[1] | On December 7, 2021 a duty rebate on the importation of capital goods was granted to the Company in terms of the Customs and Excise General Regulations of 2001. However, the customs officials at Forbes Border Post rejected a rebate on solar cables despite presentation of a valid rebate letter. An appeal was made to the Commissioner of Taxes seeking the rebate and the outcome of the appeal was unfavourable.
