Indian Tycoons

Gold jewellery buyers are likely to pay closer attention to hallmarking as a major change in the cost of hallmarking has been introduced ahead of the festive and wedding season. The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) has increased the hallmarking fee charged for gold jewellery. The fee has gone up by around 67% , with the charge increasing from ₹45 to ₹75 for each gold jewellery article . The revision comes at a time when demand for gold jewellery typically becomes important during festivals and weddings. While the higher hallmarking fee is directly applicable to jewellers rather than customers, it could increase the cost of doing business for jewellery retailers. Here is what the new change means and what consumers should know before buying gold. Gold Hallmarking Fee Increased From ₹45 to ₹75 Under the revised fee structure, jewellers will now have to pay ₹75 per gold jewellery article for hallmarking. Earlier, the charge was ₹45. The difference is ₹30 per article, representing an incr...

Property Rules: पेइंग गेस्ट (PG) या किराए का कमरा छोड़ने के बाद सिक्योरिटी डिपॉजिट यानी जमा राशि वापस न मिलना किरायेदार और मकान मालिक के बीच विवाद का बड़ा कारण बन सकता है। कई किरायेदारों को यह जानकारी नहीं होती कि मकान मालिक डिपॉजिट में से कब पैसे काट सकता है, कितनी कटौती की जा सकती है और अगर बाकी रकम वापस नहीं मिल रही है तो क्या कदम उठाए जा सकते हैं। अगर आप किसी PG या किराए के मकान में रहते हैं या हाल ही में वहां से कमरा खाली किया है, तो अपने अधिकारों के साथ-साथ किराए और डिपॉजिट से जुड़े जरूरी दस्तावेजों को सुरक्षित रखना भी महत्वपूर्ण है। PG छोड़ने के बाद सिक्योरिटी डिपॉजिट का क्या होगा? सिर्फ PG या किराए का कमरा छोड़ने के कारण मकान मालिक को आपका पूरा सिक्योरिटी डिपॉजिट अपने पास रखने का अधिकार नहीं मिल जाता। किराए के समझौते की शर्तों और लागू कानूनों के आधार पर मकान मालिक कुछ वैध बकाया रकम डिपॉजिट से काट सकता है। इसमें बकाया किराया, बिजली या पानी का बिल और किरायेदार की वजह से हुए वास्तविक नुकसान की उचित भरपाई जैसी रकम शामिल हो सकती है। हालांकि, वास्तविक नुकसान और सामान्य टूट-फूट (Norm...

कॉर्पोरेट दुनिया को अक्सर सफलता, ऊंचे पद, बड़े ऑफिस और बेहतर अवसरों की दुनिया के रूप में देखा जाता है। लेकिन इस चमकदार दुनिया के भीतर कई ऐसे रिश्ते, संघर्ष और परिस्थितियां भी होती हैं, जिनकी चर्चा आमतौर पर खुले तौर पर नहीं होती। कौन मेहनत के दम पर आगे बढ़ता है, कौन प्रभाव के सहारे अपनी जगह बनाता है और कौन सच बोलने की कीमत चुकाता है—इन्हीं सवालों के बीच लेखिका अलका मिश्रा (मिंकी) की पुस्तक ‘कॉर्पोरेट दरबार’ अपनी अलग पहचान बनाती है। ‘कुर्सी, चापलूसी और सच के बीच फंसे लोग’ किताब की मूल भावना को काफी हद तक सामने रखता है। यह पुस्तक कॉर्पोरेट जीवन को केवल नौकरी, लक्ष्य और प्रमोशन तक सीमित नहीं करती, बल्कि उसके पीछे काम करने वाली मानवीय सोच और व्यवहार को देखने का प्रयास करती है। कुर्सी के साथ बदलते रिश्तों की कहानी किसी भी संगठन में पद की अपनी एक ताकत होती है। एक व्यक्ति के पास जब जिम्मेदारी और अधिकार आता है, तो उसके आसपास के लोगों का व्यवहार भी बदल सकता है। जो लोग कल तक सामान्य सहकर्मी थे, वे आज महत्वपूर्ण बन जाते हैं और जो कल बहुत करीब थे, वे परिस्थितियों के बदलने के साथ दूर भी हो सकते हैं।...

Buying a flat gives you a place to call your own. You can decorate it, furnish it and make it comfortable for your family. But there is an important difference between decorating your home and changing the property itself . Many apartment owners discover this only after starting a renovation project. A contractor may tell you, “It is your flat, so you can do whatever you want.” A neighbour may say, “Everyone in the building has already done it.” But neither statement automatically makes a renovation legally permissible. From enclosing a balcony to removing a wall, some seemingly simple changes can require permission from the housing society or the relevant local authority. In Maharashtra's model housing-society bye-laws, for example, members are required to obtain the committee's prior written permission for additions or alterations to their flats, while structural changes require permission from the competent local authority. So before handing your keys to a contractor, here a...
