Jakarta –
The relaxation of Sales Tax on Luxury Goods (PPnBM) of up to 0% is proposed by the Ministry of Industry to be made permanent. A number of cars can enter the program with a minimum local purchase requirement of 80 percent. This discourse was previously raised by the Minister of Industry Agus Gumiwang to stimulate the local automotive industry.
“The government is preparing it carefully by taking into account the costs and benefits, as well as compiling the time frame,” Agus said some time ago.
Indeed, it has not been stated what model specifications will receive a 0 percent PPnBM incentive. In the previous period, only 1,500 cc cars and below received this policy. While the 1,500 – 2,500 cc engines vary in the amount of the discount, the largest discount on PPnBM is 50 percent.
In the data attached to the Decree of the Minister of Industry Number 1731 of 2021 concerning Motorized Vehicles with PPnBM on the Delivery of Taxable Goods Classified as Luxury borne by the Government for Fiscal Year 2021, there are not many car models with 80 percent local content.
It was recorded that only 11 models met 80 percent local content, while 25 other cars that entered the PPnBM relaxation program did not meet the requirements.
Low Cost Green Cars (LCGC) are of course the most popular models, because the local purchases are above 80 percent, for example Brio Satya, Agya, Calya, Ayla, and Sigra.
Furthermore, the high local purchase requirement policy has the potential to target cars in the MPV and LSUV segments. There are six cars, namely HR-V 1.8, Veloz, Innova 2.0, Xpander, Xpander Cross, and Livina.
Minister of Industry Agus stated that the exemption of PPnBM for the automotive industry needs special attention. Because, currently there are 21 industrial companies of four-wheeled vehicles and more with a production capacity of 3.5 million units per year.
On the other hand, the vehicle component companies, which number 319 thousand, are also mostly MSMEs. Industry absorbs 1.5 million workers directly and tens of millions of workers indirectly.
“The automotive sector was also one of the sectors hardest hit at the start of the pandemic, although now it has grown to 64 percent,” said Agus.
With a local purchase requirement of 80 percent, it can absorb more domestic content, but several well-known and best-selling cars do not meet the requirements to enter the discourse of the permanent 0% PPnBM program. The following is a list of cars that were previously included in the PPnBM program which are now in danger of being no longer available, along with their local purchase rates:
