Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

Builder has been delaying plot in new chandigarh for more than 13 years and now offering some amount, a little more than what we can get from RERA or court, which is SBI marginal lending rate on principal amount.

But all near by properties prices have been increased manifold. Around 2 crore rupees, builder is offering 87 lakhs and from past judgement in court , we can recieve 70 lakhs.

Please guide what should be done in such cases, 
Shall we just go to court and get interest till date of posession waiting hopelessly as builder is upfront saying, he can't say when will prokect get completed as govt. Is not giving clearance.

Should i widthraw from construction project if builder has delayed 13 years for low price?

Liabilities and high interest loans rising, household savings falling. It's a very worrying statistic if people are borrowing money just to stay afloat.

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Hey everyone! 
Sorry for the title. 

I had applied for a company, based out of Hyderabad. A startup, hiring for its founding full-stack engineer. 
The founder had sent their calendly link to schedule the meeting. 
I scheduled once, joined and waited long enough to receive an email saying that he got caught up in another meeting. The email explicitly said how sorry they were. 
Scheduled again, cancelled 5 mins prior because of a conflicting meeting. 
They apologized again, sent the calendly link, I rescheduled. I had an personal emergency because of which I couldn't attend so I sent an email, 5 MINS BEFORE THE MEETING STARTED, asking to reschedule. 
They shared the link, I rescheduled and they completely ghosted me. 

They think they belong to the top of the world or something, because of a fricking startup? Although it's YC funded but that doesn't give them horns! 
So I'm going to name and shame the company.

This hits hard

Because that money doesn't actually reach them.

"While public sector insurance companies settled 90 per cent of farmers’ claims, private sector companies such as Bharti AXA, Reliance General Insurance, and Future General India Insurance pocketed enormous profits of nearly Rs 39,201 crores without paying farmers their rightful dues."

How does a farmer claim insurance? By logging onto a mobile app. How many farmers are tech literate enough to use insurance apps in India? No one cares

The governmentâ€™s ambitious flagship Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana is marred by allegations of irregularities. Read this!

Why the Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana needs a complete revamp

But bro why not give farmers insurance instead of msp

If basic needs are met why will a human work hard.

How long can this scheme run?
Andra pradesh Govt is bankrupt and economy is slowing there.

What are your views? I feel rich can always move abroad, it's the middle class who may get hit the most.

What should I do to reach 100 cr in 10-15 years?

I'm an ambitious person who can work his ass off. But I lack direction, I don't know what I should do to get there.

Any answer can give me a better perspective. But please refrain from questioning the ambition.

I'm in tech and I make 22 lacs/year (4 years of exp)

My current portfolio split up:
6 lacs - Nifty 50 MF
5 lacs - FD
10-20 lacs - real estate

20 lacs to 100 crores

1. Wake up at 4am 
 2. Plan the day ahead by brainstorming new ideas for profitability 
 3. Go to gym, invest in your body 
 4. Reach out to your customers before your morning coffee, helps set the tone for the day. 
 5. Rob a bank 
 6. Repeat till you reach your target of 100 crores.

I legitimately find it concerning that so many Grapeviners are not just conservatives but outright Sanghis who betray their intelligence with 5th standard debate tactics or just outright hate. Some quick pointers before you come at me with pitchforks

1) I voted for Modi in 2014 but then from 2019 onwards I changed my mind (more on that later)

2) Almost everyone here belongs to the urban elite who have voted for BJP. However, the so-called educated elite feels that the everyday uneducated common man is dumb. Education does not equal intelligence (correlated yes, but not an indicator). If you don't like how a significant portion of India you never see or interact with voted, tough luck, welcome to democracy. 

3) Also is this result, really so bad? It's stupid to think that the BJP as the sole ruling party is good for the country. Great for your stocks on the Sensex and MFs but not for the actual common man. They are the silent majority who make the country run and they just let everyone know that although there has been an economic boom, they have been left out. 

4) Take a chill pill. The India story is still alive and well. In fact, having some diverse voices can help a democracy. Not ram-rodding bills that everyone from farmers to jobless youth hate can be good. You just have to learn to play with others & listen for once.

Finally, I supported Modi because I was tired of Congress shenanigans and I supported him up to demonetisation. However, the blatant horse-trading, the weaponisation of ED, Hindu vs <insert religious minority> rhetoric and the lack of any balls to face unscripted questions in TEN years made me change my mind. 

PS: The knee-jerk reaction of every sanghi here is to deploy "What about X & Y", I will not respond to any of those arguments because that's just a week cop-out. Judge yourselves on your own merits, not that you are somehow less evil.

Jai Hind. Jai Bharath. Aam Aadmi Zindabad.

Apart from equities and MFs, what according to you guys can be a good investment opportunity, if you’re ready to put in some money and can get loan if needed to start it. Real estate in blr seems super saturated. Are there good places where you can still buy plot in decent prices? Or start any new business (not a scaled startup) ?

New investment opportunities ?

My father's shop is on first floor. It has 3 stairs to reach the shop. One stair is clearly on outside and it is kind of obstacle for back side land. One person has bought back side land and gave us warning that please remove the outside stairs. My father protested and in land papers it is written that one stairs should be present. But it is not written in papers that which stairs should be taken accountable. So my father has some contacts and contacted one of his nagarpalika friend. My father's friend had brought temporary stay. That gunda mafia came to my fathers shop and asked to remove the stairs. My father shown him shop papers. Now same gunda mafia removed same outside stairs midnight. There are 2-3 people affected due to same action. None is ready to take action. My father is also not ready to take action as he switched his business and not using same shop. The problem is it will bring down the evaluation of shop. Should i fight or should i just leave it? If i have to fight ,how can i move legally

One gunda mafia in my town removed stairs

Inspite of so many "better than earlier govts" reforms in the last 10 years...the govt hasnt done much needed reforms in the income tax regime.

The govt is doing a few good things like dissolving inept psu's, selling off entities like Air India (privatisation), etc.
But when and how  are we going to increase the tax base?? Why is govt failing to do so? It is high time we rationalise it. We cannot dream of becoming a prosperous country with such poor policies in place

Inept income tax dept

In two different minds here

Of late I have been watching many India glorifying movies/shows - Rocketry, Manikarnika, Rocket Boys. 
On other hand, riots based on community and religion make me wonder how can people put own country down.

Then, I am paying for 2.5 months of salary in tax. But am I benefitting from it? The road outside house has been broken before monsoons, gets even worse now.
Also read this tweet in the morning

and wondered if the love for country just blind.

"BYJU’S grew considerably since our first investment in 2018, but, over time, its reporting and governance structures did not evolve sufficiently for a company of that scale. Despite repeated efforts from our Director, executive leadership at BYJU’S regularly disregarded advice and recommendations relating to strategic, operational, legal, and corporate governance matters. The decision for our Director to step down from the BYJU’S Board was taken after it became clear that he was unable to fulfil his fiduciary duty to serve the long-term interests of the Company and its stakeholders."

This is major - Prosus just publically said that BYJU's had improper governance and failed to improve despite their recommendations

Largest shareholder saying this publicly, I wonder if there is any way of recovering from this point
