If I have a R3000 petrol allowance added to my salary, will the provident fund contribution be deducted as well, e. G. If on 10% contribution, then the net income before tax will be R2700?

With the new legislation from 1 March 2016, you will be able to deduct your provident fund contribution up to 27,5% of your taxable income (i.e. salary plus petrol allowance).
