@IndianGems_ And if the government claims that they are building infrastructure with these taxes , then why do they collect toll and road tax ? Then remove toll completely
@DChaurasia2312 Questions without investigation 🙏Then how did you come up with what questions you want to ask.
Or as usual you were given the list of questions
Finally someone from @INCIndia raising real issues. Just dont let this issue divert to something else and crush the Government EGO that no one can challenge them🙏 We are okay with ethanol blending but we need choice for pure petrol and that too at reasonable rate. Crude is almost below pre war level but petrol prices are still very much high.
Sources indicate that around 170 MoUs worth ₹30,000 crore have been signed, while the state government has stated that investment proposals exceeding ₹35,000 crore are currently being implemented across the six defence corridor nodes. Land has been allotted to dozens of investors and actual investments of about ₹9,463 crore had materialized by May 2025
@OfficialSBICare I haven’t registered the complaint, but we are applying through Jansamarth, if still loan is not sanctioned then will file a complaint
We pay Income Tax, GST, Road Tax, Fuel Tax and then Toll Tax. Yet many highways remain in poor condition.
Recently, a toll plaza’s machine failed to scan my FASTag despite having sufficient balance. The staff demanded double toll in cash. It was late at night, and rather than argue at the plaza and risk further delay, I paid and moved on.
Later, when I called the helpline to report the issue, I was told that since I had left the toll plaza, no complaint could be registered.
This is exactly the problem. Citizens are expected to pay instantly, but accountability disappears the moment you leave.
What’s worse is that our expectations have become so low that we celebrate roads being built even when they are poorly planned, badly executed, and a waste of taxpayers’ money. I have filed a PIL with evidence of roads being constructed without proper surveys. We deserve better infrastructure and better accountability.
@chinmay Did your employee bought the share or they were received to them as perq?
If the shares were received to them free of cost as part of employment then it is part of the salary
@bharatbetpf Almost every Indian Doing SIP in MF are shareholders of Indian IT majors and they have right to ask questions to them. We invested our capital in these companies and we have expectations from them. Ab Har koi to IT me kaam nahi kar sakta na.
Around ₹1–1.5 lakh crore is sitting in cash and liquid investments with major Indian IT companies.
Even if they had invested aggressively in AI infrastructure and research, nothing would have prevented them from continuing their core IT services business, which earns valuable foreign exchange, helps reduce India’s trade deficit, and generates large-scale employment.
The deeper issue is our reluctance to take meaningful R&D and innovation risks. India’s IT giants did not seriously attempt to build globally relevant consumer internet platforms comparable to Facebook, WhatsApp, or Twitter. Several countries that restricted these platforms successfully developed domestic alternatives. Yet we have not seen a coordinated effort from our leading IT firms to build even proven digital products for the Indian market.
As for the stock market argument, some say that investing heavily in GPUs and AI would have caused a 30% crash in share prices. But many IT stocks have already corrected significantly (more than 50%) despite not making such investments. More importantly, markets often reward credible long-term investments in technology and innovation rather than penalize them.
India’s AI ambitions require a collaborative approach. A consortium of major Indian IT companies, supported by government and academia, can pool capital, talent, computing infrastructure, and research capabilities to build a strong indigenous AI ecosystem.
If India wants to be more than just a consumer of AI, we must be willing to invest, innovate, and take calculated risks.
Dear @OlaElectric,@bhash
I am both an Ola S1X customer and a shareholder. I have used other EVs as well, including Ather and Hero, but considering price, features, and utility, I find the overall Ola experience superior.
I have one key suggestion: move to a pure dealership model and ensure strict profiling and scrutiny of dealers before onboarding them.
Today, vehicles are sold both online and through dealers. This creates a situation where many dealers have limited incentive to focus on servicing and maintenance, which directly affects customer satisfaction and future sales.
As per available data, Ola has 3,184 showrooms across 701 cities. In April, registrations were around 12,166 vehicles, which works out to an average of just 3.8 vehicles per showroom per month. This indicates significant scope for improving dealer productivity and customer engagement.
I genuinely believe Ola can become for EV two-wheelers what Hero became for petrol two-wheelers. A stronger dealership network with better accountability and service standards can significantly improve ownership experience, customer trust, and ultimately sales growth.
A suggestion from an Ola user and shareholder.
