So, currently I am in my final year of a 3 year bachelor's degree in biotechnology. I am so confused about what to do after. I am not that interested in going for research but, I definitely want to explore the entrepreneurial side of this field in future. In India, master's program in biotechnology are not that great (as far as I have researched). Is going for an MBA a better option or should I look for master's program abroad? Now the current market abroad is also struggling and the biasness against Indians is also increasing. What are the options and opportunities available for biotech graduates (bachelor's) immediately after getting out of college??

Ans: If your goal is to venture into the entrepreneurial side of biotech, pursuing an MBA in entrepreneurship or biotech management would provide you with the business acumen to succeed.
If you're keen on deepening your technical expertise, a master’s abroad in biotechnology could give you exposure to innovation and international markets.
For immediate post-bachelor's jobs, look for opportunities in biotech firms, government roles, or startups while building entrepreneurial skills through internships or certifications.

I had 100 Tata motors shares from 2014. last year 31 shares they transferred to the IEPF account without any intimation for not claiming the dividend of 2015 ( Rs.6.5 total) . I submitted all the documents they listed in the instruction mail once I wrote to the company including indemnity, affidavit and others. filed the IEPF form-5 in the website and sent it to Tata motors for verification. They didn't do the verification within the time frame and all my efforts are wasted now. I have spent around Rs.2000 for these additional process also. What can I do now? Can I file a consumer case against Tata motors since the lapse happened from their side? Or is it any scam? Right from the beginning, I was not getting any support from the company.

Ans: Hello;

You may register complaint with exchange (BSE/NSE).

If the concern still remains unresolved you may escalate to Sebi.

Online complaint filing should be possible with all these agencies however you need to have soft copies of documentary evidences to be furnished to substantiate your case.

Best wishes;

Question by Shrinivas - Nov 27, 2024Hindi

Health

My left neck pains, left hand and arm pains, sometimes it tingles, imbalance problem. Is this cervical spondylosis or anything else. I m suffering this for past 2 years. Can you please help me with a proper solution. Please help me.

Ans: Dear Mr. Shrinivas . Thank you for your query. Yes, your symptoms—left-sided neck pain, arm pain, tingling, and imbalance—are typical signs of cervical spondylosis. This condition occurs due to age-related wear and tear of the cervical spine, leading to nerve compression, which can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the arms.

I strongly recommend that you visit a physiotherapist for a proper assessment. They will evaluate your posture, neck mobility, and nerve involvement before designing a personalized treatment plan. Physiotherapy may include postural correction, neck-strengthening exercises, manual therapy, and nerve mobilization techniques to relieve symptoms and improve function.

In the meantime, you can try neck stretches, apply heat or ice, and maintain proper posture while working or using mobile devices. However, do not ignore persistent symptoms, as timely physiotherapy can prevent worsening of the condition. Please visit a specialist soon for the best guidance and treatment

Ans: Section 234B of I.T.Act deals with payment of Interest for delay in payment of Advance Tax, if applicable.
