c. Capital Deposit Fund, namely a fund which has effectively been
paid up in full by a shareholder or prospective shareholder to add the capital in order to be classified as a paid up capital but has not been fully supported with prerequisites fulfilling requirements for a paid up capital, such as approval by shareholder …

after deducted by an estimated tax (tax calculation) and a deficit in PPAP from the amount to be derived in compliance with Bank Indonesia …
