After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today.
I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.
It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC.
May God bless America.
Dear @IncomeTaxIndia@FinMinIndia@nsitharaman - careless reminders triggered by AI based automated systems will give people anxiety. 1) in days of digital fraud frequent bombardment is already bad! 2) you are sending advance tax and GST reminders to those who are tax exempt! Further scare 3) check below- emails yesterday - identical email received by individuals who are not businessmen nor have GST numbers!! This can cause a few heart attacks since the numbers are in crores! @TVMohandasPai
KIND ATTENTION TAXPAYERS!
Clarification has been issued regarding certain email communications sent under the Advance Tax e-Campaign for AY 2026–27 (FY 2025–26)

THE ONE-LINE TAKEAWAY.
Section 16(3) is a SCALPEL — not a sledgehammer.
It cuts only the tax component that was BOTH depreciated AND claimed as ITC.
If you never claimed the ITC → Section 16(3) has nothing to cut.

The issue? Whether banks can claim depreciation on lapsed GST Input Tax Credit.
The answer? Yes. And the reasoning is airtight.
Read this before your next GST audit. 👇
