Unbelievable that a top brand like Samsung is still struggling with this green line issue, especially with its top Galaxy S Series devices. Was affected by this a couple of years ago with my S21 FE.

With 30%+ income tax, as a salaried employee in the private sector, you barely get anything as a safety net post retirement in India. All through one's employment, the only option is to save aggressively to make ends meet after retirement.

A Class 12 student — one of the 17 lakh affected — took it upon himself to investigate, document, and publish findings that every major newsroom should have been chasing.

When institutions fail students and media fails citizens, it is deeply telling that accountability comes from a teenager with a blog.

Jürgen Klinsmann: “Había 70.000 personas, nosotros estábamos calentando seriamente. Mientras sonaba ‘Live Is Life’, Maradona empezó a hacer malabares con el balón. Dejamos de calentar, porque no había nada más que pudiéramos hacer aparte de mirarlo.” MAGIA!

Your ESOP letter says one number. Your bank account will disagree.

Here's the bit nobody explains at the townhall: when you exercise, the gap between FMV and strike price is taxed as salary. Not when you sell. When you exercise. In cash. At your slab rate.

At ₹2 crore total income, that's roughly 39%. On a ₹2.1 crore perquisite, about ₹82 lakh leaves before you've sold a single share.

Add ₹10 lakh in strike price to exercise, and you're out ₹92 lakh while the stock is still in lock-in.

When you finally sell — assuming the price held — capital gains are calculated against FMV at exercise, not your strike. Often a small loss. Useful for set-off, not much else.

Net new wealth on a ₹1.9 crore ESOP? Closer to ₹98 lakh.

If you're sitting on ESOPs and a liquidity event is coming, read this first: https://t.co/X1eL8Hir4M

Attack exposes Strait risks

MSV Haji Ali, an India-flagged cargo vessel capsized off Oman after an alleged attack reportedly caused a fire on board. #MarineTraffic data showed the vessel out of range after her last recorded update, with a speed of about 8.8 knots and a 306 degree course. The 57 metre livestock carrier was travelling from Berbera in Somaliland to Sharjah with about 4,000 sheep and goats. According to reports, all 14 Indian crew members were rescued by Oman’s Coast Guard.
