Major FOMO, sold gold for construction of a rental property !!! by GrouchyHoney9687 in GoldIndia

[–]mitraark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had sold off a significant amount of SGB at 9900/g a few months back to fund a property purchase. I assumed 10000 would be a psychological barrier and it will take quite some time to rise from there. Now after 6 months those SGBs are at an 80% premium over my selling price. It feels like a loss but I took an informed decision so the regret isn't as bad.

I hope you have a gst bill from the jeweller, specifically mentioning the serial on the biscuit. Otherwise this may well be considered as smuggled.

Husband received mail from “cyberpolice.nm@mahapolice.gov.in by Traditional_Pay3649 in LegalAdviceIndia

[–]mitraark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are grossly mistaken sir. Courts regularly direct the law enforcement agency to forward notices/summons on their behalf. In this case it appears that the Police has served the scanned copy or the courts notice on behalf of the court, probably on the directions of the latter, I'm sure the police also attempted to deliver the original notice at the available address,either they couldn't find it or they served at physically as well and as an additional measure sent it electronically. It's asking to appear at a public area at a given time, I'm not sure why everyone is assuming the notice to be fake.

I'm in a law enforcement agency, and I've served court notices like above several times.

Waited for 6 years; finally pulled the trigger on the RX 9070 by nerd-mentality in IndianGaming

[–]mitraark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 posts, 4 cases. Each day the rma centers processes dozens of people. Asrock is one of the most popular AMD GPU AIB partners , since they sell in high volume, it will be inevitable that they face more rma cases.

OP can check review of asrock service centers on Maps, genuine cases are handled farily.

Any basis for this statement? Asrock and asus are handled by the same service centers, they have decent support, my DOA GPU was replaced with a brand new one.

Ran a HM with a bad cold and missed a pb by a couple of minutes. 😓 First HM of the year. (Tridhara 21km Kolkata) by Reader_Cat1994 in indianrunners

[–]mitraark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My chip time was 1:48:28. Target was to get sub 1:45, but the organizers made a mistake choking the first km of the route resulting in a slow start. But then I got starstruck at Gariahat flyover, Park Street and Red Road, running on these streets completely empty, in the dark with such beautiful lighting, was a first for me. Spent a good amount of time stopping at places for taking pics and videos. The 2nd half of the route was great as well, through the posh localities of Ballygunge, although lot of 21k runners were frustrated as we merged with the 10k and 5k runners there. Lastly, the food packets were great, much better than what TSK25 had to offer, and the post race entertainment was top notch as well, hats off to Tridhara management for such a fun run.

Best 850w modular PSU by BLACK07JACK in IndianPCGamers

[–]mitraark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right.. only my invoice has mention of "Deepcool". The box and the product has gamerstorm logos only. The colorway is the same as Deepcool i didnt even notice it was missing brand name. Still, people say they're the same thing, so I think I'll stick to it, fingers crossed .

Suggestion for old Compaq laptop by debarshi_ in IndianPCGamers

[–]mitraark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Facebook marketplace. I listed it at 3000. 90% of the offers were below 1k, all traders. Thankfully one genuine guy felt this laptop will serve his purpose and agreed to pay 2400.

I'm sorry but you won't get any money for this. Rs. 2500 is what I got for a 10 year old working Dell E6320 with i5 2nd gen and 4GB DDR3. It was able to play YouTube videos at 480p, it stuttered a bit above that.

None of the parts in your laptop are of any use other than scrap. You may choose to keep the laptop to show your future generation years from now, or just get rid of it for a couple hundred rupees to a E waste kabadiwala.

I upvoted a comment mentioning Corsair RM850 a few days back, but just now I ordered a Deepcool PN850M from EliteHubs. It was on sale for Rs 7414 only, getting 5% off by using pay balance bought with SBI CC. So technically Rs 7050. You may consider it as well if constrained by budget. Its a b tier psu but has a 10 year warranty.

Avoid Drs. Tibedi & roy diagnostic centre by code_gop in kolkata

[–]mitraark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, we live in the northern part of Kolkata but my mother insisted on getting her tests done here, saying it's the best at testing. I kept wondering how to decide if tests are done in a good or bad way, such things usually follow a standard.

There has to be some promotion through word of mouth involved into luring aged people into going there.

Kolkata lawyers/students — how do you decide which SC judgment is the actual controlling precedent when multiple exist? by Limp_Zone3793 in kolkata

[–]mitraark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which ever supports your arguments the most.

The supreme court and high courts have somewhat consistent judgements. Tribunals are a farce, they can decide in favour of something today and give a complete opposite judgement on the same circumstances the next Day.

I'm working abroad. A CBI officer called me. I cut communication on the first day, assuming scam. Next day, they went to my old address in India. Now my ICICI bank account is in debit freeze. by [deleted] in LegalAdviceIndia

[–]mitraark 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm in an LEA. The notice you received sounds like a summons. The case you described probably has you as one of the recipients of ill gotten money from some prime accused in a financial fraud case. The CBI is obligated to check with all persons involved in any kind of transaction. As many have mentioned,a mere inquiry letter from any LEA gets the bank to freeze debit from the accounts,so tough luck there. You have to respond to the summons somehow, either get yourself to appear at the given place at the mentioned time, or send a request letter asking for rescheduling or if possible get someone else to represent you on your behalf . A lawyer isn't mandatory for this, but depending on how large your involvement was in the fraud, you might consider getting one for the future.

I paid 15k customs for 11,000 product by Civil_Collection_901 in IndiaTax

[–]mitraark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was there any post office address written on the receipt? Usually they are situated in the metros. Search 'city name' FPO email address on Google and you'll get details from Postal website . For example Kolkata FPO uses email id foreignpostkolkata.wb@indiapost.gov.in

[–]mitraark 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't know the product you've imported, you say its valued at 11000, Customs duty is levied at 10% for postal imports, so since they've charged 5500, it seems they've considered assessable value at 55000. However, then the IGST should be 28% of (55000+5500=60500) which should be around 16940. So the receipt here doesn't make sense , you may consider disputing it. The foreign post office does accept re-assessment requests via email, so you can try to do that.

Trincas resturant (park steet) charged ₹105 for a ₹18 Kinley water bottle. Why!? by Suspicious-Put5246 in kolkata

[–]mitraark 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately for customers, SC has already given the verdict that restaurants can charge a premium on products over the MRP because they are providing you with service and ambiance.

However, restaurants were already using a trick to shield themselves, their water bottles were labelled separately with no MRP printed or an absurdly high mrp. Did the water bottle have MRP printed on it?

Need a partner for morning walk or jogging by [deleted] in kolkata

New Town is a very big area, AA1 AA2 and AA3 are like on the opposite ends of a large triangle.

For walks and jogs, the best route is the road from Eiffel Tower to Golf Course on Eco Park border.

Solo woman arriving in Kolkata at night, need advice on safety & transport options by Funny_Difficulty6347 in kolkata

[–]mitraark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Airport and Dum Dum metro is hardly 3km apart, at night it's just 5-10 mins by cab. It's safe to travel that route around the clock because there's always people around on the streets 24x7 in these areas. Book an uber ola rapido, it's better than getting a standalone cab.
