India collected ₹54,000 crore in road tolls in FY2024
also collected ₹3.6 lakh crore in fuel taxes
also collected ₹1.7 lakh crore in GST on vehicles
Total road-related taxes : ~₹5 lakh crore/year
Total NHAI road budget : ₹1.7 lakh crore
You paid for the road 3 times over.
Then paid again at the toll booth.
where did the other ₹3.3 lakh crore go?
"India agreed to stop buying oil from Iran. We agreed to stop buying oil from Russia despite so much criticism from our opposition. India agreed to a 50% tariff without saying too much. So where exactly is India not doing enough to work with America?" questions Ram Madhav
@kumarvaibhav29@Lenskart_com Don't! These guys are woke and their investors will bury them if they move away from ideological standpoint. He is admitting his bias only because he is caught.
I have listened to your concerns and I understand your sentiment around this. I want to add more context to my earlier post.
The document currently circulating is an outdated internal training document. It is not an HR policy.
That said, it contained an incorrect line about bindi/tilak that should never have been written and does not reflect our values or actual practice. When we discovered this on February 17, well before this became a public conversation, we immediately removed it.
But I should have caught this earlier. As Founder and CEO, the responsibility for such lapses is mine. I have asked my team to bring all such materials under stricter review, and I will personally ensure this is addressed going forward. We are also looking into how this found its way into our training content.
Let me be absolutely clear. Lenskart does not and will never restrict any form of respectful religious expression. This includes bindi, tilak, or any such symbols of faith. Our team members have always been, and will always be, free to express their beliefs with pride.
I also want to thank everyone who raised this. Your voice helps us improve and stay true to what we stand for.
My wife has been a home maker for last 15 years.
She has some basic investments in FDs and Bonds and that is all about it.
Every year, she files ITR-1 and hardly comes within the taxable bracket.
Money is the least in her mind. She is happy with her spiritual life.
Suddenly, @IncomeTaxIndia has sent this notice to her saying she has a GST turnover transaction of Rs. 3.74 Crores 😝
In her childhood, she wanted to do a business.
Today, the IT department has made her childhood dream come true.
Too clever by half or is this just plain ignorance? Ever heard of a process called land acquisition? Two different governance and institutional models will produce different results.
Your petrol bill isn’t driven by oil markets.
It’s driven by government revenue design.
Big oil drum costs $55.
That drum makes 159 bottles of petrol.
One bottle costs ₹31.
Truck, factory, shop owner, everyone together takes ₹9.
So petrol actually costs ₹40.
But shop says:
“Give me ₹100.”
Extra ₹60 is tax.
So petrol is not costly.
Petrol tax is.
That’s it.
Are you buying petrol… or paying tax in disguise?

@ICICIBank_Care bolsters my conviction that 'Relationship Manager' is a complete farce. The services quickly slide from bad to worse!!!
You restrict my own a/c bcoz I made the mistake of opening my sons' accounts with you guys!
#NeverAgain#pathetic
@ICICIBank_Care This 'relationship manager' concept is a complete farce! Every time I've called, I get an automated response - you will get a call back. Even your branches have #patheticservice. Most people struggle to answer, depend on others. What a #waste of time!
You leave office early to beat traffic, but Shela always surprises you! Took me 25 mins to cover 14 km, now stuck since 20 mins just to cover 1 km. Roads dug up indiscriminatly by AUDA, no traffic mgmt measures, works going on for over 3 years. Pathetic conditions @CMOGuj
And the city is hosting CWG; they can't complete roadworks for over 3 years, have no ability for traffic management, no planning for diversions etc, and leave citizens to suffer endlessly @AmitShah@AmitShahOffice
