At BDO, we help businesses elevate how they manage their claims, with the right processes and checks in place.

The difference in profitability between mid-tier banks is becoming more noticeable.

Changes in interest rates, funding costs and how banks earn income are shaping performance across the sector. Some are adapting quickly, while others are feeling the pressure.

This is starting to influence how banks compete, where they focus and how they grow.

Our latest mid-tier banking report unpacks what’s working, what’s not and what’s changing. Read the full report: https://indd.adobe.com/view/130dd077-2320-42b9-ac67-4430f8e8effd

A culture of curiosity drives growth. In a world shaped by rapid technological change and increasing complexity, it is no longer a nice to have. It is a strategic imperative.

Curiosity fuels innovation, sharpens thinking and strengthens decision-making. But it cannot thrive in isolation. It requires psychological safety, an environment where questions are encouraged, ideas are respected and learning from mistakes is part of how we grow.

When we create that space, we elevate potential across our teams.

Our 2026 International Women’s Day report explores why curiosity matters and how it contributes to stronger, more inclusive leadership.

The recent Budget Speech brought few changes to corporate tax.

For many businesses, that stability is welcome. It creates more certainty when planning, investing and managing cash flow.

But tax still affects everyday decisions. It should not only be something organisations think about at the end of the year.

At BDO, we help organisations elevate how they approach tax so it supports better planning and everyday decision-making.

Our Tax Guide breaks down the key announcements from the Budget Speech and what they may mean for your organisation.

Energy projects don’t only depend on engineering. They also depend on understanding the intricacies of regulation and approval processes.

Approvals, regulation and decision-making can shape whether a project moves forward or loses momentum. Even the smallest omission or misstep can jeopardise progress.

That’s why governance matters.

At BDO, we help organisations elevate project delivery by improving oversight, decision processes and project controls.

Read our South Africa Renewable Energy Sector report to see what is slowing projects down and what helps them move forward: https://indd.adobe.com/view/ec458d23-2eeb-4d32-8c90-3a4104331f7e

The real tax risk this season is getting too comfortable. Filing season may still be a few months away, but now is the right time to check that tax processes and data are still in order.

SARS now uses more automated and data-driven checks. Information is reviewed earlier and more closely, leaving less room for mistakes. Past compliance does not always guarantee the same outcome this year.

At BDO, we help organisations elevate how they approach tax so they are ready before filing deadlines arrive.

Many compliant businesses are being caught by provisional tax penalties.

In many cases, the problem is not tax behaviour. It is how income is estimated during the year, starting with the mid-year provisional tax estimate.

If estimates are too low, the gap between provisional tax payments and the final results can trigger penalties.

This means provisional tax is no longer just a compliance task. It requires better planning and regular review during the year.

At BDO, we help organisations elevate how provisional tax is planned so estimates are stronger and surprises are reduced later on.
