By contrast, leverage and political connections did not affect the tax avoidance of consumer cyclical sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange.Originality/value – The object of this research differs from that of previous studies, namely, consumer cyclical sector companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange.Research limitations/implications – The limitation of this study is its relatively small sample size.
