The Central Jakarta District Court (PN Jakpus) rejected PT Indobuildco's lawsuit against the Minister of State Secretary (Mensesneg) casu quo (cq) of the Bung Karno Sports Complex Management Center (PPKGBK) regarding the management of the Sultan Hotel.
The verdict was read out by the Panel of Judges at the Central Jakarta District Court, Friday, via e-court , by Chief Judge Guse Prayudi.
In a statement confirmed in Jakarta, Friday, Central Jakarta District Court Spokesperson Sunoto revealed that the case was registered under case number 208/Pdt.G/2025/PN.Jkt.Pst. and case number 287/Pdt.G/2025/PN.Jkt.Pst.
In case 208, the Court concluded by stating that the State (through Land Management Rights or HPL Number 1/Gelora) was the legal owner.
Thus, he said that the Building Use Rights (HGB) of the Sultan Hotel had been legally revoked since 2023, the state's action was legal, and Indobuildco was obliged to vacate the entire Sultan Hotel area (land and buildings), with a decision that could be executed first ( uitvoerbaar bij voorraad ).
Then in case 287, it was concluded that Indobuildco was ordered to pay royalties for the use of HPL land for the period 2007–2023 amounting to 45.36 million US dollars (converted to rupiah when paid) and its counterclaim was rejected.
"PT Indobuildco was ordered to pay court costs of Rp. 530 thousand," he said.
Civil lawsuit Number 208/Pdt.G/2025/PN.Jkt.Pst occurred between Indobuildco against the Minister of State Secretary, PPKGBK, Minister of Agriculture and Spatial Planning/National Land Agency, Minister of Finance, and the Central Jakarta City Administration Land Office.
In its lawsuit, Indobuildco launched the argument that HGB 26/Gelora and HGB 27/Gelora, where the Sultan Hotel is located, were issued on free state land, not on HPL 1/Gelora land, so that its renewal does not require a recommendation from the Minister of State Secretary and PPKGBK as the holder of HPL 1/Gelora.
In addition, Indobuildco is also demanding compensation for land and buildings of approximately IDR 28 trillion.
