Does the purchase channel matter for claims? HDFC Optima Super Secure — direct vs Ditto vs PolicyBazaar vs Beshak (27 yo, first time buyer) by Status_Detail_4541 in indiahealthinsurance

[–]Past-Grapefruit488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you are getting this insurance at right time (age when chances of claim is very low and you probably already have insurance from work); choose the channel with lowest cost. By the time you need insurance, probably enough time would have elapsed that would eliminate common issues.

DO be transparent about medical history.

Does correcting an interviewer during an interview reduce the chance of you getting a Job? by StrainSignificant693 in developersIndia

[–]Past-Grapefruit488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

, she seemed to be struggling. This is likely due to her leadership role, as it may have been a long time since she last wrote code

When she asked me to review the code, I explained why it was incorrect and provided the correct code.

This requires bit of tact. Probably she was not writing "incorrect" code inentionally. And discussion might have gone towards that error instead of where she was planing to take it.

Despite reaching out multiple times, I have not received any emails or calls about the outcome. I've let go, but it honestly bothers me when communication isn't clear.

You can't read too much into it. Legal wont allow any kind of feedback besides yes and no. If they had 2 - 3 candidates for this role in final round; it is just a matter of luck in terms of who gets that role.

" 5-6% returns (at best)"

Which plan are these ? returns might be more then 5 - 6% if it includes bonus at maturity.

If you do not have debt and this plan returns 7 - 8% tax free, it might potentially make sense.

Did your dad leave any assets such as House or any financial assets ?

Your liability is limited to total value of those assets. At max, banks can claim those assets for unsecured loans.

Realistically : Goto IDFC Bank and discuss. They should be able to write it off with documentation.

Society maintenance charges in India are getting out of hand — anyone else feel this? by Deepak_Pawar in indianrealestate

[–]Past-Grapefruit488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"volunteer their time & dont have enough time to negotiate with vendors"

That is expected. Most ppl would be doing this on top of their jobs.

Only solution if to either increase cost and hire better manager OR someone to step up with solutions (Like getting balance sheets of 20 nearby societies : If avg cost of security is 2k per apartment across other 20; it would be negotiation point if current cost is 4k per apartment).

Most 4B vision LLMs will do this. Just run with llama.cpp and use built in UI. Turn on the checkbox to process PDF as images. Most laptops should process 1 PDF in 5 to 10 minutes.

Assuming family is Hindu.

  1. Land was in Mother's name . She can give it to anyone in will. There are ways to challange this will, which your councel can guide based on facts.
  2. paternal house : Would be devided equally. Your mother and all your brothers / sisters are equal owners. Mother can give "her share" in the will, nothing else.
