The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) said it stands to lose up to Sh2.45 billion in taxes from Safaricom annually if Parliament approves a proposal to cut the mobile termination rates (MTR) further from Sh0.58 to Sh0.12 per minute.
MTRs are the charges levied by a mobile service provider on other operators for terminating their voice calls on its grid.
