Abstract
This research examines the effect of thin capitalization for Indonesia shariah stock index (ISSI) firms on tax avoindance. ISSI firms arerestricted in total debt bearing interest that not to exceed than 45% of total assets.The restriction has a consequence that ISSI firms don’t get tax shield from the debt. We used book tax different as a proxy for tax avoidance, debt intereset bearing for thin capitalization, and asset mix for capital intensity and inventory intensity. Based on 336 firms -years of manufacturing sector for 2011-2013, the result of the research shows that ISSI firms reduce the positive association both of total debt and assets mix on tax avoidance(BTD). The implication of the research is to show that thin capitalization could minimize the tax avoidance through debt bearing interest.
