Abstract

This study aims to analyze the impact of leverage and firm size on tax avoidance practices in the property and real estate sector of companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) for the 2022–2024 period. The research method applied is quantitative with a causal approach, using secondary data from company financial statements over three years. The analysis was conducted using multiple linear regression to understand the relationship between variables. The research findings indicate that leverage has a significant impact on tax avoidance, while firm size does not show a significant effect individually. However, simultaneously, leverage and firm size have a significant impact on tax avoidance. These results indicate that companies with high debt tend to utilize debt interest expenses to legally reduce tax obligations, while firm size affects overall tax planning capabilities. This study contributes to companies in managing clear tax strategies and to the government in monitoring tax avoidance practices in the property and real estate sector.
