I'm a little confused about the rollover of anytime data on the Telkom Fixed LTE packages. Wherever I look it either says that rollover is 60 or 61 days.

Now, that's a bit ambiguous. At first glance it appears that you get 2 months data rollover, but it doesn't mention whether or not that includes or excludes the month that it was allocated.

So is 61 days just a sneaky method of Telkom of saying the data rolls over for one extra month after it was allocated?

Or does the anytime data actually rollover for 2 months (61 days) after the the month in which it was allocated?

Would appreciate it if someone could shed some light on this.

The discrepancy is probably working on average days in a two month period. Most of the time they are 30 and 31 days back to back, though people usually treat 60 days as two months as well.

Generally the actual program logic works on actual month dates, so I think you should be fine working on 2 months.

Sure, but my confusion is whether the data rolls over for one month or two.

For example if the data is allocated in November, will it rollover to December and January? Or just for the month of December?

To me that's the difference between a one month rollover, and a two month rollover.

Regular data (month to month) rolls over for 30 days (that's one month) and topups will roll over for 60 days from purchase. In that case it won't be from month to month, but will be from date of purchase. Should be exactly 60 days, not based on the number of days in the month - sorry if my previous post was a bit confusing.
