Capital commitments are largely attributable to purchases of property, plant and equipment and software (included in intangible assets).    
Included in commitments against authorised capital expenditure and authorised capital expenditure not yet contracted for is R1,898 million (31 March 2012: R546 million) and R563 million (31 March 2012: R1,160 million), respectively, which relates to Telkom Mobile.    
Management expects these commitments to be financed from internally-generated cash and borrowings.
