If the total retirement fund income on the IRP5 is R103 500. What will be the maximum allowable deduction for pension fund contribution

It will be 7,5% of R103,500 = R7,762.50 (limited to the actual contributions you made).
Please note, this is for the 2016 tax year. The rules have changed from 1 March 2016 and will be different for 2017 tax year.
