Virginia Wangari v KRA
M-Pesa and bank credits assessed as taxable income where not characterised with contemporaneous documentation.
Africa Tax Terminal is a product of Tarra Agility Africa — a boutique tax and legal advisory firm whose partners have appeared before the Tax Appeals Tribunal and the High Court of Kenya.
Tax governance in Kenya and across Africa is broken — fragmented legislation, unavailable case law, revenue authority policy inconsistent with the law. The tax information gap between finance teams and revenue authorities costs businesses millions every year.
ATT is the delivery of tax information and advice by Tarra Agility experts, supported and enabled by proprietary internal technology. Advisor first, technology enabled.
ATT is built for finance teams at multinationals and VC-backed firms whose CFO needs a defensible compliance position — not just annual returns, but a documented, case-law-backed understanding of where the risks are. Our goal is to make the traditional annual tax health check irrelevant.
ATT relies exclusively on source documents with force of law: decided cases, statutes, and official KRA notices. No opinion content, no generic guidance.

KES 6.8B TP assessment defeated — taxpayer won because documentation was contemporaneous and specific to the entity's actual functions, assets, and risks.
Input VAT disallowed where supplier could not be verified — even where goods were delivered. Buyer's good faith is not a defence.
Appeal struck out for filing 16 days late. Article 159(2)(d) does not cure a missed statutory deadline.
KES 241M TP dispute — TNMM validated; IQR range upheld as arm's length.
