FOCUS ON POLICY
CAPITAL GAINS TAX: WHAT
YOU DID NOT KNOW
What is Capital Gains Tax?
Capital Gains Tax (CGT) is a tax chargeable on the whole of a gain which accrues
to a company or an individual on or after 1st January 2015 on the transfer of
property (lands and buildings) situated in Kenya, whether or not the property
was acquired before 1st January 2015. It is not a new tax. It was suspended in
1985 and has now been re-introduced effective 1st January 2015.
Is Capital Gains Tax Final Tax?
The rate of the tax is 5% of the net gain. It is a final tax and cannot be offset
against other income taxes.
Who Is Liable To Pay The Tax?
Any person transferring property, whether resident or non-resident
(Transferor). The transferor can be an individual or corporate body. It also
applies to shares (including listed shares).
When Should Capital Gains Tax Be Paid?
It is a transaction tax and should therefore be paid upon transfer of property
but not later than the 20th day of the month following that in which the
transfer was made. Business Profits are assessed and taxed on the tax payer
upon filing of the annual returns and accounts.
What is Compensating Tax?
Compensating tax is a tax on the distribution of untaxed income. It can arise
from capital gains being one of them and differences between accounting
and tax revenue. Despite the reinstatement of capital gains tax, Kenya has in
place compensating tax.

DEVELOPER PIONEERS DELIVERY OF AFFORDABLE BRICK AND MORTAR
HOMES FOR FAMILIES WITH INCOMES STARTING AT KSH 40,000 PER MONTH
Riverview is a 1,000 home mixed use estate in
Athi River.
Athi category home prices start at Ksh 1.6m for
a one bedroom home.
Tana category homes with enhanced finishes
start at Ksh 3.2m for a two bed.
Why should just the wealthy be able to
buy a home? This is the central question
the team at Karibu Homes posed
themselves. Their goal is to make home
ownership affordable for the majority
of hard working urban families and it
seems they may have found an answer
to their question. With the launch of
their new Riverview community, they
have brought home prices down to as
little as Ksh 1.6m.
At prices like this, the dream of home
ownership could eventually become
a reality for millions of Kenyans. This
was quickly spotted by the crowds of
interested buyers queuing up outside
Karibu’s stand at the recent Kenya Homes
Expo at KICC. In just 4 days roughly half
of the 80 early release homes were
snapped up by interested buyers.
What have these early buyers got for their
money? The homes are of traditional
brick and mortar construction in a
variety of typologies ranging from 1 to
3 bedroom apartments in 3 to 5 storey
blocks. Karibu Homes also believes in
Karibu Homes Riverview - Tana Blocks.
community, as Managing Director, Ravi
Kohli, says: “a home is the focus of family
life so in addition to providing a modern
and secure environment, with security
facilities, water storage and boreholes,
street lighting and cabro roads, we
will also be providing a shopping
centre, nursery school and playground,
basketball courts and community centre
- all the necessary infrastructure and
facilities for the Riverview community to
flourish.”
The well known adage goes “there
are three things that matter most in
property: location, location, location”.
Karibu Homes Riverview is located in
Athi River, 1km up the Muthongoni
Road from the Mombasa Road.
As the name suggests, the estate
sits on a bank of the Athi River and is
overlooked by the Lukenya Hills. There
are numerous residential developments
in the neighbourhood, all of which are
higher priced.
Athi River itself is a key area of focus for
Vision 2030’s development of Nairobi
Metropolitan, with the government
facilitating urban spread from Nairobi
centre along the Mombasa Road to Athi
River. The developers believe this area is
set for considerable growth and it has
already changed susbtantially in recent

years. According to Hass Property Index
the average price of a home in Athi River
is now Ksh 6.9m, up 28% in just two
years.
Karibu Homes has managed to achieve
low prices in a popular, growing location
through scale and segmentation.
“Although lower prices mean lower
returns per home, they also mean we
reach a much larger market.
By constructing over 1,000 homes we are
able to spread costs over a large number
of homes and achieve economies of
scale that smaller developments cannot
achieve,” says Mr Kohli.
Karibu Homes has segmented its homes
into two categories to meet the different
requirements of customers: Athi and
Tana homes. Its Athi homes, comprising
1, 2 and 3 bedroomed apartments have a
more basic standard of finish that allows
the developer to keep prices low and
gives the buyer the option to upgrade
finishes at their leisure in the future.
Its Tana homes, comprising 2 and 3
bedroomed homes are aimed at those
looking for a higher quality. They have
enhanced finishes with tiled floors
throughout and fitted cupboards. Prices
start at Ksh 3.2m for the 2 bedroomed
version.
Creating affordable housing is not
just about the price of the home, it is
also about access to finance for what
is inevitably the most expensive thing
most of us will ever buy. Karibu Homes
has been working with traditional
providers of mortgage finance to enable
this. “In addition,” explains Mr Kohli,
“many Kenyans in our target market, who
have a household income of Ksh 40,000
to 140,000 per month, have access to
alternative funding. Some SACCOs,
home buying co-operatives, company
schemes, chamas and pension funds
provide access to loans at interest rates
ranging from 4% to 12%. This can have a
significant impact on affordability.”
Co-Founder, Irfan Keshavjee, who also
runs the well known White Rose chain of
dry cleaners, says Karibu Homes’ vision is
to help change the urban landscape of
Kenya by lowering the first rung of the
property ladder so that it is within the
reach of the majority of urban families.
“Most people dream of owning their
own home, we want to turn this dream
into a reality for as many people as
possible.”
Karibu Homes brings together a
multinational group of developers
and investors dedicated to providing
hard working families with affordable,
well-constructed homes in thriving
communities. The company is backed
by Blue Haven Initiative, a large scale US
impact fund, MDHI, one of Delhi’s biggest
property development companies, and
other experienced property investors
from the UK and Kenya.
Dipank Sharma, Chairman of Karibu
Homes and Managing Director of
MDHI, who deliver mega real estate
projects in India, notes that the
demographics favour the sector. With
over half the population aged 18 or
less and projections indicating that half
the population will be urban by 2030,
the migration to urban centres, which
are the best source of employment,
will continue. Nairobi and its environs
will benefit from this. Elaborating, Mr
Sharma says “the spread of urbanization
from Nairobi to Athi River reminds me
of what happened in Delhi. We took
advantage of this to make a success of
our business in India and our research
tells us that Kenya will boom over the
next decade, so I am keen to help this
happen.”

CLIMATE AND ARCHITECTURE
CLIMATE AND ARCHITECTURE
UN HABITAT
The environment and its climatic
conditions profoundly affects human
development and behaviour. Man
responds to buildings, landscapes,
trees and other elements as much as
he responds to social experience. Each
environment or site exhibits uniqueness
of weather statistics and characteristics.
A shelter or a building is designed to
protect its occupants from the adverse
conditions of the weather.
As we choose our clothing according to
the seasons, buildings’ envelop should
be designed to respond to its microclimate.
Green building design strategies
address each of the following climatic
data: temperature, solar radiation,
relative humidity, rainfall and wind.
The way buildings are planned and
designed has a direct implication on
the energy consumption, hence they
have a strong potential to negatively
or positively impact two important
elements of everyday life: our
environment and energy bills.
Their contribution to climate change
mitigation on greenhouse gas emission
is directly related to the way they are
designed in relation to local climate,
the site specific characteristics and
the embodied energy of the entire
construction process.
Other characteristics that influence the
buildings include: topography, presence
of water bodies, surrounding buildings,
vegetation etc. The influence of the sun
should be understood and respected
by designers of passive solar buildings
in which the sun’s free energy is used
in the building for lighting and heating,
but will not interfere with the occupants’
comfort.
The modern building seems however
not to take into consideration the
relationship between man and his
behavioural response to the external
climatic elements. They have been
increasingly designed as copies of
western standards with no consideration
to the local climate thus the modern
design separates the inside from the
outside as much as possible, increasingly
relying on mechanical devices and
systems to do much of the work.
The first step in creating comfort
and thermal delight in buildings is to
understand the relationship between
the climate and our need for shelter.
Buildings are exposed to a wide range
of weather parameters throughout the
year. This influences the way they should
be designed in relation to their location.
Climatic regions in Kenya
Climatic conditions in Kenya differ from
region to region and are divided into five
main distinct climatic regions:
1. Hot and Humid: It is considered as
a 0-100km wide strip from the ocean
coast. In the hot season, the temperature
is about 32°C; The temperature lowers as
we move into the mainland and can drop
to 28° C; Average annual precipitation:
900-1250mm of rain; Solar radiation
is around 5.0-5.4 kWh/m2. It lowers as
you move away from the coastline to
4.5 kWh/m2; Humidity is approx. 80%
around the coastline and 65%-72% as it
moves inland. (Mombasa, Malindi and its
environs)
2.Hot Semi-arid/Savannah: The altitude
ranging from 500m-1000m in semiarid
areas and rises up to 1500m in the
savannah plains. In the hot season, the
temperature are about 29°-31° C and
can rise up to 33° C in semi-arid areas;
The rainfall ranges from 500mm-750mm
in semi-arid areas to 1000-1500mm
in savannah regions; Solar radiation is
around 6.3 kWh/m2; Humidity: 65%
but can go as low as 42% in parts of the
savannah plains. (Isiolo, Thika, Machakos,
Mavoko)
3. Hot Arid: These include areas with
altitudes ranging from 0m-500m. In
the hot season the temperature are
about 36° C; Average Annual Rainfall:
0-500mm; Solar radiation is around
7.0 kWh/m2; Humidity: 40%. (Garissa,
Turkana, Marsabit)
4. Highland / Upper highland: This
climate describes areas with altitudes
above 1500m. In the hot season, the
temperature are about 26°-27° C;
Average Annual Rainfall: 1250mm+;
Solar radiation is around 6.0-7.0 kWh/
m2 but can drop to 5.3 kWh/m2 in very
high altitude areas; Humidity: 65%-80%.
(Nairobi, Eldoret, Kitale, Meru, Nakuru)
5. Lake Region: This climatic describes
a 0-25km wide strip along lake shores.
In the hot season the temperature are
about 28°-29° C; Average Annual Rainfall:
1200mm+; Solar radiation is around 5.5
kWh/m2; Humidity: 60%-70%. (Kisumu,
Kakamega, Homabay)
Given these varied climatic zones, it is
therefore clear that different regions
require specific design solutions. There
is no model solution that can be applied
across the board.
Well-designed buildings according to
the different climatic conditions in the
country can passively respond to the
adversity for thermal comfort by using
its positive values (such as allowing in
air movement for natural ventilation
and daylight for natural lighting) and
keeping away the adverse elements
(such as protection against solar
radiation).
Climate is an essential consideration in
the process of architectural design and
has a major effect on the performance of
a building and its energy consumption.
Knowledge of climatic conditions
therefore helps building professionals to
develop appropriate responsive designs
and consequently select suitable
materials that meet climatic constraints.
Considering the importance and
scale of the construction industry, this
represents an important step for climate
change adaptation and mitigation.
A good integration of climatic data
associated with environmentally sound
building design measures could save up
to 70 % of energy in buildings.
NOTES:
1. Thermal comfort is described as
a person’s condition of mind which
expresses satisfaction with the indoor
and outdoor environment. Factors
affecting thermal comfort include air
temperature, radiation, air velocity,
humidity, clothing and metabolic rate
(activity)
2. The bioclimatic chart shows
temperature vs humidity and can be
used to determine human thermal
comfort and design strategies required
for a particular climatic zone.
Wind Rose
A wind rose diagram shows the
wind directions in a particular
location. This is useful to create
natural ventilation

Temperature
Maximum and minimum temperatures are key factors for thermal comfort.
Solar Radiation
The intensity of the solar radiation influences the building heat gains.
Relative Humidity
Maximum and minimum relative humidity determine the dryness of the
atmosphere and the feeling of warmth or cold.

Rainfall
Monthly rainfall influences the relative humidity and is useful for designing
water rain harvesting systems.
Sun Path
The sun path of a particular
location is crucial for designing
proper sun shading devices.
According to the climatic data for Nairobi,
a green building should observe:
• Building orientation with main
façades facing North-South.
• Natural ventilation should be
provided making use of the prevailing
winds from NE-E direction.
• Natural lighting in all the rooms but
preventing solar radiation will reduce
energy consumption.
• Protection of windows from direct
solar light but allowing some solar
radiation to enter the building in the
colder season from May to September
will enhance passive heating.
• High thermal capacity walls (made of
stones or bricks) are very appropriate
to assist passive heating during the
colder season.
This article was prepared by KPDA’s partner - UN-Habitat’s Urban Energy Unit - under the programme “Promoting Energy
Efficiency in Buildings in East Africa.” The programme aims of mainstreaming energy efficiency (EE) measures into housing
policies, building codes, and building practices in East Africa and to achieve considerable avoidance of GHG emissions as a
result of improved building practices.
UN-Habitat is also offering free technical advice on upcoming projects and designs to ensure that they are sustainable and
