Do you need to include an assessed capital loss in your tax return?

Posted 23 October 2014

I incurred an assessed capital loss for the 2013 tax year through sale of shares. For 2014, I made a capital gain also via shares. I read that we don't need to include the R30000 annual exclusion in our ITR12 as SARS will include this automatically. Does the same apply for the assessed capital loss? I can't find any place for it in SARS eFiling.

SARS will realise the loss that was made and apply the exclusion.
