Go through any country's shadow economy after implementing GST or any reforms It will struggle to adjust to reforms for a whole, and later will adjust and will grow Few personal experiences will not change the data, trumpet blowing for the individual encounters will only shows the precipitation of onez...

Unfortunately few middle n upper middle class people's voice is echoing positive vibes regarding reforms, these people r always afraid of violating rule book, if they do they will be confessing to themselves People who bend the laws are always like that, they have nt changed... I already knew people who are under invoicing the transactions n goods to evade taxes... It's irrelevant how ur brother is paying wages , it's more important to show right amount of income And whether he is following the minimum wage rules and any penalty rates for over night works For civil works u usually hire casual labor and u don't need to pay PF kind of thing I will talk about banking sector reforms later Guntur, Hyderabad, Andhra, Telangana, Tamilnadu, Karnataka first....India last!!! |

Desam loo vunna.... I see considerable amount of changes in aam junta perceptions. Even though they are impacted, they are not pointing any finger towards Modi. My dad used to be banking sector and now he is working as a GM (Finance) for a decent size company and he is mentioning that all these changes are good for the country in the long term. My brother left IT job 4 years back and ventured into small scale civil works (partnership) and he mentioned that starting this year, he is paying most of his workers/suppliers (any amount of 10K or more) through checks and not cash anymore. So, change is in progress.......MODI is THE MAN for the country.... CHIRU - SACHIN - FEDERER |

Good job modi. you intentions are honest. If anybody believes black money gets resolved in a night, its show their understanding. I personally has seen impact of demonetization in my family and friend circle.recently they sold a land and got big offer for 30% black. They rejected and took all white offer at lower cost. its the effect of govt fight and policy against black money. People who used to loan money in private and never report income has changed their practices. corruption and balck money is an eco system. even if somewhere down the chain some thing changes, it will slowly spread to the top too. the story of YCP and TDP in 2014 (AP)- http://goo.gl/zgrYmQ http://goo.gl/gn6XL5 the story of TDP in 2014 (T) - http://goo.gl/nyu1Wu |

Teluguhero:More than Rs. 2 lakh crore black money has reached banks, says PM People responsible for 'loot' of national wealth will have to answer: PM Vowing to continue the crackdown on black money, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said that over Rs. 1.75 lakh crore deposited in banks post note-ban and more than 18 lakh people with disproportionate income are under government scrutiny.
Teluguhero:Demonetisation of old Rs. 500 and Rs. 1,000 notes last November, he said, helped bring over Rs. 3 lakh crore of unaccounted wealth into the banking system. "This is not government research this is outside experts," he added. Prime Minister Modi said that out of the money deposited in banks post notes ban, over Rs. 1.75 lakh crore is under scrutiny. "More than Rs. 2 lakh crore black money has reached banks and now people depositing such money are being made to answer questions on their origin." The move, he said, has checked generation of new black money. "The result of this has been that this year, the new tax payers (filing returns) has more than doubled to 56 lakh. Last year this was 22 lakh. This is the result of fight against black money," he said.

"More than Rs. 2 lakh crore black money has reached banks and now people depositing such money are being made to answer questions on their origin." The move, he said, has checked generation of new black money. "The result of this has been that this year, the new tax payers (filing returns) has more than doubled to 56 lakh. Last year this was 22 lakh. This is the result of fight against black money," he said. Prime Minister Modi, who had in 2014, promised to eliminate black money, said that the crackdown on ill-gotten wealth will continue. "More than 18 lakh people have been identified whose income is more than their declared wealth," he said. "And they have to answer questions on how they accumulated such wealth." Of the 18 lakh, 4.5 lakh people have come out in open and are seeking to amend their "mistakes," he said, adding that one lakh had not paid income tax ever in past. Recalling the steps taken by his government to unearth unaccounted and untaxed wealth, he said black money of over Rs. 1.25 lakh crore has been detected in last three years which people were compelled to surrender. Demonetisation, he said, was a step in that direction which achieved great success. The move forced "the black money which was hidden to be brought to mainstream. Our effort was to get money into banks and make it a part of formal economy and we have done it successfully," he said. Prime Minister Modi said in a nation where closure of a couple of companies would lead to debates on destruction of economy, more than 1.75 lakh shell companies have been shut down. Black money holders hid their wealth behind the veils of shell companies, he said. "After data mining post demonetisation, we have found 3 lakh such companies which are only shell companies." Shell companies are non-trading firms used as a vehicle for various financial manoeuvres to avoid paying taxes. "You will be surprised to know that there are 400 shell companies operating from same address. There was no enquiry and all of it was going on in connivance (between tax evaders and officials). And for this, I embarked on a fight against black money and corruption," he said. Notes ban, he said, got money into banks, which are now lowering interest rates. The common man is getting money. "Bank are lending to poor at lower interest rates. This is all working to boost the country's economy," he said. Prime Minister Modi stressed on digital payments to move towards less cash economy saying there has been 34 per cent increase in digital payments in last one year. In nearly an hour long speech, PM Modi said the implementation of Goods and Services Tax (GST), that subsumed over a dozen central and state levies to weave India into one market, has been smooth. "GST has shown the spirit of cooperative federalism. The nation has come together to support GST and the role of technology has also helped," he said. Removal of check posts after implementation of GST has cut time for transporting goods by 30 per cent, he said. The Prime Minister said for his government, good governance is about speed and simplification of processes. "Our fight against corruption and black money will continue. We are working to bring transparency using technology," he said. "We are fighting corruption - for the bright future of India and the well being of our people." People responsible for "loot" of national wealth will have to give answers, he said. "Our fight against corruption and black money will continue." Prime Minister Modi said changing demand and technology is altering the nature of job and his government wants to nurture youngsters to be job creators and not job seekers. "We are taking the nation on a new track (of development) and are moving ahead with speed," he said, adding that the government was devoting significant attention to eastern Uttar Pradesh, eastern states of Bihar, Assam, West Bengal, Odisha and Northeast. "These parts have to grow further," he said. Prime Minister Modi said he wants to create an India where poor have a concrete house, electricity and water. "An India where farmer does not have any worry and sleeps peacefully. An India where farmer gets double of what he sows." |
