The regression model used is multiple regression. The results of research show that financial leverage, debt covenant and dividend payout ratio do not significantly influence income smoothing practices partially and simultaneously. This caused by many limitation of this research such as the amount of variables are few and the amount of samples are only 18 samples because the deJimitation of companies observed which excludes manufacturing and banking companies and lists on 1DX. Therefore, the suggestion for next researcher to analyze more about other factors besides financial ratios that could be influencing income smoothing practices and research on all companies with no exception, if there is chance, on the other country
