How this was calculated

Start with gross salary of KSh 64,000.00.
Deduct items allowed before tax: NSSF KSh 3,840.00, SHIF KSh 1,760.00, Housing Levy KSh 960.00.
Taxable pay = KSh 57,440.00.
Apply the PAYE bands:
- 10% on KSh 24,000.00 = KSh 2,400.00
- 25% on KSh 8,333.00 = KSh 2,083.25
- 30% on KSh 25,107.00 = KSh 7,532.10
Tax before relief = KSh 12,015.35.
Subtract personal relief (KSh 2,400.00) → PAYE = KSh 9,615.35.
Net salary = gross − PAYE − SHIF − NSSF − Housing Levy = KSh 47,824.65.

Your employer also pays NSSF (KSh 3,840), Housing Levy (KSh 960) and the NITA levy (KSh 50), so this salary costs them about KSh 68,850 a month.
