@rishibagree This is not a practical, consider my scenario
P V - 98 lacs - 2015
S V - 1 CR 42 lacs - 2024

LTCG with indexation = 2 lacs
20% of 2 lacs = 40k

142 - 98 = 44 lacs
12.5% of 44 lacs = 5.5 lacs

Total loss of 5 lacs. Correct me if my calculations are wrong.

Confessions and realities

42M, 55LPA

I am a 42-year-old man with a senior job in IT. I have a house in Chennai, a supportive wife, and two children. On paper, everything about my life looks perfect. I have achieved all the things society says a man should achieve.

In my twenties, life felt different. I had friends to spend time with. We would hang out at Marina Beach and Besant Nagar beach, watch movies at Rohini, Udayam, and Kasi theatres, and ride around Mount Road on my RX100.

In my thirties, I had colleagues to talk with over tea breaks. We would discuss apartments, onsite trips, and share random stories about life and work.

But now, in my forties, life has turned into a quiet routine. My phone rarely rings for anything personal. Most calls are about office work, bank alerts, or someone from home asking me to pick up milk on the way back.

The loneliness of a man in his forties is unusual. I am not physically alone, but I often feel like a machine.

When I enter my home, I am simply “Appa.” I am the person who pays school fees, fixes the Wi-Fi, and handles repairs. My wife is busy with her work and the kids. My children are teenagers now, living in their own worlds and their own rooms. They love me, but they mostly see me as the person who provides comfort and stability. They no longer see me as an individual.

At the office, I am the senior person. I am expected to have all the answers. I cannot tell my team that I feel tired. I cannot tell my boss that I sometimes struggle to keep up with new technologies. I must appear confident and strong, even when I quietly worry about the future.

Sometimes I drive home slowly from work just to spend a few extra minutes in the car. I listen to songs from my college days.
For those fifteen minutes, I am not a manager or a father. I am simply myself again.

I realize that I have not had a real conversation about my feelings with anyone in years.

My old friends now exist mostly as names on WhatsApp. We send “Happy Birthday” or “Congratulations” messages, but rarely talk. When we meet at weddings, our conversations revolve around our children’s grades or the cars we drive. We never talk about what we actually feel.

The hardest part is that I cannot even complain. If I tell my family that I feel lonely, they look confused and say, “But we are all here with you.”
They do not understand that a person can be surrounded by people and still feel like they are on a desert island.

Society teaches men that if they provide money and security, they have succeeded in life.
But no one teaches us how to deal with the silence that comes with it.

I have built a beautiful life for everyone around me, but sometimes it feels like there is no space left for me inside it.

And maybe… this is what life in your forties feels like.

@1shankarsharma “Frame” - bro are you serious? Just someone brokered a peace deal, the sponsorship of terror is gone, better you stick to investing

[Roads of Mumbai @RoadsOfMumbai]

Mumbai will never be an international city until we get rid of:

• Illegal Encroachments/Hawkers
• Bumpy roads without lane markings
• Illegal flex banners (primarily by political parties)
• Broken and encroached footpaths
• Littering and dust on roads

@district_india Team, you need to fix the seating view in your app, we booked 2 seats together but it was separated when we reach theatre. Clearly mismatch. PVR - PXL screen Oberoi Mumbai. There are just 3 seats vs 4 shown

[पाकीट तज्ञ @paakittadnya]

Mumbai has 500,000 illegal Hawkers.

A 100₹ daily hafta would ensure the ecosystem earning 5 Crore daily and almost 1800 Crore annually.

Bade Sahab used to get 15% cut which meant 270 Crore just from the Hawkers excluding all other sources.

Imagine the loot over 3 decades.

@varundubey Any plan to open source the Super OS, multiple uses case could be built along side building community to implement more features

@sjlazars @aaipunairport @Myopindia This has been a norm with all the store outlets where bill would be received on phone. Agree it is very difficult to understand what charges would have been applied if you buy lot of items and not easy to track

[Commissioner of Police, Greater Mumbai @CPMumbaiPolice]

Every Tuesday at 3:30 PM, you can meet me in person at the @MumbaiPolice headquarters to present your doubts, problems, and complaints.

No prior permission is required. Understanding and addressing your concerns is our top priority.

My blood boils every time I drive over JVLR.

It is a disgrace to every taxpayer in this city.

It is such a shame that an arterial road in India's financial capital is in such a terrible shape.

Not even 200 metres are without any bumps.

@mybmc please fix it before our cars literally disintegrate.

[RC @iamRCD]

@BesuraTaansane The sad reality is that they still feel there are people who can be fooled easily and such people do exist. It is these party’s conditioning of the people at ground level which make them believe whatever they feed. Deliberate depriving of quality education played a crucial role.

@Akshat_World Akshat, What would be the fair level you would buy?

As Indians, we must fight to strengthen the power of NOTA. If NOTA receives the highest number of votes, all contesting candidates should be disqualified and fresh elections must be conducted with new candidates. Only then will politicians be forced to take the public seriously.

Today, NOTA has no real consequence, which is why political parties continue to field incompetent, corrupt, or unworthy candidates. A powerful NOTA will act as a warning to the entire political class, Only then we can expect some reforms!

If you have no insurance,
hospital bill for a surgery – Rs 2,00,000

If you have 10 lakh insurance,
hospital bill for a surgery – Rs 10,00,000

We have MRP for products.

Why can’t we bring Maximum Treatment Price (MTP) in healthcare?
