CORPORATE TAX REDUCTION IN INDIA: Will it really help in raising the Growth Rate?

:

1. Ans: The Savings made by Corporates owing to reduction of Corporate Tax, they may not invest in Manufacturing Activities in the same Companies or in some other Companies.


2. Corporates prefer to invest their surpluses into Non-productive Investments like Commodity Speculation, Gold Speculation, Stock Market Speculation, Real Estate Speculation.


3. If surpluses are still left, Corporates will buy Properties in London. If there is more money, they will buy Islands , Yatches, and Private Aircraft.


4. Corporates not only use their own Profits, Reserves, and other surpluses for Speculation and Investment abroad, but also they are capable of diverting Loan Funds obtained from Indian Private and Public Sector Banks, as there is poor supervision in Indian Banks, about end use of funds.


5. Today, if we buy a biscuit packet, with Unit price of Rs. 101 per kg, we have to pay GST @ 18%. And, we are not sure whether the Biscuit Manufacturer will remit that 18% to Government or not. Is a biscuit packet with a Unit price of Rs. 101 per kg. a luxury? And one large Biscuit Company paid a dividend of 1500% during 2018-19! Of course, one can always say that the share price of that Company is Rs. 2,867/-, and the effective yield is only 0.52%. Who asked the foolish Investors to push the Share Price to Rs. 2,867/-, of the Company's share which has a face value of Rs. 1/-? Owing to artificial uplift of share prices, though the divident rate is 15 times the face value, effective return appears low! Those foolish Investors should have started their own Biscuit Manufacturing Company! They do not start. This is the bane of India.

CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIONS, are they not possible without intimidation of suspects in Police Stations?

:


1. Everyday, we see in Print/Electronic Media news about individuals committing suicides after being threatened by investigating officials or after being harassed with third degree methods.


2. The Police officials know that Confessional Statements obtained from Accused, using coercive methods do not really serve as valid evidence in Courts.


3. The intent of the Police Officials in using third degree methods, appear to be that if the Accused persons show them places where they have hidden weapons and other articles relating to the crime, such articles seized with their help, will serve as acceptable evidence.


4. Suspects belonging to the Poor and downtrodden Sections seem to be at the receiving end of the threats and tortures in Police Stations. Unable to bear such tortures, sometimes poor persons confess the crimes, though they are not guilty.


5. Police do not dare to threaten or torture powerful and influenced persons, because that will boomerang on the Officials themselves. (994)
