Makhadzi reportedly denies the tax consultant that saved her from SARS debt his due payment for the work done.

Weeks ago, it was revealed that the Limpopo-born star owners the South African Revenue Services over R6 million, but it was later reduced to over R2 million, thanks to a Joburg-based tax consultant.


The consultant charged over R400 00 for the help, but the musician has reportedly snubbed the consultant.

Sunday World reports that the STT Group Holding filed papers in the Joburg high court last week to obtain a judgment against Makhadzi for failing to remit payment.

“The defendant had a tax debt with the South African Revenue Services (Sars) to an amount of R6 602 287.40 (Six million six hundred and two thousand two hundred and eighty-seven rands and forty cents),” read the court papers.

After Makhadzi’s tax bill was slashed, said STT Group Holding, they agreed that the company would receive a payment of over R385 000 compromise success fee, which is 10% of the compromise debt.

“The plaintiff rendered the professional services and the plaintiff succeeded in having the defendant’s debt reduced to R2 750 00.00 (Two million seven hundred and fifty thousand rands),” read the papers.

The company said it then issued an invoice to Makhadzi for over R443 000 for payment on August 23, this includes the value-added tax of over R57 000.

Makhadzi made a payment of R100 000 to the company on August 31 and another R50 000 on September 5.

“The defendant undertook to pay the balance and then failed and, or neglected to pay the balance, which amounts to R293 013.03 (Two hundred and ninety-three thousand and thirteen rand and five cents), which is now due, and payable,” read the papers.

The company dragged the music star for her refusal to settle the payment.
