Kenya has run out of the new Internet-enabled electronic tax registers (ETRs) that relay real-time data on daily sales to the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), a hitch that could ground operations of some traders in five days.

The Business Daily has learnt that more than half of the licensed dealers of the new tax registers have run out of the machines and are awaiting new shipments ahead of the July 31 deadline.
