Several factors are thought to influence the practice of tax avoidance by companies, including financial distress, leverage, profitability, and company growth. This study aims to analyze the effect of financial distress, leverage, profitability, and company growth on tax avoidance in wholesale sub-sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2018-2020. The population in this study amounted to 44 companies with a sample of 26 companies. The research data is secondary data in the form of financial statement data listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange for the 2018-2020 period.
