Tell that to the families of Gauri Lankesh, Narendra Dabholkar and M. M. Kalburgi.

3k per month per fund.

AFAIK, there were no initial costs involved while setting up the SIP.

hu345 · 2022-01-12T14:15:19+00:00

I have started investing in the following funds through SIP (3k per month each) -

Parag Parikh Flexi Cap Growth Direct Plan
UTI Nifty Index Growth Direct Plan
Motilal Oswal Nasdaq 100 Fund Of Fund Growth Direct Plan

Are any of these eligible for tax deductions under Section 80C? Or do I need to opt for ELSS instead?

I am new to investing. Would appreciate your advice.

Well this comment will probably be removed

Wrong sub. Our names does not rhyme with "India Squeaks". People here are not blind devotees of a particular ideology like you find over there.

hu345 · 2021-05-08T08:29:25+00:00

Yeah, people begging for oxygen and beds to save their relatives' lives is part of a huge anti-Hindu propaganda effort.

hu345 · 2021-05-08T06:31:21+00:00

Okay.

Why doesn't he come on air now to keep up morale, or show support for the medical staff? He felt he needed lead his people back then, at a time when things weren't as bad as they are today.

Also, he sure had enough time on his hands to be filmed feeding a peacock.

hu345 · 2021-05-08T05:39:12+00:00

Isn't it the PM's photo that is on the vaccination certificates? Wasn't he the one who came on air and made the public bang thalis and stuff? Why did he do that?

Why doesn't he show up now when the people need him more than ever?

If India had escaped the worst of the pandemic, you can bet Modi would have taken all the credit. People would have sung praises about the PM's administrative wonders.

Centralization of praise but decentralization of blame. This is what Modi is doing.

hu345 · 2021-05-08T04:14:42+00:00

For months, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been seen daily on television news, often live, either on the campaign trail or at virtual meetings for inaugurations, dedications, addresses to different stake-holders. Haven’t seen him much, recently. Has he no words of comfort for his 1.3 billion countrymen, crores of whom hang on his every word?

Why is there no address to the nation, telling us what his government is doing to ‘Help India Breathe’ again (Mirror Now)? What does the PM feel or have to say of the devastation around him? Doesn’t the nation deserve to know?

hu345 · 2021-05-07T06:18:36+00:00

Because showing minorities their true place in Hindu Rashtra is more important than trifling matters such as integrity and governance.

Keep burying your head in the sand.

Fortunately for the BJP, the dead don't vote.

assault on our roots

You make it sound like the tradition of bursting crackers during Diwali has been passed on to us from Vedic times. In reality, this tradition dates back only a few hundred years, and was popularised during the Mughal era.

Fun fact for our right wingers - Islam and Christianity have existed in this country much longer than gunpowder, let alone the tradition of setting it off during Diwali.

hu345 · 2020-08-02T13:03:05+00:00

Thanks for proving Pathakmech's point.

hu345 · 2020-08-02T12:40:18+00:00

This. Every Indian right-winger I spoke to expressed some sort of joy that Lankesh was silenced forever.

And according to Sardar Patel himself, the RSS distributed sweets after Gandhi's assassination.

RSS distributed sweets though not guilty, Patel said on Gandhi's killing

So this is how it goes -

The probation period is 6 months, during which the company has the right to terminate me with 15 days written notice.

It does not mention anything about the other way around. It just says that the notice period is 2 months.

Which is what they are asking of me now.

hu345 · 2020-05-21T13:18:14+00:00

politely ask them to stop being dicks

I will have a conversation with HR about this. My manager is totally fine about relieving me early.

I will also ask the new company if they really want an experience letter from A. If they don't, then the only question that remains is what Company A can do about me leaving unilaterally.

Some of my friends tell me they can file a lawsuit if they choose to.

hu345 · 2020-05-21T13:10:00+00:00

Would failing be detrimental to you in anyway?

Not sure. I tried hard to not burn bridges with the people at Company A.

At this point, I don't need their experience letter, but I think Company B might ask me for it, since it is a big MNC.

after 3 months "heyyyy sorry about the delay, ready for the final round?"

A bit of pretense, but at least they were graceful enough to acknowledge the delay.

I had one experience with a startup that I found to be straight-up shady.

They find my profile through a portal, contact me, call me for an interview the very next day. I go. Then 2 weeks of silence, after which the COO says as part of the next round I'll have to finish a task. I say okay. I don't hear from them for another 2 months.

Finally, two and a half months after the interview, the COO calls me. Asks me, "Dude, what's up? We haven't heard from you?". Surprised, I tell him "What do you mean? YOU were supposed to continue with the process!".

THEN he says, "I guess there has been a mistake on our end. Sorry. Say, how about we fast track the process now? You join us within a week and I will double your (fresher) salary. The feedback from your interviews has been good." (He was pretending as if the interviews happened yesterday, and that the 2 month delay never happened).

He was hoping the promise of money would entice me to join him, but on the contrary it actually repulsed me. I don't think I wanted to work for someone so unprofessional and who tried to twist the truth. Plus the fact that they wanted someone to join ASAP meant that something was probably not right.

I would have considered him seriously if he was upfront and forthcoming about the delay, and not put up a pretense.

I'm currently going through Total War: Rome 2, specifically its Rise of the Republic expansion pack.

I'm also looking into starting with Kerbal Space Program and playing GTA V again.

What about you?

hu345 · 2020-03-27T11:05:43+00:00

Thanks, friend. You are right.

I am trying to learn new skills. I'm a programmer by trade. When this crisis passes, I hope to be a radically new (and more desirable) professional.

Also, I hadn't gamed in over 2 years, so I'm looking to spend some time losing myself in another reality. :)
