This calculator works out the monthly gross pay that will yield a desired net pay by adding back PAYE, NSSF and LST.

LST is deducted in July, August, September and October only. If LST is activated, you need to specify the order in which PAYE and LST are calculated. The tax that is calculated first must be deducted from the income subjected to the other tax to avoid double taxation.

Note that there are cases where a given net pay corresponds to more than one gross pay. Suppose LST is activated and PAYE is deducted before LST. A net pay of Ush 730,500 corresponds to gross pay values of Ush 1,000,000 and Ush 999,998. In such cases, the calculator generates the minimum gross pay for the given net pay.
