This strong revenue performance was supported by increased collections of corporate income tax, and provisional tax.
However, VAT and personal income tax refund payments were lower than expected.
SARS remains optimistic about achieving the revised tax revenue estimate of over R1.8bn for the 2024/2025 fiscal year.
