JAKARTA - DKI Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung decided to provide relaxation to 6 types of taxation in Jakarta. Pramono explained the reasons for providing the tax incentives.

"Why then do we provide tax incentives, the most important thing is to stimulate the market. After all, in economic conditions like this, our market provides incentives or stimulants so that they are more enthusiastic," said Pramono at DKI Jakarta City Hall, Wednesday, September 24.

The types of taxes that are given relaxation are Land Taxes and Rural and Urban Buildings (PBB-P2), Land and Building Rights Obtainment Customs (BPHTB), Motor Vehicle Tax (PKB), Motor Vehicle Transfer Fee (BBNKB), Specific Goods and Services Tax (PBJT) Arts and Entertainment, as well as billboard taxes.

In addition, Pramono also wants to make it easier for the community, especially the younger generation, to be able to buy a proper home and place to live to start their new life.

Not only that, but tax relaxation is also given as support for the creative and cultural world so that it is more developed, so that MSME actors can promote their business without being burdened with additional costs.

"Of course we have calculated it until now, in September, our taxation is safe. So that way, because it is safe, we dare to provide more incentives so that the market passion will be more than that," explained Pramono.

In detail, the relaxation of BPHTB is in the form of a 50 percent reduction, from 5 percent to 2.5 percent for the first tax object. Then, a 75 percent reduction for the first new rights granting will take sides with young families and the younger generation, including the acquisition of the rights to the management rights of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government.

At PBB-P2, the DKI Provincial Government reduced the PBB to 100 percent for the implementation of primary and secondary private education in the form of foundations.

Then, 50 percent reduction in arts and entertainment PBJT for film performances in cinemas, cultural arts performances for education, charity, and social, from 10 percent to 5 percent.

Then, the billboard tax for objects in rooms such as cafes, restaurants, shop houses, and so on is exempt from levies.

Furthermore, the DKI Provincial Government reduces PKB levies on motorized vehicles whose selling value (NJKB) is above market price, to match market prices.

Finally, the DKI Provincial Government continues to free the PBB-P2 for war veterans, underprivileged families, and families of victims of natural disasters.
