@financebyanmol 90% people don't make money so the government won't get money thru ltcg or stcg but people do make transaction and do trade so STT is a fixed thing that they will get.
A man earning ₹18,000 a month saved little by little to buy a ₹1,350 school bag for his daughter.
While buying it, he told the shopkeeper, "Please give me a strong one. It should last for a long time."
The next day, his daughter proudly took the new bag to school. Her classmates loved it. Everyone wanted to see it. Some opened the zipper, some checked the pockets, and some even tried it on.
While looking at the bag, one child accidentally pulled the zipper too hard, and it broke.
The classroom became silent.
A friend said, "Let's tell the teacher who broke it."
The girl walked toward the teacher but then stopped. She thought, "Dad worked so hard to buy this bag. I'll ask him first what I should do."
When she reached home, she tried to hide the bag, but her father noticed the broken zipper.
He gently asked, "What happened, dear?"
Through tears, she explained everything and asked, "Should I complain to the teacher tomorrow?"
Her father smiled and said, "I'm not worried about the ₹1,350 bag. I'm happy that you didn't blame anyone in anger. Sometimes people make mistakes without meaning to."
The next day at school, the girl whose hands had broken the zipper came to her with ₹500 from her piggy bank and said, "This is all I have right now. I'll pay the rest later."
The daughter refused to take the money.
When she told her father about it that evening, he smiled and said,
"See, if you had argued or complained immediately, you might have lost a friend. But because you stayed calm and trusted her, she got the chance to admit her mistake."
That day, the daughter learned an important lesson:
Money can replace things, but honesty, kindness, and the courage to accept a mistake are far more valuable.
