Goods Used for Personal Purposes
In cases where goods are purchased by the company and Input Tax has been deducted thereon,
but the goods are subsequently used by employees or company owners for personal use or
benefit, this constitutes a Nominal Supply. The purpose of this rule is to prevent the deduction of
Input Tax on goods used by individuals for personal purposes (including the owner).
If the Taxable Person wishes to dispose of an asset or destroy assets forming part of its business
activity, for example, destroying damaged inventory or disposing of unused food, this does not
constitute personal use and therefore does not give rise to a Nominal Supply.
