Hi,
I have a question regarding dividend tax.
If I declared a dividend on 23 March 2009 (Ex-Date) and Pay Date was 30th March 2009. Say a cheque to the shareholder was written, but it was banked by the shareholder on 30th April 2009. Which tax year does the income fall under for the receipient? Is it taxed on an accrual or payment basis in terms of personal income tax on the receipient.
Thanks in advance for your help.
