THIS IS #BIG ! #Hawala 2.0 Will EXPLODE in India post JULY 1st. Just My opinion:

By IMPLEMENTING 20% Tax Collected On Source (#TCS) on Foreign Spend (Currency, FX cards, Credit Cards, Debit Cards, Transfers), it becomes Increasingly more Cost Effective to Transfer Via #Hawala Image
If you try and BUY #Foreign Currency in the Black, that spread that used to be 2-3%, will now become 10% possibly

Unused Balances of Loaded Forex Cards will Go at a Premium of 10-12% Image
This REMINDS me of what happened in GOLD SMUGGLING in India post June 2022 when @nsitharaman decided to Raise IMPORT duty on GOLD to 12.5% from previous levels of 7.5% ImageImage

Investors prefer liquid funds for building an emergency corpus.

Now that the taxation of debt funds has changed, investors are looking for alternatives.

One option is Arbitrage funds. They offer a #tax advantage.

We compare both categories to see which is better.

A thread 🧵 Image
Let’s start with the basics: What are Arbitrage Funds?

These are part of the hybrid fund category and invest in arbitrage opportunities.

They follow complex methods.

But to understand the concept, let’s look at a simple example. 👇
Say #Infosys is trading at a higher price on #NSE compared to BSE.

So, the fund manager buys Infosys on BSE and sells on NSE simultaneously.

Usually, these funds look for mispricing opportunities in the ‘Cash’ and the ‘Futures & Options' markets.

The latest Sovereign Gold Bond (SGB) issue is open till Mar 10.

You can buy 1 gram (or 1 unit) of SGB at Rs 5,561.

But there’s a cheaper alternative.

You can buy previous issues of SGBs on #stock exchanges at a 5-6% discount. (Check image)

Should you buy them?

A 🧵
First, some quick facts.

Each SGB unit equals 1 gram of gold (999 purity).

New issues are sold through #banks.

There’s a Rs 50 discount on online purchases.

After the issue is over, #SGB is listed on stock exchanges.

This gives you the option to exit before maturity.
SGBs mature in 8 years.

But they have a 5-year lock-in, which means you have the option to exit after 5 years.

On redemption, you get the prevailing market price of gold.

Plus, you earn an #interest of 2.5% every year on the issue price.

A simple hack helps you save tax on #stocks and #mutualfunds.

Here’s what you do:

- Sell your investments
- Book profits & losses
- Repurchase immediately

This is called Tax Harvesting

A 🧵on how it’s done.
Let’s first talk about the #tax on #equities.

The profit you book is divided into two buckets.

1. Shot term: If you sell within one year (of purchase)
2. Long-term: If you sell after one year

You pay a higher tax for short-term profits and lower for long-term (Check table)
Now, let’s jump to the sweet part - how to reduce taxes?

You pay LTCG tax only when your gains exceed Rs 1 lakh.

So the trick is not to let your gains go beyond this tax-free limit.

How to do it? Sell a part of your gains to book LTCG and reinvest it.

An example will help.👇

How many Indians earn more than Rs 10 lakh a year? The answer is 81 lakh in FY21, according to a Lok Sabha reply filed today. In FY15 it was just 22.5 lakh, which implies growth of almost 4x in 6 years. The highest tax bracket kicks in at this level (under old tax regime). #tax
The number of people in the 5-10 lakh bracket is up from 53.3 lakh in FY15 to 1.4 crore - a growth of almost 3 times. The total number of taxpayers in India has also grown from 4 crore in FY15 to 6.33 crore in FY 21, but this is much slower than the growth in higher tax brackets.
Inequality or growth? I take it positively. More people are migrating from the lowest tax bracket to higher brackets than are being added in the lowest bracket. The great Indian middle class is expanding. A long way to go, but today's data should give us some cheer.

Strange headline @BBCNews, which doesn't line up much with the content

Have to say, my least fav. way to start 'evidence' part of an article is with an interested party. This one starts by citing one tax advisor, who says potential tax changes are first topic of conversatn with his clients. I mean, 🤯? What else would you talk to tax advisor abt??
Then this famous graph based on the drop in the number of non-doms

My excellent colleague @D_Burgherr has said everything that needs to be said about this already.

FWIW, here are my three takeaways from #JeremyHunt's interview in the Times:

1. Welcome emphasis on encouraging over-50s back to work. This is long overdue, and will need more than just exhortations and gimmicky 'MOT' schemes, but he seems to get this...

thetimes.co.uk/article/jeremy…
2. 'Putting sound money before Tory ideology' is a good line: if badly done, tax cuts could keep #inflation high and add to pressure on interest rates.

But still wrong to rule them out: well-targeted cuts could help with both demand and supply, boosting growth without inflation.
3. Prioritising cuts in business rather than personal taxes is not a bad idea: could do more for supply-side performance, with less risk of inflation.

The distinction between the two is blurred anyway: the burden of corporate taxation is ultimately borne by real people.
