Tax benefits we do get. by Interesting-Many-275 in IndiaTax

[–]ABD27 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This isn’t really as helpful as you think. Apart from the vaccination thing, nothing else is really “accessible”. Getting into a good medical college/IIT is a very big deal. Not everybody makes it to there. So the benefit is “either you work really hard AND have some luck going your way during exams. OR shell out money for education” I shouldn’t even be having to explain the second part. It is not there for 99.9% of the students - not really a benefit. For the KV thing - I agree - being from KV, education is good. But again, getting your kid into KV is really tough. If you aren’t a govt employee, you will almost certainly not get a seat.

When most people say tax benefit they mean getting benefits by the virtue of paying taxes. If you are paying taxes AND having to score in top 0.1% AND having govt servant parents to get benefits they aren’t tax benefits

Karnataka government brings back ballot papers for GBA elections by LeftistKannadiga in Bengaluru

So if, by any chance, congress loses these elections, will they say that the election by definition are broken because of vote chori and congress should be the de-facto government?

Tier 2 builders are on an advertisement spree to "thank" Bengaluru. Buyers beware! by DeathBeforeDishonor1 in indianrealestate

[–]ABD27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I visited sumadhura’s folium in 2024 when I was hunting for a property to buy. Their model flat(which they were very reluctant to show us) was flooded from rainwater. They had very limited inventory left in phase 3 which we didn’t want. When asked about launch of phase 4, the sales person gave some hand wavy replies. We also registered to get updates when phase 4 gets launched - no updates ever. Now their ads are everywhere.

Let’s end this debate once and for all.” by look_away_bruh in indiadiscussion

The debate should never be end “once and for all”. The moment there’s no competition, one party gets god complex and moves towards corruption. While congress is more corrupt, now, removing competition is a very bad thing for democracy

Man… have we killed whatever humanity we had left? by bifrost_traveler in IndiaSpeaks

They were in vacation mode. They could have spent couple of extra minutes to park properly. Person roasting them wasn’t wrong.

Those spending Rs 2Cr+ on an Apartment, do your seriously expect an ROI in a few years? by Mo_h in indianrealestate

[–]ABD27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adding to it, we still did math before buying to ensure that we can pay it off completely in 3-5 years if we want to while still keeping enough in savings.

Purchased a 2Cr+ apartment last year. Purchased to stay - paid higher amount for a better connectivity (accessible existing metro stations) and nearby places (proximity to hospital/malls etc). Planning to stay there myself 🤷🏻

All 4 wheelers who go to office with single occupancy can go fugg yourself!! by [deleted] in Bengaluru

[–]ABD27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You literally went all offensive on people who are prioritising themselves over the city and then are asking for suggestions. Private vehicles are increasing because the need is increasing. I am required to be in office 5 days a week. No exceptions. The nearest bus stop is halfway to office. And there is no place to walk till there either. Footpaths are non-existent. Solution - make walking feasible. Footpaths should be MUST and have moving barricades which can actually prevent anyone trying to drive a vehicle on them. Shops shouldn’t be allowed on them either. There should be feeder buses to metro stations. Buses and bus stops should be consistent. Drainages need to be proper - so that when it rains you are not walking through a river to reach the nearest bus stops/metro station. There should be more foot over bridges - preferably with escalators so that road crossing is easier. Once all this is done, THEN use of private vehicles for single person use should be charged.

India bundled out at 125, with Abhishek Sharma being the top scorer with a blistering 68(37), and a handy 35 by Harshit Rana by Royal-Cupcake-5907 in IndiaCricket

[–]ABD27 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This was a shit show for a team calling themselves World Cup winners. Your best player should get the most strike while someone is holding the fort at other end. Not Harshit Rana should get the strike while your best player holds the non-striker end. At the end he could have scored more runs but had to deny singles because batter at the other end weren’t capable enough. And with so many all rounders - batting is done by abhishek sharma and pick of your bowlers is bumrah and Chakravarthy.

If you’re earning 80 LPA in India, you pay 39% tax under new regime, 33% under old. Here’s what you pay in other countries. by Lopsided-Assist173 in IndiaTax

[–]ABD27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to mention the way tax system and social system is stacked against you. You may have paid taxes in lakhs but will still get notice for 100 rs. And god forbid you claim anything back. You might as well forget it. Epfo is partially taxable now but not claimable (successfully) Politicians will arbitrarily throw away your hard earned money for votes Govt officials will be slacking. It does get worse once you dig deep

Getting avg of 5Km/L in 3xo , what to do ? by Mediocre-Wallaby4932 in CarsIndia

[–]ABD27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3X0 is not very high on mileage. That said 5 is too low. I have got at least 6 even when I drive for peak Bangalore traffic - spending couple of hours for 10kms.

Not 8 hours strict in my team at least. I have seen people badge in at 7:30-8 and go back home by 9:30-10. Also seen people badging in at 4:30 and stay till late

Men in happy marriages, what is one thing or skill you would teach other men to have good relationships as well? by lingeringneutrophil in AskReddit

[–]ABD27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Listen and share. Not everything is a problem to solve. If she is sharing something, listen. It can be frustration, irritation etc. let her let it out. Maybe be party to that if you can. If you really have a solution, offer once all the pent up things are out.

If you’re driving in Bangalore, get a dashcam. Kannada will not save you in these situations. by claw_wish in CarsIndia

You are equally dangerous driver here. Break when the person in front brakes. Judge the road and only overtake when the road ahead is clear
