Is money received from my mom (paid into my bank account via cellphone banking) taxable?

Posted 26 June 2013

Sometimes my mother pays 5000 rand or 4000 rand in my bank account. This happens when I cannot afford some things and she wants to help me.

No this won't be taxable as it is considered support and not income earned.
