Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – PT Pertamina (Persero) opened his voice on the rise of gas station entrepreneurs in Indonesia who sell their gas stations in online vending shops. Basically, PT Pertamina claims to offer various benefits as a business service station partner.
Company secretary PT Pertamina Patra Niaga, Irto Ginting said that in offering partnership with the gas station, Pertamina offers various advantages. “In the future it will be more competitive, petrol stations are not just a place to buy fuel, they can become one unique service”, Irto explained to CNBC Indonesia on Friday (6/1/2023).
In terms of unique serviceIrto explained that gas stations can partner with other sales products such as non-fuel retailing such as selling lubricants, LPG, to food brands and convenience stores, even brands on an international and local scale. “There will be more than 170 new gas stations in 2022 alone,” Irto said.
The National Association of Oil and Gas Entrepreneurs (Hiswana Migas) believes that the gas station business has definite profits and a clear market, but many factors affect the business, including the burden of costs which are also not negligible, such as taxes and more.
Gas station entrepreneurs say that the requirement of a tax, such as land and building tax (PBB) in DKI Jakarta, has reached hundreds of millions per gas station area. “I estimate that the PBB is more than Rp. 100 million, and this is also very burdensome from an organizational point of view. We have asked the regional government for a burden relief policy,” said Hiswana Migas DPD III chief Juan Tarigan on CNBC Indonesia, Thursday (5/1/23).
This value includes PBBs in strategic areas such as Sudirman and other strategic areas in DKI. As a result, many gas stations in the main area began to go out of business. Entrepreneurs can choose other areas where the PBB value is not as high as Jakarta.
“To be honest, having a gas station business in Jakarta and South Cianjur is like talking about profit, but the obligations are very different. PBB can be 1/5 or 1/10. For example, sales and profit are the same there, Rp. 10 million per month, but the obligations are different. far, this is what friends (petrol station entrepreneurs) ultimately consider unattractive with the existing cost burden,” Juan said.
According to monitoring by CNBC Indonesia, Jakarta has gas stations which are sold at IDR 35 billion in Tanjung Priok area, North Jakarta, Duren Sawit is also offered at IDR 30 billion, and many more.
In Lamudi, gas stations are being offered for sale even more, for example in Pantai Indah Kapuk Jakarta, a gas station is being sold at a price of Rp 60 billion. A gas station in Lebak Bulus area, South Jakarta was also sold for Rp 30 billion.
“Pertamina gas station for sale, ready to use, in good condition. For Cirendeu gas station, area ± 1800m², SHM certificate, Pertamax – Pertalite – Solar available,” wrote the seller as quoted by CNBC Indonesia, Wednesday (4/1/23).
In addition, a gas station is sold in Kebon Jeruk for Rp 70 billion, a building area of 200 m2, a land plot of 2143 m2 and a complete building right certificate. Regarding the legality of permits from Pertamina, land certificates and PBB SPPT.
Colliers International Indonesia’s head of consulting services, Monica Koesnovagril, said that from an ownership perspective, the gas station business is not the most profitable, especially with such a strategic location.
“In fact, gas stations are in supply and demand. Many gas stations are located in the city center where land prices are already expensive. Speaking of Jakarta, the KLB (building floor coefficient) has increased , so in theory land optimization will be more optimal to build a higher one,” he said on Wednesday (01/04/2023).
