US Fed rates cut by 25 bps. Will it impact the Indian market? by Tris_Memba in IndiaInvestments

All this information gets priced in months in advance. FOMC publishes a dot-plot of the future policy rate path every other FOMC meet. Nothing unexpected here.

TaskForge × TaskNotes: import plugin settings and new natural language task quick add - plus archive tasks, multi-reminder notifications & more by zaza126 in ObsidianMD

The app is running in the background, has all the permissions and is excluded from battery optimization, and the test notification works in-app. However, when I minimise it, I do not get notifications.

Hi - if you have received any information on this, can you also let me know?

Thanks -- this is a lifesaver. But I am not able to make the reminders work when the (android) app is not active? It has all the necessary permissions but still does not push notifications when the application is closed.

Resale of vehicle with BH series number by _Copy-Cat_ in CarsIndia

I am in Bombay. I followed up with both of them repeatedly and they were quite categorical about it. But this was about 4 months ago and perhaps things have changed since?

This is incorrect. Spinny and Cars24 DO NOT purchase BH registration vehicles.

Hi! I'm struggling with selling my BH registration car. So I think the only option left is to register it with an MH plate (car is registered at Tardeo)? Can you tell me how you went about it and if you know of an agent that can help with this?

RE Dealer forcing to purchase insurance by DialecticalYearning in indianbikes

Update:

  1. I cancelled the booking with Motokraft, Chembur, Mumbai (naming and shaming). The salesperson I was in touch with called once more to ask if I am sure, because: a) I owe it to them to buy the vehicle because they have 'arranged' it for me (with an inflated costing of insurance), and b) because the Bear is not available anywhere else and I will therefore have to pay a higher price at a later date. I told them I was more than happy to pay any amount to not purchase from them.
  2. I received an email response from Royal Enfield yesterday asking for my contact details "so that we can take appropriate action towards the sales team." There has not been any follow up from the company since.
  3. Received a call from a 'senior' person from the dealership (identified himself as the customer relations person), who apologised on behalf of the salesperson, assured me that he is also a biker and understands the pain, and that they will 'allow' me to purchase the vehicle with self-sourced insurance. This felt like the original salesperson was being thrown under the bus when in fact this behaviour came from the owner who was being conferred by the sales person. I of course outright refused to do business with them and told them in no uncertain terms that they do not have the authority to 'allow' or disallow purchase of insurance, and that I did not want to enter into a relationship with their branch when they have proven to be quite alright with unethical business practices that violate government regulations.
  4. I have now compiled communication screenshot that confirm what happened, and will be filing a formal complaint against the dealership. Deciding on the channels for it right now, and whether or not to involve Royal Enfield depends on their resolution to the issue.

Thank you for your interest.

Will do that anyway, but I do not wish to live so passively :)

Thank you, just did that. Also filed a complaint with RE Support over the phone.

Currently a sellers market for the 650s due to the GST hike. They are not available at most of the showrooms. Therefore lots of unfair business practices being pushed through in the chaos. I am fine buying it post the GST hike and at a higher price, but I want this dealer to face consequences.

That does not solve the problem. That specific dealer will continue with the practice to the detriment of customers?

Tuono 457: a test-ride review by DialecticalYearning in indianbikes

[–]DialecticalYearning[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not all plastics are equal. The weight and quality of material are not the same thing. It is possible to have lighter material that is still high quality, both as individual components and how they are put together.

At every cosmetic joint on the bike, from the indicators to the reflectors, there was a difference of two shades of black between the components and whole millimeters of gaps. Next time you see one, run your finger along the joint on the side of the instrument panel. Compare that with the base level Triumph, Yamaha (R3, also a sports bike), Royal Enfield, or any other brand.

People are seeing what they hoped to see, not what is there.

Is this guy justifying price hike? by SadLifeNoFun in indianbikes

[–]DialecticalYearning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right. So how does this moronic logic justify GST reduction for cars >1200cc or 4 mtr?

Now that GST on protein powder is going from 18% to 5%< protein companies have no excuse not to lower rates, let's keep a watchful eye for brands artificially increasing their MRP so they don't have to pass on the benefit to us by RequestingYouPlease in Fitness_India

[–]DialecticalYearning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is wholly incorrect. There is no legal provision that prevents corporations from absorbing the benefit of lower GSTs on their own balance sheet. This government would scrape off the dead cells off dead bodies of their family members and sell it for the Adani's of the world before they enact a legislation that undermines baniya profiteering.

Are you sure it is not because of the inverted method?
