REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, JAKARTA -- Executive Director of Center for Indonesia Taxation Analysis (CITA) Yustinus Prastowo predicted, tax revenues shortfall at the end of the year might reach Rp 250 trillion or widen from the earlier projections.

"The projection of tax revenue at the end of the year only reached 80 percent, or there is a shortage of around Rp 250 trillion," Yustinus said in Jakarta, Tuesday (8/12).

Yustinus added, large tax shortfall was a hard chore for new leadership at the tax agency. Moreover, time to consolidate was more limited towards the end of the year.
