Working pharma industry for 2 decades and building business with eticsl practice but for last 2 years management is using discount in various states ,as a result for GST , as my state doesn't have discount, stocks comes in from different states and we are degrowing for 2 years. On the contrary hierarchy knows everything but not ready to accept and asking me to leave . What can be done to stop this corruption on legal front.
Ans: Hi,

Your concern is about the stability of your job, despite having expertise and skills. You are facing challenges due to GST and Ethics in Business.

I want to commend you for maintaining ethical business practices for the past two decades. Taxation is a common aspect of business, practiced worldwide, including in developed countries. Although some countries may have exceptions, it's important to note that in India, we have transitioned from various taxation systems to GST from VAT. Compared to VAT, GST offers numerous advantages for consumers and business people involved in procurement, manufacturing, and sales. One of the main benefits is transparency in business operations, allowing for comprehensive tracking from start to finish. Due to this enhanced transparency, illegal vendors are facing difficulties with GST.

Therefore, I advise you not to worry about GST in your business. Instead, focus on collecting and sharing information related to your business with your management. If the management does not listen or is not convinced by your expertise and ideas, I suggest considering leaving the organization. With your skills and expertise, you can explore opportunities in other organizations or even start your own business. Additionally, the current central government is supporting entrepreneurship by providing financial assistance for startups.

So, do not worry and proceed confidently.

I want to persue my masters but because of some health issues i am not able to join regular college should i opt for distance course . Will it be helpful if i am interested in teaching .
Ans: Hey, if you're thinking about becoming a teacher, I recommend going for a traditional in-person course instead of an online or distance learning program. You'll learn better in a regular class setting compared to online courses. So, I suggest pursuing your postgraduate studies through a traditional program

I know that traditional program will be better but my health is a concern here is the prblm . I get sick as i consume food from outside or hostel foods . Cooking everyday will be also a difficult job as one has to attend classes also . Please suggest what will be best as i have also taken year gap bcz of this concern. And if i go for distance learning program will it be a waste or be beneficial for my future.
Ans: "I strongly suggest that you attend regular classes instead of virtual ones. While virtual classes offer many teaching methods, they cannot replace traditional in-person learning. Additionally, you may not receive as much support in virtual classes.

Cooking before attending classes should not be an issue. You have already completed your undergraduate degree and are mature enough to handle this for a maximum of 10 months. In your second year of postgraduate studies, you will be working on a project, so food issues will not be a concern at that time.

To succeed in life, it is important to plan your day in advance. As a woman, cooking should not be an issue.

I cook my food on a daily basis and go to work (working as an associate professor). I handle 3 subjects (chemistry-based) and need to teach for 4-5 hours a day. Compared to students, teachers have to prepare a lot. If I feel stressed about food concerns, it becomes very difficult for me to focus during classes.
So, for better knowledge acquisition, attend regular classes."

The family income of the applicant should be less than or equal to ?8,00,000 per annum.
The applicant who wants to take admitted under the Lateral Entry Scheme have to pass a Diploma in Engineering from the Polytechnic Institutes recognized by the Directorate of Technical Education(DTE), J&K, and Ladakh.

A merit list will be prepared for HSC and Lateral Entry students and the same will be displayed on the AICTE portal for the conduction of online counseling for the final allotment of seats in colleges to eligible candidates subject to choice filling/availability of scholarships.

If you are not eligible for the PM scholarship, consider applying for the TATA scholarship. TATA offers scholarships of around 1L/year through the Jamsetjee Nusserwanjee Tata Endowment for The Higher Education Of Indians (Established in 1892).

ALL THE BEST.

Good day Sir. My son is in final year MBBS and shall graduate in 2025 and complete his compulsory internship in a April 2026 . He does not prefer Family Medicine or paediatric medicine and he has not finalized his passion for any particular stream yet. He wants to do his Masters from UK or USA. I understand USMLE is required for USA and PLAB is required for UK studies. My queries are : 1. What are expenses for completing USMLE and PLAB ? 2. What are possibilities of getting Residencies in USA / UK ? 3. Shall he require additional financial support after getting Residencies ? Pros and Cons of studies in both the countries ? 5. Any specific requirement for studies abroad ? 6. Finally, your suggestion as to where my son should do his Masters after completing his MBBS in India ? I shall appreciate your valuable guidance . Thanks and regards Sujit Roy
Ans: Hi Sujit,
Hello,

I am pleased to learn that your son will be completing his MBBS next year and is considering pursuing higher education. From your query, it seems that you are contemplating whether he should pursue his higher education abroad. There are several factors that need to be taken into consideration before making a decision. Some of these factors include:

1. He will need to clear the USMLE or PLAB exams, which will require dedicated effort. Until he completes these exams, he will require both financial and moral support.

2. The specialization he is interested in pursuing is a crucial factor to consider.

3. The choice of university will also play a significant role, as it may impact the availability of financial aid.

4. Additionally, it is important to weigh the pros and cons of studying in the USA or the UK and make an informed decision based on the specifics of each country.

Ultimately, the decision about his higher education should be made based on your financial circumstances and the support that can be provided without undue strain.

But i feel USA is better option when compare to UK.

"All the best to your son for his future endeavors."
