15% or 5% ... Mine makes sense


Should be 5%.


They have paid the .76 dividend not the special .68

Taxed more, how now? Still at W/holding tax at 5%

I was expecting 1.44 * no. of shares I hold so I deducted the amount I received from what I was expecting to arrive at a higher deductible tax.

Let's assume you hold 10,000 shares that qualify for KES 0.76 dividend and KES 0.68 special dividend. Total dividend = KES 1.44.

Withholding tax (WTH) = 5%

Dividend 1 WTH = 10000 x 0.76 x 0.05 = KES 380
Dividend 2 WTH = 10000 x 0.68 x 0.05 = KES 340

Total WHT = 380 + 340 = KES 720

Let's use the total dividend (1.44)to test your more taxation theory when paid in piecemeal.

WTH = 10000 x 1.44 x 0.05 = KES 720

How did you arrive at more WTH tax being paid when the dividends are paid in a piecemeal fashion?

here's my earlier statement mathematically (a-b)=x
going by the number of shares provided as example I arrive at a wht of 47%.

tax : (10000 x 1.44) - (10000 x 0.76) = KES 6800 /47.22 %
