What happens when a family chooses belief over boundaries?
In the quiet lanes of Barmer, Rajasthan, where traditions often speak louder than dreams, Deepu Kanwar was building a future no one could see — studying silently behind her ghoonghat, holding onto a vision much bigger than her circumstances.
Married at a young age, and later embracing motherhood, her responsibilities only grew. But so did her determination.
What truly set her journey apart wasn’t just her resilience — it was the support she received at home.
While many women are expected to pause their ambitions after marriage, Deepu’s father-in-law became her strongest pillar. Whenever she stepped in to help with household chores, he would gently remind her, “Your work is to study.”
Her journey wasn’t without setbacks.
In 2022, she cleared both prelims and mains but fell short in the interview.
In 2023, she tried again, only to stumble at the mains stage.
But she didn’t stop.
With every failure, her resolve only grew stronger.
And finally, her persistence turned into success — she cleared the Gujarat State Judicial Service Examination, securing an All India Rank of 79 and stepping into the courtroom as a civil judge.
This isn’t just Deepu’s story.
It’s a reminder that when families choose to uplift instead of restrict, they don’t just support dreams — they create history.
Because sometimes, all it takes is one person who says, “Go ahead, I believe in you.”

I am a CA. Have been for 30+ years.
I have seen CAs become movie directors
I have seen CAs become content creators
I have seen CAs become fashion designers
I have seen CAs become video editors
I myself went from CA to running a chocolate brand across 34 countries.
Someone who can study 12 hours a day
for 12 months straight can do literally anything.
The CA degree is not your ceiling.
It is proof that you have no ceiling.

DURANDHAR2 IS OUTSTANDING!🏆ADITYA DHAR IS A ROCKSTAR! ❤️🥹Sometimes, words fall short.
You walk out of a film… and there’s a silence within you that says everything, yet explains nothing. That’s what watching #Dhurandar felt like. It is not just a film. It is an experience. An emotion. A journey that quietly enters your heart and then refuses to leave. There are moments in Dhurandar that don’t just play on screen—they stay with you, long after the lights come on.
I have tried to capture what I felt in the video I am sharing along with this post… but honestly, I could have gone on and on. Because some stories are not meant to be described! They are meant to be felt. Dhurandar is one such story.
Congratulations to the entire team for creating something so powerful, so magical, so moving, and so deeply human. Watch it. Experience it. And then sit with it. And #SanjayDutt is brilliant! EVERY ‘INDIAN’ WILL BE PROUD OF THIS FILM. JAI Hind!❤️🇮🇳🇮🇳❤️ @AdityaDharFilms@jiostudios@RanveerOfficial@bolbedibol #Indian #Proud
I have been laid off today from the @washingtonpost, along with most of the International staff and so many other wonderful colleagues. I’m heartbroken for our newsroom and especially for the peerless journalists who served the Post internationally — editors and correspondents who have been my friends and collaborators for almost 12 years. It’s been an honor to work with them.
I launched the WorldView column in January 2017 to help readers better understand the world and America’s place in it and I’m grateful for the half a million loyal subscribers who tuned into the column several times a week over the years.
Gold is now at ₹1.85L. Imagine the pain that must be happening with the SGB that the government issued. The government didn’t back SGBs with real gold, and now the interest rate on that SGB debt which govt will have to pay, must be at least 60-70%. I’ve never seen a government that messes up basic finance like this, or maybe they just don’t care what happens to the economy and simply do anything they want, which eventually wastes public money endlessly.
New day.
New drama by @IncomeTaxIndia
Now, if an employee hasn't reported any deduction claims to employer but has claimed those in ITR, does that mean he is a tax evader ?
Assessees claiming genuine deductions are receiving this email treating them as tax evaders and creating panic!
Also, when will @IncomeTaxIndia serve Notice on the MLA who lit up Rs. 70 lakhs worth firecrackers on a wedding ? Probably never!!
🚨 ITR REFUND ALERT – READ THIS BEFORE 31 DEC 🚨
Thousands of taxpayers are suddenly receiving this message 👇
👉 “Your ITR refund is on hold due to risk management discrepancies. File revised return within a week.”
💡 Irony?
⏳ Income Tax Dept took 4+ months to identify the issue
⏰ And now gives taxpayers barely a few days to fix it
❓ Why no detailed email received?
Because most of these are system-generated risk flags.
Sometimes:
• Email goes to old registered ID
• Lands in spam
• Or only SMS/portal alert is triggered
👉 Always check the ITR portal → e-Proceedings / Worklist
📌 What does “ITR processing on hold” mean?
It does NOT mean notice or scrutiny ❌
It means:
🔹 Refund claim looks unusual compared to data available with department
🔹 Return is paused before issuing refund
🔹 Taxpayer is given a chance to self-correct
⚠️ Common reasons refunds get flagged :
🔹 TDS/TCS mismatch
TDS claimed in ITR is higher than what appears in Form 26AS (employer/bank hasn’t deposited or corrected data yet)
🔹 AIS vs ITR income mismatch
Interest, dividends, salary or other income appears in AIS, but not fully reported in ITR
🔹 High refund compared to past years
Sudden jump in refund amount triggers risk checks, especially if income pattern is similar
🔹 Deductions claimed without backing data
Large HRA, 80C, 80D, home loan interest, or losses claimed which don’t match available reporting
🔹 Employer correction pending
Employer revised TDS return filed late → ITR processed earlier → mismatch created
🔹 Multiple revised returns
Frequent revisions raise system flags under “risk management”
🔹 Wrong head of income
Interest shown as “other income” vs “business”, capital gains wrongly classified, etc.
✅ What should taxpayers do NOW?
1️⃣ Log in to income-tax portal
2️⃣ Compare ITR vs AIS + 26AS
3️⃣ If mistake found → File revised return before 31-12-2025
4️⃣ If correct → wait, refund usually released after verification
⚠️ After 01-01-2026, updated return = extra tax + penalty
Clients started forwarding this message since morning 📩

Income Tax is Literally Harassing the Genuine Taxpayer
Now they started sending notices to the Genuine Taxpayer who has claimed deduction in ITR Which is not reflected in Form 16.
This year they have demanded additional diclosure for Claiming Deduction Like loan ac no, policy no, reciept no Etc.,
Why they are not cross verifying the claim with data given by Taxpayer. Why they are Asking TaxPayer to Verify the Deductions ??
You have strong AI, Put all data in AI and cross verify and then send notices to Taxpayer who has claimed wrong deduction with exact description and Amount.
This type of general Intimation Create Panic in Genuine Taxpayer.
Hope they learn and Stop This Kind of Harassment.
