Domestic Update
• Government plans to increase revenue collection particularly from excise tax with the target of IDR193 trillion in 2022. This revenue collection is 11.56% higher from the 2021 target of IDR173 trillion. MNCS Comment: We expect the government to continue increasing tobacco excise tax rate for 2022. In our view, this will lead to higher cigarette retail price and higher CPI. On the other side, aggressive excise tax rate will only burden major producers' margins and drag down cigarette manufacturers' share price further.
• Furthermore, the second dose of vaccination rate nationally has reached 45.4% or equivalent to 94.46 million people.
