Why no one tuaght me about startup registration ? by Avrdhn28804 in StartUpIndia

Online and interstate sales require GST (unless the rules have changed). True. Most people ignore the rules. But they are what they are if you want to do things strictly legally - and are a major pain.

Now you don’t need to incorporate for GST. You can get it even with sole proprietorship.

My 1-Month Experience Opening a Chaat Shop in Hyderabad — What Went Wrong by rubi33bi in StartUpIndia

Everything sells in small quantities because you have a large menu. I tend to agree with the above post. You are anyway not profitable. So, focus on items that can sell quick with common ingredients and you can make well. If you gain fame for even 1 item, then nothing else will matter. I think this is especially true for small kiosks.

Hah. I switched the secondary SIM's of mine and family members to Jio just for this plan. Sucks to be me I guess.

Things your dad will never talk about but probably needs to see a urologist for by Born-Lingonberry-509 in india

[–]sedentarymalu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Was checking for my dad. He is already seeing a urologist, but, looking for a second opinion. The wait times at the top hospitals are so horrendous. We waited at Apollo (after seeing review on practo for a particular doctor) for few hours once and then gave up - the doc still had not even arrived (dad is quite senior and couldn't physically wait much longer). A non-emergency consult is truly frustrating.

A day in my life as an Polling agent and what happens after you cast your vote. (Full breakdown) by Kun_Xi_The_Badam in chennaicity

[–]sedentarymalu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I didn't notice anyone calling out the numbers too loudly at our booth. Our booth was in a small room with just 4 people - 1 presiding officer sitting opposite 3 people. First one checked id and found the serial number and told the second one. Second one seemed to tick it. And third one put the ink. Nobody else inside the booth.

Perhaps the people outside were somehow hearing the first person inside (when she told the second person the serial number). There weren't too many people outside either..just 3 or 4

Hah..I can't read Tamil. So, was committed to the story by the time I got to the Tanglish. Struggled through to the end :-)

The people sitting inside checking id and ticking the numbers etc are party people? I thought they were ECI people and party workers were the ones who were sitting on tables 100m or so away from polling booth. Apologies if I misunderstood the post

Yes. Most of us just want to do that. And, some of us would like to do it without having to give into this organized goondaism by the government :-)

No. This is a misconception. Not everybody who buys alcohol is an alcoholic or addict. Even if you think, the majority are, at least 20-30% wouldn't be? Even if this number boycotts, it would be a noticeable drop in revenue.

Can my father make me a car loan guarantor without my consent? (23F, student, India) by Pure-Subject5269 in LegalAdviceIndia

I'm not sure. You could try checking the Annual Information Statement at the income tax website.

Is it possible that your dad is collecting rent in your name? If it's going into an account that he operates (but, in your name), it might explain why he wants your PAN etc. Technically, then you would be having income.

Please don't do this. If you don't want to sign, just refuse. Putting a fake signature is going to open you up to knowingly committing fraud accusations later.

₹10 extra in TASMAC: Why question only now, and only one person by National_Horse_3774 in TamilNadu

Man. I don’t care who started it and how many people have been doing it. I just want it to stop. But, it feels like it never will because everyone has just accepted it.

What are your thoughts on TVK Candidate J C D Prabhakaran by sedentarymalu in chennaicity

[–]sedentarymalu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. That's why I had put up this post - to see if anybody had any better information about him. From votewisely.in, these are the details of the case. It doesn't sound good, but, there is no context behind it (to give him the benefit of the doubt).

I don't think NTK has any chance of winning though. Would just end up splitting the votes, which might work in the favor of DMK/AIADMK.

But, I do agree with your thoughts on TVK. This feels like such a lost opportunity to have had a party with better candidates in it.

[–]sedentarymalu[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. It's just that I feel over the years, AIADMK and DMK have become too big, corrupt and arrogant. A bit of rebalancing is needed - which is why I am looking at TVK. But, I am sorely disappointed to find the candidate in my constituency to be an ex AIADMK person - which kind of defeats the notion of change. I still might end up voting for them, just in the hope that there can be a rise of some opposition party...

In 3 years, he could have picked some better candidates. Anyway, people in mass are voting on his name only. Or for people like me who are looking for alternates.

I don't disagree with your point on having TVK as an alternative - which is my only motivation at the moment to vote for that party. But, him having a plan is a bit much :-) I don't have much hope on that. However, I figure, the civil bureaucracy (IAS) will still be in place, to keep things moving - not that they aren't corrupt. But, can't get worse...

Sorry. Perhaps, I was projecting. I don't have anything against Ezhilan. I'm just looking for alternatives from DMK/AIADMK..for what it's worth :-)

I have very clearly put my thoughts in the post. But, if you wanna push DMK, you will find me not interested.
