सेवा में,
Tata Motors Insurance Broking and Advisory Services Ltd. एवं The Oriental Insurance Co. Ltd.

विषय: “Tata Motors ने मुझे मार दिया” – 5 महीने से मेरी गाड़ी नहीं मिली, Insurance Claim में ₹1.50 लाख की अतिरिक्त मांग

महोदय/महोदया,

“Tata Motors ने मुझे मार दिया” — आज 5 महीने से अपनी गाड़ी के लिए परेशान होत��-होते मैं मानसिक और आर्थिक रूप से पूरी तरह थक चुका हूँ।

मेरी Tata Altroz XZ 1.5 (RJ 45 CX 6511) का Accident 02 अप्रैल 2026 को हुआ था और मैंने उसी दिन अधिकृत Tata Workshop में गाड़ी जमा कर दी थी। आज लगभग 5 महीने हो चुके हैं। पिछले लगभग 90 दिनों से लगातार Follow-up करने और शोरूम/Workshop के कई चक्कर लगाने के बावजूद मुझे न तो मेरी गाड़ी दी जा रही है और न ही स्पष्ट बताया जा रहा है कि गाड़ी क्यों रुकी हुई है।

मैंने Tata Motors पर भरोसा करके गाड़ी खरीदी और Insurance भी Tata Motors के माध्यम से लिया। Policy लेते समय मैंने साफ कहा था कि मुझे सबसे अच्छा और Comprehensive Insurance Cover तथा Nil Depreciation चाहिए। लेकिन आज लगभग ₹4.30 ला�� के Repair Bill में करीब ₹1.50 लाख अपनी जेब से देने के लिए कहा जा रहा है।

अब मुझे बताया जा रहा है कि Nil Depreciation केवल 2 Claims तक है, जबकि Policy लेते समय Tata Motors के संबंधित कर्मचारी ने यह महत्वपूर्ण शर्त मुझे स्पष्ट रूप से नहीं बताई। मेरे पास WhatsApp Chats, Quotation, Policy Documents और पूरी Communication History सुरक्षित है।

मैं केवल अपना उचित Insurance Benefit और अपनी गाड़ी समय पर वापस चाहता हूँ। 5 महीने तक गाड़ी रोकना और ऊपर से इतनी बड़ी राशि की मांग करना मेरे लिए अत्यंत गंभीर financial और mental harassment है।

कृपया तत्काल:

- ₹1.50 लाख की पूरी Deduction/Claim Calculation और Policy Clause दें।
- Surveyor Report एवं Claim Assessment उपलब्ध कराएं।
- 2-Claim Nil Depreciation की जानकारी Policy खरीदते समय दिए जाने का documentary proof दें।
- मेरी गाड़ी की वर्तमान स्थिति और Final Delivery Date लिखित में बताएं।
- 5 महीने की देरी का स्पष्ट कारण बताएं।
- मेरे financial loss, inconvenience और mental harassment का उचित समाधान/compensation दें।

मैं अब केवल मौखिक आश्वासन स्वीकार नहीं करूंगा। यदि मुझे उचित समाधान नहीं दिया जाता है, तो मैं उपलब्ध सभी दस्त��वेज और communication के साथ मामले को IRDAI Bima Bharosa, National Consumer Helpline एवं Consumer Commission के समक्ष प्रस्तुत करूंगा।

कृपया इसे मेरी Final Formal Complaint मानते हुए Complaint/Reference Number उपलब्ध कराएं।

धन्यवाद।

@HDFCLIFE why my policy documents are sent to relationship manager rather than receiving on my communication address? Why I am required to compulsory meet the manager before they can give me my policy document?? #hdfclifeindia

Today I’m still matching 26AS.

@Srinew2013 Valid point.
A qualification in 3CA/3CB can hold the report if 26AS or GSTR-3B is still open. I’ll still try to close that recon before signing. Cleaner file, fewer questions later.

You should also be urging the Hon'ble FM to delete clauses of Form No.3CD which require a load of irrelevant and non actionable data eg Clauses 26A(b), 26B(a), 44, 31(ba), 31(bc), 27(a), 32, 31(d) and 31(e). Also clauses 22(iii), 31(a), 31(b), 31(bb) and 31(bc) needs to be restructured along the lines of corresponding clauses of Form No.26.

This will lighten the burden of tax auditors as well as reduce the load on the portal.

[CA Rajendra Sharma @carajendra89]

Ground reality:
Tax Audit work is still pending for many professionals.

Due date must be extended immediately till 31.10.2026.

RECEIVING 100 OF MESSAGES ON DAILY BASIS AS TO ANY NEWS OF TAX AUDIT EXTENSION.

MY HONEST GUT FEELING.

TAX AUDIT DUE DATE WILL BE 100% EXTENDED.

ONLY 20-30% TAX AUDIT WORK HAS BEEN COMPLETED IN ALL CHARTERED ACCOUNTANT OFFICES.

I KNOW IT. YOU KNOW IT. CA ASSOCIATIONS IN THIS COUNTRY KNOW IT AND WE HAVE NOW SEEN SO MANY REPRESENTATIONS. ICAI KNOWS IT. OF COURSE, THE GOVERNMENT KNOWS IT.

WE ARE JUST MADE TO FEEL BEGGARS DUE TO INEFFECTIVE REPRESENTATIONS AND HOLLOW VOICES FROM THE VERY TOP.

Assessees are receiving bulk demand notices without updated payment records or pending appeal effects being applied. This causes avoidable distress, unwarranted follow-ups, and unnecessary administrative burdens.

It is humbly requested that the CBDT issue clear directions to field officers and the CPC to grant pending appeal effects and update ledger data before initiating automated bulk demand notices. @IncomeTaxIndia @FinMinIndia @nsitharamanoffc @PMOIndia

GST registration just got faster for small taxpayers.

If your monthly output tax liability on B2B supplies is within a certain limit, there’s now a simplified route to get GST registration electronically.

But there’s more to it than just the ₹2.5 lakh figure.

Let’s simplify 👇

[CA. Dhairya Keshri @Dhairya__tweets]

Client: ₹62.24 LAKH?

Me: Yes. An assessee had credit card payments of over ₹62 lakh, and the Income Tax Department treated the expenditure as unexplained.

Client: But ₹62 lakh on a credit card? What exactly happened?

Me: The interesting part is that the assessee said, “The credit card was mine, but someone else was using it.”

Client: Wait. Someone else was using his credit card?

Me: Yes. He explained that his relative was using the card for transactions like mobile recharges, railway tickets etc., and that the relative was also making the payments from his own bank account.

Client: Then why did the department add ₹62.24 lakh to his income?

Me: Because the card was in his name. The AO treated those credit card payments as unexplained expenditure under section 69C and also invoked section 115BBE. The addition was ₹62,24,141.

Client: That's scary. So just because the card is in my name, the department can question the entire spending?

Me: They can certainly ask you to explain it. And that's why casually handing over your credit card to someone else can become a serious tax-evidence problem.

Client: So what did the ITAT say?

Me: The Tribunal noted that the assessee had tried to establish that the card payments were actually made by another person, while the Revenue had not properly rebutted that explanation.

Client: So he won?

Me: Partly. The ITAT took a factual, lump-sum approach and restricted the addition to 6% of the total bank credits and card payments, while specifically stating that this should not be treated as a precedent.

Client: And what happened to the 115BBE tax?

Me: This is perhaps the biggest takeaway. The Tribunal held that the bank credits and card payments were part of the assessee's business turnover. Therefore, section 115BBE was not applicable, and the addition was to be taxed under the normal provisions.

Client: So the lesson is not “6% tax on credit card payments”?

Me: Absolutely not.

The lesson is: if a ₹62 lakh transaction trail is sitting on a credit card in your name, “my relative used it” needs evidence, not just an explanation.
For the complete case law, kindly DM

If due date of filling tax audits is to be extended then extension should come timely. There's no logic of providing extension at the last moment.

When no one is giving anything to Young CA (in terms of money, client or support) they are bound to accept such assignments. I may be trolled for this comment but what option does young CA have?

Practice chalana aasaan nahin hai. They have so many expenses like Office Rent, Salaries, Home expenses etc

First 2-3 years for a young CA, it's all about survival.

I have shared my version and experience. I welcome all troll and bad comments on this but Seniors should first start sharing work with youngsters on equitable basis not on throw away prices.

During my election campaign, I travelled to tier-2 and tier-3 towns (kasbe) and saw all together diffferent reality than what we see in metros. And Young CA are vulunerable, becuase no support from anyone. They can't do audit, they can't do GMCS, they probably check copies. Kahan Jayein woh saare??

Troll me nut will it change reality, few or many are facing?
