How this was calculated

Start with gross salary of KSh 95,000.00.
Deduct items allowed before tax: NSSF KSh 5,700.00, SHIF KSh 2,612.50, Housing Levy KSh 1,425.00.
Taxable pay = KSh 85,262.50.
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 52,929.50 = KSh 15,878.85
Tax before relief = KSh 20,362.10.
Subtract personal relief (KSh 2,400.00) → PAYE = KSh 17,962.10.
Net salary = gross − PAYE − SHIF − NSSF − Housing Levy = KSh 67,300.40.

Your employer also pays NSSF (KSh 5,700), Housing Levy (KSh 1,425) and the NITA levy (KSh 50), so this salary costs them about KSh 102,175 a month.
