How this was calculated

Start with gross salary of KSh 76,000.00.
Deduct items allowed before tax: NSSF KSh 4,560.00, SHIF KSh 2,090.00, Housing Levy KSh 1,140.00.
Taxable pay = KSh 68,210.00.
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 35,877.00 = KSh 10,763.10
Tax before relief = KSh 15,246.35.
Subtract personal relief (KSh 2,400.00) → PAYE = KSh 12,846.35.
Net salary = gross − PAYE − SHIF − NSSF − Housing Levy = KSh 55,363.65.

Your employer also pays NSSF (KSh 4,560), Housing Levy (KSh 1,140) and the NITA levy (KSh 50), so this salary costs them about KSh 81,750 a month.
