So yours could also possibly be deducted off your profits if your broker provides you with documents for SARS

I want to keep Nasper, as u still have 75 % of Newco + Takealot ? Am I wrong ?
Correct, that is how I also read it. I was taught, first make your Investment decision, then, only then, do you look at tax implication. Do not let CGT be the start point, your investment 1st, then Tax. It is at this point Patrick starts getting upset and start shouting at me. .@jaDEB read the below article and maybe reconsider your strategy? It also explains the tax implication better
Go . . . . .
You take your Total Valued paid for your NPN Shares say you bought 100 at R 1000 total (imagine ), now you have 120 (new Quantity) bought at R 1000 total.
Please note I only have Standard 6 Lower grade maths.
The Newco shares will be pure Profit, i.e if you get R100,000 worth of Newco, that will be applicable to CGT as if you sold NPN.
That is my understanding and I based my decision on that.
In terms of the proposal, shareholders will receive new Naspers M-shares as a capitalisation issue, which do not have immediate tax liabilities. Capitalisation shares are exempt from dividend tax, but CGT become payable whenever the shares are sold
The circular states that the initial cost of these shares for the purposes of CGT will be deemed to be nil, meaning that the full value of the shares will attract CGT whenever a shareholder sells them. The M-shares are automatically replaced by NewCo shares, which is effectively seen as two separate transactions: the sale of M-shares and the purchase of NewCo shares.
I also will take Newco option on mine.
