Klerksdorp Record, Ventersdorp - A company called CJC Precast (Pty) Ltd was summoned after failing to pay tax for five years.
According to the NPA, the company was fined R32 500 by the Ventersdorp Magistrate’s Court last week.
The company was represented by its director, John Christopher Conroy (60). The company faced 65 counts of contravening the Tax Administration Act: failure to submit tax returns.
“Between February 2019 and June 2024, the company failed to submit both VAT and Company Income Tax (CIT) returns. This was despite multiple telephonic reminders from SARS, as well as written notices,” said Sivenathi Gunya, communications officer: NW of the National Prosecuting Authority.
After several court appearances, Conroy elected to pay an admission of guilt fine totalling R32 500 for failing to fulfil his tax obligations.
“This matter forms part of the broader Honey Badger Project, a key initiative aimed at holding individuals and companies accountable for tax non-compliance,” said Gunya.
