14. | INCOME TAX AND DEFERRED TAX
Tax adjustment for inflation Law No. 27,468 establishes that in the net taxable income of the periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018, the adjustment for inflation obtained by the application of the income tax law may be deducted or incorporated into the tax result for the fiscal year. This adjustment will proceed only if the percentage variation in the IPC, will accumulate (a) a percentage higher than 100% in the 36 months prior to the end of the year, or (b) regarding the first, second and third fiscal year that starts from its effective date, an accumulated variation of the IPC that exceeds 55%, 30% or 15% of said 100%, respectively. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022, the CPI has exceeded the 100% threshold mentioned above, so the Company has measured the tax charge to earnings for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 considering the application of the adjustment for fiscal inflation. According to the Solidarity Law, the positive or negative result generated by the application of the inflation adjustment corresponding to the first and second fiscal year beginning on January 1, 2019 will be charged in a sixth in that fiscal period and the five sixths remaining in equal parts in the following 5 fiscal periods. As of January 1, 2021, 100% of the adjustment may be deducted/taxed in the year in which the effect is determined. On November 16, 2022, the Senate of the Nation approved the 2023 budget bill under Law No. 27,701, which already had half a sanction from the Chamber of Deputies. The 2023 budget law incorporates article 195 to the income tax law establishing that in the event that the adjustment for tax inflation is applicable and a positive adjustment (profits) arises from it, the first and second fiscal years starting on 1 January 2022 inclusive, they may allocate 1/3 in that fiscal period and the remaining 2/3, in equal parts, in the 2 immediately following fiscal periods. For the deferral to be appropriate, it will be necessary for companies to make an investment in the purchase, construction, manufacture, processing or definitive import of fixed assets (except automobiles), during each of the 2 fiscal periods immediately following that of the calculation of the first third of the period in question, for an amount equal to or greater than $30,000,000,000. As of December 31, 2023, the Company projected investments in PPE in accordance with the requirements mentioned above, determining that the amounts exceed what is established by law. Adjustment of acquisitions and investments made in fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018 A cost adjustment mechanism is established for assets acquired or investments made in fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2018. The adjustment will be made based on the percentage variations of the WPI. Extraordinary tax RG N° 5268/2022 On August 16, 2022, RG No. 5268/2022 was published through which the AFIP ordered an extraordinary advance of income tax. The extraordinary advance payment constitutes an additional payment on account to that provided for in the general advance payment regime that can be added to the latter. For fiscal year 2022, the Company paid the AFIP Ps. 22,837,153 for this concept.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had a specific tax carryforward derived from negative exchange differences for the years 2021 and 2020 generated by financial instruments traded abroad for Ps. 7,974,955. The realization of such tax loss depended on the future generation of taxable financial gains taxed during the statute of limitations period. To determine its recoverability, the Company took into consideration the reversal of the deferred items, its tax planning and projections of future specific taxable income based on its best estimate. Based on these projections and because it was not possible to estimate as probable the generation of future specific financial gains to absorb such tax loss, no deferred tax asset of Ps. 794,334 was recognized as of December 31, 2021. During the year ended on December 31, 2022, the tax loss carryforward was totally recovered. Below is a reconciliation between the income tax charged to results for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023 and 2022 and that which would result from applying the current tax rate on net income before income tax for the exercise:
