Business Wire India

Today, leading tax tech startup EZTax released its pre-budget 2023 expectations and how such a budget could be funded as part of its yearly straight talk sessions on pre- and post-budget analysis.
 
War, Recession, Layoffs, and inflation are the four major pre-budget keywords floating around the world for the past several months. Despite of such fears, Indian economy has done a phenomenal job in standing tall except in case of more than usual inflation.
 
EZTax sees Budget 2023 as a pivot for a significant shift from status quo budgeting with a firm focus on self-reliant India and an increase in defence and infrastructure spending to boost the private sector to catch up with what is needed for a major economy, shattering recessionary fears around the world for an isolated growth.
 
EZTax.in further expecting the Budget 2023 under the leadership of Hon'ble Finance Minister Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman to have below set of key changes. Visit https://eztax.in/budget for a complete list of expectations.
 
  1. Continued reforms towards "minimum government and maximum governance", steps to re-gain the market confidence for privatisation of non-functional PSUs, etc.
  2. Increase the local sourcing requirements for all the government and major public companies to reinvigorate the MSME business.
  3. Provide larger incentives for start-ups. who are providing employment and innovation for defence industry, agriculture, and national building products and services.
  4. Re-organisation of GST Slab Rates to promote employment along the lines of raw (lower GST Slab), processed (manufactured), heavily processed, and imported (higher GST Slab).
  5. Income tax reforms and Budget 2023 should emphasise easing tax compliance and increasing the tax base in India.
  6. Increase the tax rebate under section 87A for a tax-free income of up to Rs. 6 lakhs.
  7. Increase primary Income tax deduction for housing loan, in case of self-occupied property to Rs. 3L to promote housing and savings.
  8. Encourage a small family of four to get a special rebate. Also, introduce "family" as an IT return type to enable family filing with incentives.
  9. Enhance the new tax regime with more favourable tax slabs to pave the way for the sunset of the old tax regime and reduce compliance complexity. Set a date for the end of the old tax regime.
  10. Special Fund to Automate Company Compliance to Reduce Human Intervention Reduce the tax professional's involvement during the company's lifecycle for revenue up to Rs. 10 crores.
  11. Enable a measure to give online EZ Loans based on GST turnover and sector-specific indicators.
  12. Transformations in the banking sector as a whole—re-enforcing asset valuation to reduce NPAs, privatising some banks.
 
"While the overall economy is progressing and showing resilience and confidence, it is vital to take care of the employment issue in India. Frameworks and budget allocation should be reoriented toward achieving a higher employment outcome, this also means to continue to have a higher Capital expenditure by reducing revenue expenditure that was raised during COVID times," said Suneel Dasari, Founder and CEO at EZTax.in.

Mr. Dasari further said, "The untapped, low-hanging fruit for higher revenue to fund Budget 2023 is the tax collection "from the non-compliant".

EZTax sees Budget 2023 to have a higher or on-par Capital Expenditure compared to FY 2022-23 when the world is facing a recessionary environment. This seems to be a bold, inward looking, and a much-needed step for India."

New Cluster Launch by Dosti Realty at Dosti Greater Thane

Wednesday 25 January 2023 07:00 AM UTC+00
Business Wire India

Dosti Realty has been the flag-bearer of residential growth and unlocking the potential of 'NEW' locations. After transforming the skyline of Mumbai and Thane, the brand has shifted its focus to the neighbouring areas of Thane.
 
After the successful launch of Dosti Greater Thane - Phase I in Kalher which witnessed a thunderous and ground-breaking response generating 20,000+ inquiries, 15,000+ walk-ins, and a record-breaking 1,750+ bookings over a span of just 11 days, Dosti Realty is back to cater to the needs and aspirations of home buyers at an extremely attractive price point.
 
Dosti Realty has now launched a new cluster at the well-known Dosti Greater Thane located at Kalher which is just 7 km from Viviana Mall, Thane, and just 4 km from Balkum, Thane. This new cluster comprises 1 BHK homes with a RERA Carpet of 24.98 sq. meters. (269 sq.ft.) and a Usable Carpet of 31.50 sq. meters. (339 sq.ft.) at an attractive price of just Rs 34.40 Lakhs as an all-inclusive price. What's more, is that for a limited time, only the price is the same no matter which floor one buys.
 
The project Dosti Greater Thane is the first well-planned gated community in the Kalher location and will be developed in Phases. It has been designed by the renowned Architect Hafeez Contractor and will include a 1 Lakh sq.ft. private Clubhouse* and proposed ICSE school which are also being planned in the vicinity of the project. The project will also have high-street retail shopping, so one's everyday needs will be taken care of within the complex itself. The Dosti Greater Thane layout has been designed to create a balance between nature and lifestyle, with 70% green open spaces and will have 1100+ trees. The project will also lead by example in terms of building environmental consciousness due to various green features.
 
Commenting on the project launch Mr. Anuj Goradia – Director, Dosti Realty says, "The year 2020 and 2021 has highlighted the importance of a well-planned home with facilities. We realised there is still high demand for a quality product. This is a large-scale gated community that we plan on developing and we hope to keep pushing the limits with each new cluster we launch."
 
Ms. Shraddha Goradia – Director, Dosti Realty adds, "Given the fact that Dosti Greater Thane is just 4 km from Balkum, Thane (W) but offers prices much lower than Thane, it is accessible to a much larger group of home buyers who desire a quality lifestyle in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region but have kept away due to high prices. Buying a home is always a good investment and owning a home is a dream for most people. The brand name Dosti Realty plays a significant role especially in selling an under-construction project."
 
Mr. Nitin Nagpal – Director Sales and Marketing, Dosti Realty comments, "We are adopting a simple marketing approach that highlights some of the USP's of the project namely location, amenities, construction quality and price. Another plus point for Dosti Greater Thane is the proximity of the Metro Line 5 which will have the Kalher station just outside the project. Overall, Dosti Greater Thane is the ideal proposition for serious home buyers and investors alike who are in the pursuit of an amplified livability index and ROI prospects."
 
Strategically located in Kalher, the project lends prospective buyers a chance to own a home in this high-growth corridor. Given its proximity to Thane and with numerous locations radiating around it, it will soon become a prime spot for home investors alongside topping the charts for retail, commercial, and warehousing spaces. It is expected to witness a significant scope for future capital appreciation and rental income. The under-construction Metro Line 5 (Thane-Bhiwandi-Kalyan) passes the project with Kalher station just outside, while the proposed Mumbai-Ahmedabad bullet train will pass through the project land bank.
 
Once the entire project is completed it will have a host of indoor and outdoor amenities for residents. Dosti Club Novo a private clubhouse* spanning over 1 Lakh sq.ft. will include a Lap Pool, Kid's Pool, Jacuzzi, Aqua Gym, Half Basketball Court, Tennis Courts, Amphitheatre, Jogging Track, Kids' Play Area, Skating Area, Cricket Pitch, Futsal Court, Orchard Walk, Restaurant, Video Games, Badminton Courts, Billiards, Music Room, Table Tennis, Gymnasium, Carrom and Cards Room, Spa, Mini Theatre, Banquet Halls Guest Rooms. Outdoor Gyms, Interactive Seating, Senior Citizen's Seating, Amphitheatre, Volleyball Court, Multipurpose lawn, Gazebo seating and more. So there is something for all age groups to enjoy.
 
Besides this, each cluster will have its own set of outdoor amenities. The outdoor amenities within the new cluster include a jogging track, multipurpose lawn, seating areas, kids play areas, gazebos, an amphitheater, lawn, multipurpose court, floor games, outdoor gym and skating rink.
 
Other planned infrastructural developments that will lend impetus to this location include Metro lines 4 and 10, Virar Alibaug Multi-Modal Transport Corridor, Thane Borivali Tunnel, Thane Waterways, RO-RO waterways, and CST-Thane underground railway line, Thane- Dombivali Bridge, Proposed Eastern Freeway Extension from Chembur to Thane and Proposed Coastal Road from Balkum to Gaimukh are all set to enhance transport linkages in this belt. The government's efforts in pursuit of scaling up infrastructural projects in and around Thane have contributed to a strategic escalation in the price structure for properties in this area. Thane and the Greater Thane locations which were once considered industrial hubs, have evolved into a multitude of warehouses, logistics centres and residential developments. Be it the widening of internal roads or the construction of flyovers to connect Thane and the surrounding areas like Kalher, Kasheli, etc to its neighbourhoods, several tangible steps have been taken to enhance the area's connectivity.
 
With an unmatched infrastructural boom combined with promising real estate prospects. The future is playing a major role in accelerating the valuation of Thane and its surrounding locations of Kalher, Kasheli etc making it one of the best times to invest in these locations.

An 83-year-old patient in Jammu was in a critical state with ongoing severe breathlessness and was found to have low BP (cardiogenic shock) and acute heart failure with a critically narrowed aortic valve and very low heart pumping capacity. In view of the critically narrowed aortic valve and the ongoing critical condition of the patient, a heart team meeting was held, and everyone was of the opinion that the patient needs urgent aortic valve replacement to save his life, but open-heart surgery would be very risky for such a patient.

Dr Prashant Dwivedi saw the patient, met with his family, and then performed a Transcatheter aortic valve implantation for the patient. The patient responded remarkably well to this therapy, and by the next morning, he had started walking and came out from the ICU, and after two days, he was discharged to go home walking with significant improvement in his heart's functioning.

In daily lives, people encounter others in their immediate circle who have been diagnosed with heart disease; some are managed medically, while others require intervention or surgery, depending on the disease and its complexity. Generally, a cardiac-related disease could be related to the structure of the heart, creating functional difficulties in the heart, or it could be related to the coronary arteries (the vessels that supply blood to the heart for its functioning), or it could also be related to the rhythm (electrical system) disturbances of the heart.

Know more about TAVI from Dr Prashant Dwivedi
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y8MgTivE80&t=1s

Whether the patient is experiencing symptoms or not, treatment is a must for severe aortic stenosis. Until a few years ago, the primary treatment option for patients with aortic stenosis was surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR), which was carried out by making a large incision on the patient's chest. This allows the surgeons to access the diseased aortic valve, which is then removed and replaced with a new prosthetic valve. But almost 30% of the patients are not eligible for surgery owing to multiple conditions. For these patients, the TAVR/TAVI (transcatheter aortic valve replacement) technique has proved to be a boon.

TAVR, or transcatheter aortic valve replacement, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses cardiac catheterization techniques to replace the damaged valve. TAVR can help restore blood flow and reduce the signs and symptoms of aortic valve stenosis. Unlike surgical aortic valve replacement, which requires general anaesthesia and a long incision down the chest (open-heart surgery), TAVR is done using smaller incisions and a thin, flexible tube (catheter) to reach the heart. To perform TAVR, a very small incision is made in the groin area, and a compressed valve is inserted through a catheter into the heart. Moving X-ray images or echocardiogram pictures help place the catheter in the correct position.

In the last 15 years with the help of newer innovations, rapidly evolving newer technologies, dedicated training, and expertise; now not only the aortic valve but also the other three heart valves (mitral, pulmonary, and tricuspid valve) can also be replaced by transcatheter technique. Millions of patients worldwide who were previously deemed unfit or at high risk for open heart surgery have been benefited from new transcatheter-based therapy for valve problems. This therapy brought new hope for these patients as it allows them to get a minimally invasive procedure without general anaesthesia, without a scar, with no major compromise in lifestyle, and with a faster recovery than surgery.

Under the leadership of Dr. Samin K. Sharma & Dr Ajeet Bana, the Structural Heart Team at Eternal Hospital has achieved many milestones and making it a preferred destination for complete heart care and treatment.

Dr. Prashant Dwivedi, In-charge TAVR & structural heart program at Eternal (EHCC) Hospital, Jaipur is one of the very few interventional structural cardiologists in India who has been dedicatedly trained in complex coronary and structural interventions, including TAVR, TMVR, Mitra Clip, left atrial appendage device closure, and other complex structural heart interventions.

  • The Centre will link academia and policymakers from India and beyond on a broad mandate that will cover issues of the economy, border communities, geopolitics and the ecology of the wider Himalayan region.
  • Going beyond the Himalayas itself, the Centre's geographical coverage will include the Hindu Kush and the Karakoram regions and the governments and polities that have political jurisdiction over them.
 
The Shiv Nadar Institution of Eminence today announced the creation of a new institute committed to studying and contributing to the Himalayan region that will cover a broad canvas of areas linked to local livelihoods, identities, geopolitics, and the environment in this geographically wide and diverse ecosystem.
 
The new Centre of Excellence for Himalayan Studies at the Shiv Nadar Institution of Eminence aims to engender a three-way conversation between central and local governments, academia and the people who live in the region even as it remains attuned to geopolitics and the policy imperatives that surround it. The Centre, in fact, will cover not just the Himalayas but the Hindu Kush and Karakoram regions as well and the local governments and polities that have political jurisdiction over them.
 
Announcing the launch of the Centre, Dr. Ananya Mukherjee, Vice Chancellor, Shiv Nadar IoE said, "the Himalayas have been central to socio-political interactions, cross-border trade, and crucial environmental concerns. The focus areas include what we call – HIMALAYAS+ – which includes the region spread across the Karakoram Ranges, Hindu Kush, and the Himalayas. This politically translates to countries spread from Central Asia to Myanmar that collectively share ecosystems, rich biodiversity, rivers, and cultures. The Centre intends to fill the absence of a single national-level institution to explore a wide variety of disciplinary and sectoral approaches to the study of this region… It will seek to answer crucial questions across the spectrum of environment, energy, security, growth and development and provide a platform for constructive engagement between different stakeholder groups."
 
Highlighting the objectives of the Centre for Himalayan Studies, Dr. Jabin T. Jacob, Associate Professor, Department of International Relations and Governance Studies, Shiv Nadar IoE remarked, "The wider Himalayas is a politically-fraught region that simultaneously struggles with a range of environmental challenges. Often one or the other aspect is side-lined or ignored altogether. The range of other challenges before governments in the region and outside cannot blind us to the fact that what happens here has implications not just for the region itself but for everyone on the planet. From climate change-induced floods and migration to political instability and unsettled borders, the world ought to be paying more attention. The Centre aims to convert the wide array of research already taking place in and about the region into a form that is more accessible to the public and policymakers and to drive further research as well as flag areas of concern."
 
The Centre will reflect the University's global outlook and international ambitions, identifying and creating a network of scholars in the field, both in India and abroad.
