For Modi3.0, some low hanging fruits!!

1)Bringing Indian fugitives like Vijay Mallya, Nirav Modi to be done on war footing signalling strong msg;

2) all Ministers, sitting MPs, MLAs , other PEPs,and their Kins' Agricultural Incomes must b taxed under Income tax w/o any exemption;

3) instead of Capital Gain taxes please introduce real estate transaction tax, gold & diamond etc jewellery TT like STT .

4)STT for unlisted Co shares can be introduced. Even for Listed Shares, STT can be slightly increased and cumbersome Capital Gain tax can b removed

5)"News Channels" of all Politically Exposed Persons or run by their relatives or funded by them or controlled by them should be banned. They can run entertainment or other channels but should not be allowed any "News" content to be telecast.

6)All Local Bodies Tax, EB Tariff, User charges for Water, Drainage etc. may be CPI Inflation Indexed with +/- 1%

7)Remove all zero rated GST on products and introduce atleast 1% GST with eligibility for input tax credit not exceeding 1% on input costs.

The above are some of my recommendations to Modi for plucking some low hanging fruits to make maximum impact.

Why Indian Rupee is falling steeply against US dollar?

The Indian Rupee recently crossed the 97 mark against the US Dollar, and it doesn't seem to be slowing down.
