Abstract

Agio represents capital contributions made by shareholders exceeding the nominal value of shares. Although economically significant, agio occupies an ambiguous position within Indonesian company law, as it is regulated only implicitly in the elucidation of Article 8 paragraph (2) letter c of Law Number 40 of 2007 on Limited Liability Companies. This normative placement creates legal uncertainty regarding the juridical consequences of agio, particularly whether such contributions affect fundamental shareholder rights. This article aims to analyze the legal status of agio in Indonesian company law and examine its implications for shareholder rights. Using a normative juridical approach through statutory and conceptual analysis, this study finds that agio does not automatically confer additional rights beyond those attached to shares, resulting in a disconnect between economic contribution and legal entitlement. This condition potentially generates disproportional outcomes and shareholder disputes. The article argues that clearer normative regulation is required to enhance legal certainty, fairness, and coherence in corporate capital arrangements.
