I expect nothing from the budget empty promises from a bloated government. Last year's budget was praised for the economic stimulus package which was just a cropper alongside the funny ideas like kazi kwa vijana. It was also the biggest budget in kenya's history again the impact for the mwananchi is almost nil. The development budget has not even fully utilised. I miss David Mwiraria's budgets. They were bold and innovative
My 2 cents

If you are in employment, the tax bands may be widened. If this happens, you will have more take home pay to invest.

I think I read somewhere that they might scrap stamp duty on property. Is it significant enough or it's one of those that make no difference?
BBI will solve it :)
the deal

the U.S and European markets even the JSE have taken a beating in the past 2 days but they fired up today...i think KQ results out tomorrow will excite the market...its kawaida to see shallow corrections im a bull...lack of news...companies going ex dividend are other factors..the budget is crucial for industrial stocks such as EABL...BAT...

Will EABL and BAT escape the ritual sin-tax increase?

@ winston Last year sin tax was increased on hot drinks only for it to harm sales drastically. The tax increase had to be scrapped by trhe government after a while. It was bringing in less than before. EABL turnover has stagnated over the years. Any increase will lead to a similar scenario like we had with the hot drinks last year. I hope the guys have learnt their lesson.

@ FundamentAli - Thanks. But doubt that KRA learnt from that fiasco. With the safcom billions... i hope the minister will not be tempted to increase tax on airtime! The budget should also be an interesting pointer to the IPO's (magnitude and timing aspect) of parastalals
