- They even wanted to scan all personal photos & messages so that I don't have something 'bad' (Source)

Hearing IT companies telling employees to resign after X days if they didn't get any project.

> CEO says no layoffs. Media celebrates 'Such great company'.
> Companies fail to give project (work) despite hiring.
> Employees asked to resign instead of firing.
> So technically company fired no one. CEO still 'great guy'

Nice strategy 🤡

US Central Bank (Fed) raising rates to crush the economy (demand, jobs etc.) & control inflation.

Meanwhile,
Wages keep rising.
Nonfarm payrolls still strong.
Unemployment is still at 3.7%.

Though actual employed workers down but still concerning data points suggesting risk of wage price spiral. Fed wouldn't like this - they will have to crush the economy more to push more people into unemployment. 2023 looks worse than 2022.

Govt allows Employees State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) to invest up to 15% surplus funds in equity through ETFs.

🇮🇳 Initially 5% will be invested. Estimated flow ₹3000Cr per year. Expected to increase to ₹10k Cr after 2 quarters.

Investments are restricted to Nifty 50 & Sensex ETFs. They usually go for SBI run ETFs. But overall ETF volume will increase in India 🚀

5 suggestions for Budget 2023:

Conveyed my suggestion to Gov from here: https://www.mygov.in/group-issue/inviting-ideas-and-suggestions-union-budget-2023-2024/

① Tax Slabs: Reduce Income Tax Slabs by about 5% each. GST is already covering a lot of it. Lower IT will make more people file ITR.

② Exception/Deduction: 80C limit should be increased to ₹2.5 lakh. And LTCG exemption limit to ₹2.5 lakh.

③ Equity: Dividends should be tax-free until ₹5 lakh. Anyone receiving ₹5 lakh+ in an FY as dividend has to pay as per his/her income tax slab.

④ Crypto: Remove TDS, keep only the Capital Gains tax. Unnecessary use of resources for IT Dept to apply TDS as hardly anyone files TDS for each transaction & hard to verify for IT Dept.

⑤ Inheritance Tax: Anyone (Son, Wife etc.) inheriting ₹20 Cr+ from some family member (Father, Husband etc.) should be taxed at 40 to 50%. Inheritance Tax exempted for those who donate it to non-family members or NGOs run by non-family member. No more than ₹20 lakh can be donated to 1 person/entity.
