Joburg UDZ demarcation
Area excluded from UDZArea excluded from UDZArea excluded from UDZArea excluded from UDZArea excluded from UDZArea excluded from UDZ
• Approved area commonly known as the Inner City
Inner City Locations within UDZ
• The core CBD and high density residential areas of the inner city.
• Braamfontein, Newtown, Hillbrow, Berea, Yeoville, Bellevue, Troyeville, Bertrams, Ellis Park, Fordsburg, Pageview, Benrose and a number of other areas graphically depicted in the Map
Eligibility • Property owners of commercial, industrial and
residential buildings located in Inner City who either:– Substantially refurbish their premises or– Demolish their buildings and construct new
ones on the premises• Property owners living on the premises who
refurbish or construct granny flats or similar facilities for income generation
Computation of Deductible Amounts
• Annual tax deductions or accelerated depreciation amounts are computed as follows:– For refurbishment of existing buildings, 5-
year straight line depreciation or 20% of investment annually
– For new buildings, 20% of investment in yr 1, and 5% in 16 years subsequent (= 17 years amortization)
Computations• Deduction can be made on all taxable income
including income from sources other than buildings in UDZ, e.g. Salaries from other employment, extraordinary income
• Applicable in cases where improvement or new construction commenced on or after proclamation date
Costs covered under UDZ tax incentive
• Construction costs• Demolition of existing buildings• Permanent fixtures adjoining the site• Water, power, sewage,drainage, waste disposal• Access or parking• Security (fence, cameras, surveillance
equipment, etc.)• Sidewalks• Landscaping as part of development• Painting
Benefits to Private Investors
• Highly innovative accelerated depreciation deductible from all taxable income (including personal income tax).
• Corporate and small investors can now reclaim their income generating-buildings which might have declined or degenerated, renovate them and access the Incentive
• New prospective investors can also buy buildings for income-generating purposes, to renovate or replace them with new structures and still derive the tax benefit
Example: Comparative scenarios: With and without
UDZ tax Benefit: Assumptions• Refurbishment investment = R2.0mio• 4 blocks of flats comprised of 10 units
each, I.e.,40 units. Rental at R2,000 per month for 12 months
• Income before depreciation & tax = R R476,000.00
• Depreciation of R2.0 million refurbishment investment at 20% per annum for 5 years
• 30% Company Tax
Results• Income in both Scenarios = R 960,000.00• 20% annual depreciation = R 400,000.00• Taxable income without udz incentive = R
476,000.00• Taxable Income with udz incentive = R
76,000.00• Tax expense without udz incentive = R
142,800.00 and R 22,800.00 with udz incentive• Net tax saving with udz incentive =R 120,000.00
