Will Carpet Area Based Price Influence Home Prices?

Despite union government’s ardent instruction several states failed to meet the deadline of state real estate rules notification. West Bengal is one of those states, who has yet not finalized their drafts. RERA came into force on May 1, 2017. Central government has extended the time period for another 3 months, which completes on July 1. But sooner or later RERA will be implemented in West Bengal too, and according to that as potential buyers one should know how it would regulate the residential property sale in Kolkata.

The central Real Estate Regulation and Development Act (RERA) has been diluted by several states which have by far notified their state RERA norms. As per RERA developers must upload their project details, step-by-step development process (3 months basis) on RERA official site followed by the personal details of himself. Documents related to the project and land for e.g.- land registration, clearance certificate, title deed everything need to be visible before the potential investors. The unadulterated execution of RERA in Bengal will genuinely push the residential property sale in Kolkata, securing buyers’ interest throughout.

RERA will focus on the carpet area based price for the both commercial and residential properties across the country. As of now the residential property sale in Kolkata has been practicing based on the super-built area, but after May 01, carpet area of the property will be set as a key parameter of the project pricing starting from affordable to ultra luxury projects.

Let’s know about the carper area based pricing

Any property in north Kolkata with a super built area of 1500 sq ft in prime location, worth selling price of Rs. 5200 per sq ft, randomly we assume that within this 1500 sq area 1100-1200 sq ft is the carpet area of the very property and the remaining 300-400 sq ft is space is occupied by the walls, staircase, passage, lift etc. With the RERA implementation buyers are likely to pay for only the carpet area of the apartment.

How will it impact realty transaction?

Let’s us tell you property price is not going to fall in the coming years or soon, neither promoters will pay from their pocket for the common shared area of the apartments. Developers will include this price in the selling price of the property and for the eternity buyers will have to pay this cost. This particular execution is only to clarify the confusion of buyers related to super-built and carpet area, as mostly they are seen mixing the both terms and whirled in the trickery of the builders. This process will clarify the ambiguity between buyers and the builders.

Asking about the present status of residential property sale in Kolkata and upcoming RERA implementation in West Bengal, the RERA expert of WB chapter Mr. Mahesh Somani said, “The new pricing model will be a uniform platform for both the buyers and the builders. Buyer will be more aware of what they are paying for. Real estate practice will gain its much-awaited trustworthiness, as it’s surely going to strengthen the bond between buyer and seller. Else RERA has legal route for both of them.”

For residential property sale in Kolkata Mr. Somani added, “Not only in Kolkata RERA implementation is likely to fetch foreign investment and positive investments from reliable sources in the realty sector. But carpet based pricing won’t directly affect the pricing of projects.”

What is Sovereign Gold Bond scheme?

The History of Gold

Currency notes globally used to be backed by actual gold 50 years ago! In current times, as people get more disillusioned by the paper money being printed by nations to pump liquidity in global markets, gold as storage of value and investment becomes important. India is the biggest consumer of gold in the world and in 2020-2021 alone we imported INR 2.5L crore (~US$ 34 bn).

However, STOP buying physical gold as a form of investment and storage of your wealth when you can buy Sovereign Gold Bonds instead!

Buy Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGBs)

Gold Bonds are government securities issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and are backed by the Government of India by actual physical gold that it owns. The price of the SGBs is directly linked with price of physical gold. This is a security issued mostly for retail investors and includes applications by HUF/trusts. In a single year, an individual or HUF can apply for a minimum of 1 gram and a maximum of 4 kg in gold bonds. For entities, trusts and corporations, however, the maximum threshold increases to 20 kg. SGB also pays an annual interest of 2.5% and issued for a tenor of 8 years.

Individuals can invest in SGBs and hold it in their demat account without facing the burden of investing in physical gold.

The RBI introduced SGBs under the Gold Monetization Scheme in 2015. The RBI announces the issue of these bonds in a press release and investors can only purchase these bonds within a one-week window almost every month.

What are the benefits of Gold Bonds?

Lowest risk - SGBs are issued by the RBI on behalf of the Government of India. This is the lowest financial risk possible as your money is assured by the government itself.

No storage hassle - Physical Gold has issues with storage and safety. It also needs guarding against potential theft plus concerns with transportation. SGBs on the other hand are in your demat account in the form of digital security.

Additional Interest income - Physical gold is a ‘dead’ investment since it earns you only potential capital gains. SGBs on the other hand get you capital gains as well as pay you interest of 2.5% annually without any TDS. So, if you keep your bonds for 8 years, you have made 20% more versus physical gold!

Zero capital gains tax - As the bond pays the underlying price of gold in 8 years at redemption, there are zero capital gains tax on any gains that you make due to gold appreciation. This is not the case for physical gold and therefore is a huge advantage!

Liquidity/transferability - Sovereign gold bonds can easily be bought online and even transferred to someone else. Since they are listed on the exchange, you can even trade them in the secondary market. This is not the case with physical gold

Loan Collateral - You can easily use your SGB as collateral and take a loan upto 75% of its value usually. IndiaBonds is happy to facilitate this for you.

Stable Investment - Gold prices are less reactive to market fluctuations and therefore, they’re a relatively stable and secure investment.

Investing in Sovereign Gold Bonds with IndiaBonds

IndiaBonds makes it easier for investors to buy Sovereign Gold Bonds online. Invest from the comfort of your living room!

  - It’s easy, convenient and hassle free  - Get Rs 50 as discount on your transaction  - Simplified payment methods  - Get Assistance from experts in case of queries

Invest in just 3 simple steps :

Select - Go online on indiabonds and select the amount you want to invest

Verify - Do a simple KYC for identification purposes and link your demat and bank accounts.

Online payment - Make your payments using established online payment portals and book your gold bonds! Sovereign Gold Bonds are really a gift given all the advantages and ease of investment. It’s time to invest on you own or even gift it to your loved ones!

Gold Facts : Were you aware of some of these interesting facts on the yellow metal?!

- In early civilizations it was signified as a sign of power, beauty and even immortality.- Gold doesn’t ever corrode, rust or oxidize- You cannot burn gold- It retains its shine and purity even if its’s placed in water for years- It is malleable (can be melted), transformed into different shapes and is easy for transportation- Gold was used as a medium of exchange for international trade as early as 1500 BC by Egyptian empire- Use of gold coins as monetary system was wide at the height of Roman empire in 50-150 AD- Most of the modern world nations continued to use gold for global trade and store of value in 20th century until 1976 when US stopped backing their currency with gold (Bretton Woods accord) and hence started the use of paper money- Gold melts only at 1,064 degrees centigrade temperature!

Stocks

ITC

 Buy at any cost

 Target Rs. 2,000/-

Within five years

 I have already written 2–3 blogs on ITC in which I have emphasized that ITC is a very good share as the company is cash rich , there is no problem of corporate governance in it as was the case of companies like Yes Bank, Well diversified portfolio from Tobacco to Hotels, FMCG ( That too having portfolio of almost all categories flour,spices ,Dairy articles, personal wash, skincare, ready to eat,chocolate, Hot and cold Beverages, stationary ), Retail, Agribusiness, Paperboard. Currently the company is in transformation stage and is reinventing itself and completely transforming into a FMCG company. The company aims to have a revenue of 1 lakh crore by 2030. Currently the share is undervalued at Rs 189. Its current P/E ratio of 17.07 is much lower than P/E ratio of its equivalent counterpart in FMCG I.e HUL which is 73.07.

 One should not aim for ITC for 250 levels which it will cross in 7–8 months. Rather if you are holding ITC then you should aim for 1500–2000 levels. Which it will touch in 5–7 years.

 Here I would like to take the case of HUL and Reliance industries which were trading at much lower levels then their current levels . Both of these companies were trading at very lower prices till the time these two companies were transforming themselves. HUL was trading at Rs 250–Rs 300 levels in the year 2001–2009 and then when it got transformed itself then we can see the current price of HUL which is more than 2000. Now one has to think in investing in it.

 Similarly till the time Reliance was building it JIO business and Retail business it was trading at much lower levels at Rs 700–800. And when this year when there has been some positive news about Reliance whether it is company going debt free, series of investment by major PE companies in JIo business or Reliance purchasing Future group to become the major company in Retail.Result is very much visible. The same share of Reliance got a rally from Rs 700–750 levels and reached to 2000+ levels and will further go upside from here.

 There is one more thing which can not be neglected about ITC and that is its devidend paying. The company in special resolution this year decided to pay 80–85% of PAT as devidend to its share holders and as a result. Its shareholders got devidend of Rs 10.15 per share. Which as per its current market price gives a devidend yield of almost 6%. Currently the banks are paying interest of almost 6%. So at current levels till the time ITC share is not reevaluated again your investment in it is giving you almost the same return what your FD in any Bank would have fetched.

 So my suggestion is till the time it is trading at current levels keep on accumulating ITC as much as you can. As this will be a great wealth creator in coming years.

North Goa | Places to Visit in North Goa

North Goa | Places to Visit in North Goa

Bitcoin & XRP: How this Indian government employee made over $150K from $7000 investment

The human interest stories related to cryptocurrencies and their meteoric rise have faded over time. This is a story of “stupidity”, love and money, a story that has been hidden for many months, fearing the government’s wrath, especially after India’s stance against cryptocurrencies.

During early February, AMBCrypto had written an article trying to investigate the possible reasons for the cryptocurrency crash and although that article covered many quotes, one story of Mr. Subash Gaikwad [Name changed at the request of the interviewee] from Borivali, Mumbai has been hidden until now because of his fear of losing all his money because of government scrutiny.

Mr. Subash, works as a Loco Pilot for the Indian Railways in Mumbai. The 37-year-old father of two stays in Borivali, Mumbai with his wife, two children, elder brother & his wife and Subash’s mother who has been bedridden for the past 3 years. The entire household earns about $1500 a month with which they pay off two loans, feed the house, pay for their children’s tuition and save enough money to watch two Bollywood movies in a month.

In February 2017, Subash, to get out of this financial difficulties started exploring investment and money-making options. He heard about Bitcoin from his 24-year-old relative who was pursuing his engineering degree. He told him about how Bitcoin was on the precipice of taking a huge jump and how he should get in on this “Bitcoin Fad” right now.

Subash did not believe him, but just to make his young relative happy, he asked him if there was a “cheaper cryptocurrency than Bitcoin”. Not understanding the technology or how it functions, he invested in XRP through BTCXIndia, a website which now defunct, provided the Indian retail market an XRP/INR pair for investments.

His initial skeptical investment of ~$150 at a price of $0.033/XRP fetched him almost thrice his initial investment by May 7th of 2017. His belief in cryptocurrencies grew stronger and went on to invest Rs. 500,000 (~$7000) in various cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, Bitcoin and XRP. Subash in a shaky voice tells us,

[paraphrased from Hindi]

“This was the most difficult decision I made in my life. There are some moments in your life where your gut tells you to do certain things. I just had a feeling about Bitcoin and Ripple in my bones. I knew that it was going to be big. I know this was stupid, you can quote this as, ‘Subash being stupid’ in your article, but I knew. I sold my wife’s wedding jewelry, secretly sold my sister-in-law’s jewelry and took out all the money from our life savings to invest in this. If I could sell something else, I would have”

Subash’s “stupid” and rather irrational decision fetched him a more than 18x return by the time he cashed out in December 2017 and January’ 18. The rapid rise in XRP prices in the early part of January this year combined with Bitcoin’s monumental growth in December last year earned him Rs. 1,07,80,000 (~$150,000). He says, “I maybe should have cashed out everything. Although 80% of my portfolio is out, there is still that 20% investment which is still currently there. I am not at a loss, I’m just greedy now, so will hold on”

When asked about his motivation to make this “stupid” decision to sell everything his wife and family had, he says,

“We were pushed to the limit, I had two loans to repay, my wife couldn’t work anymore because of a critical medical condition that she was suffering from for a long time. My mother was bed-ridden and the only way to cover the expenses was to stop my kids from studying and push them on the road to do menial jobs which can bring us extra income. The beginning of 2017 was hard and there was no other way to go. This decision was made so I could save my children’s future. There are some actions that define your future, I consider this as that defining action. Now my children will never go hungry and my wife won’t suffer because of the lack of treatement.”

Being part of the Indian government machinery, he says, the biggest hurdle for cryptocurrencies is currently governments and policymakers. He believes there that needs to be a regulation in the market but not just completely ban what you don’t understand. He says revealing his name would throw light on his identity, making life difficult for him.

After Arun Jaitley made market impacting statements in February, Subash was able to speak to a highly influential person from the RBI and says,

“I do not understand this technology and believe me when I say this, the people who are currently banning banks from entertaining crypto exchanges do not understand even the basics of crypto. If I rate myself 1 on a scale of 1 to 10, these guys should be given a -2 or a -3. For them, anything that they don’t understand is a Ponzi scheme”

A story almost similar to the “Slumdog Millionaire” movie, Subash says his understanding of blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies is absolutely zero. He doesn’t understand what they mean or what they do for the real world. He treats them like trading assets and now invests his time in understanding trading dynamics, indicators and exchange volumes.

He runs a small Facebook crypto community group dedicated to people who do not understand this technology. He also has multiple WhatsApp groups aimed to train and teach cryptocurrency trading. His favorite indicator is the Bollinger Band and aims to convert his $150K to a Million dollars by the end of 2019.

Where do our jobseekers go?

An area where the state government looks very keen to show results is providing employment. The government these days has turned its focus on entrepreneurship and promoting startups in an effort to create jobs. Yet the pace of new job openings are slow looking at the limited number of vacancies coming up compared to the large number entering the job stream.

On May 11, a job fair was held in Socorro, Porvorim, the first of a series of job fairs for 2018, organised by the government to bring together employers and job seekers. The event aimed at speeding up the selection process and providing a quick solution to the unemployment problem.

The job fair drew aspirants in large numbers but it reflected the dilemma facing the Goan unemployed. Jobs were available but not appealing. Around 4,000 youth registered at the job fair for 1500 vacancies from 56 companies.

The companies were from six different sectors such as hospitality, retail, automobile, IT, pharmaceutical, real estate, etc., and the vacancies were for both blue-collar and white-collar jobs.  On the other hand, the job seekers were youngsters and experienced holding commerce, engineering degrees, post-graduate diplomas from technical, management and other professional courses. They came from all over the state, from Navelim, Curchorem, Ponda, Margao  and other localities.

For Prateek Asnoldkar, 32 years, Bicholim, the job fair was among the many he attended over the years. A civil draftsman, Asnoldkar says that, he worked with couple of architect, construction, interior designer firms all of which were unsatisfactory in one or the other way. “Sometimes the problem was of mean boss and other times it was the pay,” he says. According to Asnoldkar, most local firms pay measly salaries and it is the major reason for his being in the job market and constantly changing office.

Meleny D’Souza, 25 years, says it is her first job fair as she is already working. D’Souza with five years of experience as front office executive in a hotel claims to earn about Rs 18,000 per month. She said that, she registered at the event for better prospects and because she wanted to change industry. “I am looking for a non-hotel job and want to work in a service industry that offers me a better package,” she says. D’Souza adds that, she is submitted her CV to several companies and is yet to get a response.

Other than experienced candidates like Asnoldkar and D’Souza, a major chunk of the applicants were pass-outs from the engineering colleges or would be graduates waiting for results.

The regional employment exchange has organised five job fairs over one-and-half years wherein more than 11,000 job seekers registered. Around 200 employers participated with 4,000 vacancies. Of them only 500 candidates were given employment letters. It is a poor track record of employment and indicates a success rate of only 12.5 per cent. It points to a gross disparity between availability and what is on offer from employers.

According to industry, 80 per cent of the local candidates who accept job offers at the fairs fail to show up at the work place because of which the vacancies are filled by outsiders. “They do not want private industry jobs and are only seeking government jobs, said an unit owner. He added that the other problem is of lack of skills. Local youth are not suited for the openings on hand which is why industrial estates in the state are populated by people from Karwar or Sindhudurg.

However according to the youth,  salary is a major stumbling block in private jobs. “Local firms have no benefits to speak of. They offer minimum pay with the least of facilities for employees. There is not enough leave or overtime and travel allowance, ” said Asoldkar.  He said it is the major reason for the large number of working Goans at all job fairs.

Meanwhile, at the Porvorim job fair, the average scale of pay was distressing. Fresh engineering graduates were offered annual salary package ranging between Rs 1.2 lakh and Rs 1.80 lakh per annum. It translates into a monthly salary between Rs 10,000 and Rs 15,000 and is not enough to cover the cost of education or the effort taken in studying. Similarly, BCom and BSc graduates with no experience were offered low salaries.

Official data (see table) shows that Goan industrial sector’s record in providing jobs is poor. Industry created as less as 251 jobs in 2017, which was about 18 per cent of the jobs provided by the employment exchange. Further the trend of industry employing from the exchange is erratic and shows deceleration over the years.

To be sure, the employment exchange is not the only source of candidates for industry. Yet the large number of registrations in every job fair reveals that, industry overall is not recruiting enough locals. And meager employment by local units is largely because of low salaries on offer. It is the reason why, the local pharmaceutical industry takes bulk of its staff from other states and also the cause of engineering graduates migrating in large numbers to metro cities.

The local job scene is entered into a no-win situation where youth do not take up jobs on offer because of low salaries and become unemployable due to lack of training, expertise, etc.

On the Sandip Bhandare, president, Goa Chamber of Commerce, terms it the “expectation gap” between the job seeker and the employer. “When an employee demands for a particular salary he or she is looking at the cost of living and aspiration, while industry is looking at pay from performance point of view.  The difference in outlook is the expectation gap that needs to be addressed from both the sides,” says Bhandare.

Goa’s job scene continues to be disturbing. The number of unemployed at the live register is increasing and the government is the primary provider of jobs. The bulk of the unemployed registered in the exchange are 12th standard pass, followed by graduates and post graduates.

There are incentive schemes to encourage industry to employ locals. Also industrial policies such as the IT Startup Policy and the Investment Policy are also geared towards promoting jobs to local youth. The influx of outsiders from other states in industrial jobs is become a touchy issue.

Exploration as of now shows the Kremlin is grinding away once more. Since the last presidential political race, Facebook and Twitter have prohibited democratic related deception and pledged to recognize and close down inauthentic systems of records run by household or remote miscreants. Prior to the current year's political decision, Twitter restricted political advertisements through and through, a choice an organization representative told the AP it remains behind. Also, Facebook, alongside Google, started unveiling effort advertisement spending while at the same time forbidding non-Americans from getting US political promotions. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Facebook didn't remark for this story. Be that as it may, calls to flatten Big Tech's swelling power have just become stronger from the two Democrats and Republicans, despite the fact that the two gatherings are focusing on various organizations for various motivations to mobilize supporters. Those legislative issues will no uncertainty be on full showcase Wednesday, when four major tech CEOs, Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg, Amazon's Jeff Bezos, Google's Sundar Pichai, and Apple's Tim Cook, vouch for a House Judiciary Committee board as a feature of a congressional examination concerning the tech business' strength. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Biden has concentrated on Facebook, with a #MoveFastFixIt battle that advises Facebook for not doing what's needed to shield clients from remote intruding or being hoodwinked by misrepresentations, especially those spread by Trump about mail-in casting a ballot. His battle simply a month ago spent about $10,000 (generally Rs. 7,46,800) to run advertisements chastening the organization on its own foundation. "We could mislead you, yet we won't," says one of Biden's promotions. "Hundreds of thousands of Facebook advertisements like this one were burnt once by Donald Trump and his Republican allies, causing volatile rage over how much you vote to prove real." (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); In spite of reprimanding Facebook, Biden's crusade said it's despite everything buying a large number of dollars in Facebook advertisements since it's one of only a handful barely any approaches to counter Trump's bogus posts — since Facebook won't certainty check him. The promotions are additionally a modest and powerful route for the crusades to energize supporters who are discontent with the stages, said Kathleen Searles, a Louisiana State University political interchanges teacher. 'Searles said "Then they are told to place names on the mailing list or $20 (usually Rs. 1500)'. "What better approach to get individuals irate than a nondescript stage?" (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); While Biden has concentrated on Facebook, Trump has focused on Twitter, and once in awhile Snapchat, with his battle running on the web promotions that blame the two organizations for "meddling" in the political race. Twitter turned into a Trump battle focus after the organization revealed its first actuality check of his mistaken tweet about democratic in late May. By there, Twitter had attributed comparable names to the other five Trump tweets, including two that rendered the mail-in vote "deceptive" and estimated that, if the ballot is not counted, "letter drops would be plundered." (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Trump reacted by marking a to a great extent emblematic official request testing Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, which gives insurances from claims to Internet organizations that have filled in as a bedrock for liberated discourse on the web. "It's outrageous that Silicon Valley, the bastion of assorted variety and radicalism, is frightened of scholarly decent variety and moderate voices," Trump agent national press secretary Ken Farnaso said in an announcement. Republican pioneers have since participated in railing against Twitter. This month, Rep. Jim Jordan, a troublemaker traditionalist from Ohio, requested Twitter hand over a full bookkeeping, including messages, of how it chose to truth check the president. Saying "huge tech is crazy," Republican Sen. Ted Cruz joined many preservationist news sources, Trump staff members and government officials who pursued a two-day crusade a month ago asking their Twitter devotees to jettison the stage and join Parler, a web-based social networking application that doesn't direct its substance as intently. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Facebook could be next for a go head to head with the president and his partners since the organization has promised to name any posts — Trump's incorporated — that abuse its standards against casting a ballot falsehood or loathe discourse. Facebook still can't seem to make such a move, however. "The regulation of life on the Internet would be a big problem for cruises, "said Brooking. "Furthermore, there will be motivating force from various people pursuing a position in 2020 to stretch the limits, even more, to attempt to welcome an ever-increasing number of internet-based life control since they consider it to be a powerful political trick."
