@evelectree @INCIndia @INCKarnataka @DKShivakumar @TeslaClubIN @EVZindabad Even though EV sales have crashed by 50% right now, people will eventually get over the tax shock and start buying them again. Govt fills it's coffers and distribute freebie.

Hey @INCIndia @INCKarnataka @DKShivakumar which thriving sector do you plan to "tax into oblivion" next? While the rest of India races ahead, Karnataka is pioneering a new way to move backward. This new EV tax is truly a shocking milestone in regression. @TeslaClubIN @EVZindabad

🏆 Rajasthan enters Top 5 for monthly EV sales in May 2026

🤒 No prize for guessing — Karnataka drops out with 50% fall from 3,081 units to 1,531 units due to RTO rates.

⚡ Telangna is seeing a constant but massive surge each month

@evelectree @INCIndia @INCKarnataka @DKShivakumar @TeslaClubIN @EVZindabad This tax lets the government grab their money upfront right when the vehicle is sold. This government is totally bleeding cash because of all the freebies they're handing out, they desperately need funds.

Respected @nsitharaman ji and @FinMinIndia,
Suggestion 2 of 3 for strengthening India's capital markets:

Dividend income on listed equities should not be subjected to double taxation.

A business can raise capital in only two ways: debt or equity.
When a company raises debt, the interest paid to lenders is treated as a business expense and deducted before tax. The lender may then pay tax on the interest received.

However, when a company raises equity capital, dividends are paid out of profits that have already suffered corporate tax. The shareholder is then taxed again on the same stream of income.

More importantly, equity capital bears far greater risk than debt capital. A lender has a contractual right to interest and principal repayment. A shareholder has no such guarantee. Dividends are discretionary, capital is fully at risk, and the shareholder stands last in line if a business fails.

If debt providers receive tax-deductible compensation despite bearing lower risk, there is a strong case for more favourable treatment of equity providers who supply the permanent capital that fuels entrepreneurship, innovation, employment and economic growth.

India needs to encourage long-term risk capital and greater participation in equity markets. Tax policy should reward those who provide patient equity capital to Indian enterprises rather than place them at a relative disadvantage compared to debt capital.

Respectfully submitted.

Funny to see that she questions about press freedom in India when more than 80% of the Indian journalists run their business by abusing the PM and the BJP. This is exactly why the Hon'ble PM prefers addressing the nation directly and interacting with normal citizens through various innovative methods and podcasts, instead of communicating with the masses through journalists who simply act as brokers of their paymasters.

⚡️India’s 4.14 lakh EVs have already avoided ₹88,626 crore in crude oil imports. That is nearly ₹90,000 crore in forex saved. Real government data, full calculation, and a strong case for lower GST on EVs⚡️

@NYCMayor And just like that, starts the downfall of a beautiful city.

@INCKarnataka Govt is essentially telling EV owners, Thank you for being environmentally conscious now please pay for everyone else’s bus ticket 🤣 @siddaramaiah

@Corballyred Lol. Fulham never pressed us. Nothing to be happy about. When other teams press you will see our player shit, left right and center.

@DaveOCKOP Salah exerts an undeniable influence over the squad, commanding a level of loyalty that feels almost absolute. By hosting private gatherings at his home, he’s cultivated an inner circle that operates with a 'gang' mentality. See for yourself his insta gang and performance.

This is of the best things about Nandankanan Zoological Park, Bhubaneswar 👏

1. Carrying a plastic water bottle? You pay a refundable ₹50 deposit & get it back after returning the empty bottle.

2. Packaged food in plastic? It must be transferred into a paper bag before entry.

Simple rules, big impact.
A great example of how small steps can keep our environment clean.

[Padmanabha @paddybhat]

@DaveOCKOP It's time to leave when you don't have player backing. Good coach but not suited for Liverpool intensity.

[Padmanabha @paddybhat]

@TeslaClubIN And already back in ukkinadka 🤣. I can see how much you love driving tesla.

@TeslaClubIN Efficiency 🤯

[Mohandas Pai @TVMohandasPai]

Madame FM @nsitharaman please explain what is the benefit to citizens for this huge infusion of tax payers funds? You are covering up the huge losses of @BSNLCorporate , propping up a very inefficient co which earns so little. Is there no better use of hard earned money of taxpayers? Is losing tax payers money a proud achievement? @FinancialXpress @FinMinIndia can you give us a cost benefit analysis please? Very wrong to pour our hard earned money into a deep black hole!
