From this Saturday,Cars,Nduthis, beer, cigarettes, juices and water will cost more.
The Treasury slapped a Sh200,000 excise tax on all vehicles more than three- years- old from the date of first registration and Sh150,000 on newer vehicles.
This adjustment replaces the existing 20 per cent excise tax based on a vehicle’s value, which is charged alongside customs and value added tax. @The_Virus still looking to buy a car? kwisha wewe. Budget yako inatosha nduthi only.
Motorcycles will also attract excise tax at
Sh10,000 a unit, hitting the boda boda business hard.
@conteh please note that cigarettes, which are currently taxable at the higher rate of Sh1,200 per 1,000 sticks (mille) or 35 per cent of the retail sales price, will see the rate more than double to Sh2,500 per mille.
Beer will attract a flat tax of Sh100 per litre.
Currently, a litre is charged the higher amount of between Sh70 and 50 per cent of the ex-factory price. Umeskia @Web Dev
Water will attract a tax of Sh10 per litre, up from Sh3.
Okiya inakaa una work na treasury. Tuambie tu ukweli instead of saying fuck the government which ain’t in ktalk, i can say that to you and go back to work.
Beer, sugar & petrol usually have people suffering in the very very short run and when they adapt/adjust, its back to kawaida…guys will still flock their locals in their loan car notes na bado watakunywa ngogoyo…Woi!!
when i was a daily drinker i used to argue that beer price increases only hurt families because in spite of the increase i still had to take my eight to ten T malts. now i don’t care…
So a look at LSM shows that the middle class range from LSM 7-12 and that would range from upper to lower middle class. According to the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics, the Kenyan middle class can be defined as anyone spending between Sh23,670 and Sh 199,999 per month.
