The taxman has collected at least Sh9.07 billion from the second phase of the tax amnesty programme that ended over the weekend after 752 additional defaulters voluntarily declared unpaid taxes.

The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) had given defaulters up to the end of last week to take advantage of the Voluntary Tax Declaration Programme (VTDP) that cushions defaulters from penalties and legal suits by up to 50 per cent on interest and accrued penalties.
