1.The GST Council took a decision to discontinue the compensation cess effective from September 22, 2025 on all items except tobacco and related products. The cess levy on tobacco and related products was also removed from February 1, 2026. Accordingly, from the above period, there is No cess collection.

https://t.co/w0rw8in9TA view of the above, from the month of November 2025 (first tax period post GST rate rationalisation), GST revenue figures published in the public domain transparently showed compensation cess separately in a table below and the year-on-year growth was computed on the tax base consisting of CGST, SGST and IGST for the corresponding periods. A foot note was also carried as an ample disclosure.

3.A growth rate is meaningful only when it is computed on a comparable basis, that is, on the same set of levies on both sides of the comparison. Otherwise, it is like comparing apples and oranges.

4.The purpose of a growth figure is to show how the tax base has moved. The GST revenue figures published month on month reflect the correct picture of GST revenue performance, with full disclosure. Where a levy has ceased to exist in law, retaining it in the base measures something else altogether. It is neither arithmetically right nor makes any logical sense.

5.Therefore, any attempt to cherry-pick figures from two different tax bases is thoroughly misleading and mischievous. A fair analysis must compare like with like, instead of misleading our citizens by comparing two fundamentally different datasets.

Lmao holy shit

7.8% growth.

Strong numbers.

Even stronger confidence.

Rome handed out free grain to 40,000 citizens in 73 BC. By 46 BC, Julius Caesar found 320,000 people lining up for their monthly ration. That eight-fold expansion happened in under three decades, and it shows you how welfare states actually grow.

No Roman senator stood up and announced a plan to addict a third of the city to government bread. It happened incrementally, through political competition. Each magistrate who wanted votes expanded eligibility. Each expansion normalized the next one. The citizen who once considered the dole shameful eventually expected it, then demanded it, then organized politically to protect it.

This is the core mechanism free market thinkers have identified across every era: once you create a transfer program, you create a constituency for that program. Recipients vote. Administrators build careers. Grain merchants who supply the state develop a stake in keeping the contracts flowing. The political economy locks in.

Caesar, to his credit, actually cut the rolls back to 150,000 through verification audits. It was one of his more economically coherent moves, though the Senate still murdered him. His successors quietly let the numbers climb again.

What did the dole require? Massive grain imports from Sicily, Sardinia, and Egypt, organized through state logistics at state expense, funded by taxation and conquest. When the conquest revenue dried up, the obligation remained. Rome had written a check against future military success, and future military success eventually failed to arrive.

The lesson is not complicated. Distribute a benefit and you distribute dependency. Distribute dependency and you distribute political power to whoever controls the distribution. The grain dole didn't weaken Rome overnight, but it made every subsequent reform politically impossible.

Modi govt destroyed the ISI-backed terror group Shahzad Bhatti Network ahead of Independence Day and thwarted its plans for subversive attacks by arresting more than 200 operatives.

Indian security forces ripped apart the network by launching coordinated operations across different locations in 14 states upholding a brilliant example of India's zero-tolerance towards terrorism.

Substantial recoveries, including IEDs, grenades bearing Pakistan Ordnance Factory markings, pistols, live cartridges, and CCTV cameras used for espionage, were made from the ISI-funded group. The network was involved in several terrorist activities.

Every time I watch this, I go back to that night and how pleasantly spooked I was. What an innings and of course with Tony Greig in commentary, it made it even more special. Summer holidays, Star Sports and Sachin. You didn’t need anything else to be happy in life back then

Quando alguém diz “trinta anos atrás” eu penso em 1970 e não em 1996 😭😭😭

Word for caution for the govt.

It’s easy to outwit a bunch of amateurs, who don’t even know how to maintain the right optics. But the ruling party should know we are sitting on a heap of gunpowder. How easy it was to organise a large protest, using the algorithm of Instagram, that threatened the govt.

Next time, there will be a smarter bunch utilising the same plumbing to come at you.

1) Keep listening to core issues on ground. Address it quickly.

2) Keep your safety switches in place.

3) Intelligence & Police forces should have a SoP to handle such viral protests fuelled by social media.

On this auspicious day of Ashada Ekadashi, I am very happy to announce the launch of my humble attempt to make history interesting.

https://t.co/SGfD2ebBpO

The idea is actually very very simple

You go to the site, select a year, and It will show you who ruled which part of India at that point in time.

Request urgent intervention. Sister has been trying to get her Aadhaar address updated for the last 3 weeks, both online and offline, but request has still not been processed despite submitting all required documents, including the property ownership proof.

@UIDAI @Aadhaar_Care
This delay has stalled her passport renewal, which is now adversely impacting an important business trip. pl look into this on priority & help resolve the issue at the earliest. This has become extremely frustrating despite following the prescribed process
