Abstract

This study aims to review the VAT administration mechanism in the early stages of CTAS implementation, analyze its advantages, and identify challenges faced. The research focuses on VAT administration through CTAS at the Surabaya Sukomanunggal Tax Office from January to June 2025. The DGT asserts that the digitalization of tax administration is an integral part of bureaucratic reform that cannot be postponed. However, some parties consider this system not yet fully ready due to challenges in infrastructure, human resource quality, and community readiness to adapt. The method used in this study is qualitative analysis. The results show that the implementation of CTAS in VAT administration is relatively practical because it integrates all administrative processes in a single web-based system. Nevertheless, various technical problems and policy misalignments remain as barriers to its optimal implementation. Therefore, the DGT needs to improve system stability and capacity, refine CTAS features according to taxpayer needs, and strengthen support through education and clear regulations.

Abstract

This study examines the effectiveness and implementation of the Unification Periodic Tax Return within the Coretax system on the compliance of government agency taxpayers and tax revenue at tax office X. This study employs a qualitative method with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews with Account Representatives and representatives of government agency taxpayers, as well as documentation studies. The results indicate that the Coretax implementation created a "compliance shock," systematically compelling government agencies to become more disciplined through a rigid workflow (tax withholding receipt, report, pay), thereby enhancing reporting compliance. The impact on revenue is more on the acceleration and safeguarding of existing tax potential rather than an absolute nominal increase, whichis tied to budget allocations (DIPA). Key obstacles include technical issues such as delays in SP2D data synchronization, creating a "compliance paradox," an increased manual workload for operators, and a gap between automation expectationsand reality. The efforts of tax office X in providing education and consultation services proved effectivein assisting taxpayers during the transition period.

Abstract

This study analyzes the alignment between government capital expenditure and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda within Indonesia's fiscal policy framework. Capital expenditure serves as a strategic instrument of public finance to enhance infrastructure, stimulate economic growth, and improve the quality of public services. However, its effectiveness depends on the extent to which fiscal implementation reflects the principles of sustainable development. Using a qualitative descriptive approach with content analysis, this study examines official government documents, including the Central Government Financial Statements (LKPP) and the Annual Summary of Audit Results (IHPS) published by the Audit Board of Indonesia (BPK) for fiscal years 2020–2024. These documents are analyzed in relation to the national development framework outlined in the Medium-Term National Development Plan (RPJMN) 2020–2024 and the implementation of the SDGs as stipulated in Presidential Regulation No. 59 (2017). The findings reveal that improvements in efficiency, accountability, or sustainable outcomes have not fully accompanied the increasing allocation and realization of capital expenditures. Audit results highlight persistent weaknesses in project planning, procurement processes, and asset management, which undermine the transformative potential of government investment. Also, while Indonesia's fiscal policy has formally integrated the SDGs, its implementation remains predominantly output-oriented rather than outcome-driven. Strengthening the integration of SDG indicators into budget planning and evaluation, supported by performance-based auditing, is essential to ensure that every rupiah of capital expenditure contributes effectively to sustainable economic, social, and environmental development.

Abstract

This study assesses the readiness of local governments in Indonesia to implement sustainability reporting within the framework of public accountability and institutional change. Using a scoping review approach, the analysis covers fifteen national and international documents, including key regulatory frameworks and reporting standards. The dataset consists of Indonesia's core policy instruments—such as Law No. 23/2014, Law No. 1/2022, Law No. 59/2024 on the National Long-Term Development Plan (RPJPN) 2025–2045, Presidential Regulation No. 12/2025 on the National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN) 2025–2029, and the Environmental Strategic Assessment (KLHS RPJPN 2023)—as well as global references from the International Public Sector Accounting Standards Board (IPSASB), the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC), and the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The findings indicate that Indonesia has developed a strong national policy foundation supporting sustainable governance; however, at the subnational level, sustainability reporting remains conceptual and fragmented. Institutional barriers, including weak inter-agency coordination, disconnected data systems, and limited human resource capacity, hinder implementation. Existing accountability mechanisms, such as LPPD and LAKIP, continue to prioritize administrative compliance over environmental, social, and governance (ESG) impacts. Additionally, the study concludes that Indonesia's public sector exhibits normative alignment with global frameworks (IFRS S1–S2, IPSASB, and IFAC), but lacks operational institutionalization at the local level. Sustainability reporting has not yet transitioned from a compliance-oriented tool into an integrated accountability mechanism. Advancing sustainability accountability in local governance requires stronger institutional coordination, professional capacity building, and data system integration consistent with public sector reporting reforms led by the Government Accounting Standards Committee (Komite Standar Akuntansi Pemerintahan, KSAP).

Abstract

The weakening global economy since the Covid-19 pandemic have triggered a decline in corporate operating profits. Some companies enconter operational losses and the possibility of default. But, for big companies or state owned companies, bankruptcy and liquidation are not an option. Then, debt restructuring or deb modificaion is the preferred for them, allowing companies, such as PT Garuda Indonesia Tbk (GIAA) and PT Waskita Beton Precast Tbk (WSBP), continuing their operation. PSAK 109 recognizes gains and/or losses for restructuring of debt modification from short term to the long term debt. However, there are no tax regulations governing this matter. This study describes the tax treatment of unrealized gains on debt modification due to the implementation of PSAK 109. This study used qualitative methods, conducted through a literature review and in-depth interviews with tax authorities and taxpayer representatives. The results indicate that the debt restructuring undertaken by GIAA and WSBP generated profits due to the exchange of old debt instruments for new ones. Gains on modifications do not actually provide additional ability to pay. However, we must highlight that the definition of tax objects is very broad, so it is still included in the definition of PPh objects in the form of recognition of debt relief income based on Article 4 paragraph (1) letter k of the PPh Law. In addition, there is a burden on the amortization of discount interest expenses that can be charged by the creditor (banking). The addition of expenses that can be deducted as a reduction in the creditor's taxable income should be income for the debtor
