Hello Sir, Daughter has completed Masters in Microbiology but not getting any job. Please guide what is the best course to do further to enhance job opportunities. She is not interested to go for phd

Ans: Hello.

Sad to hear that even after completing a Master's in Microbiology, your daughter does not have any job. It is not clear when your daughter has completed her Master's and where she tried to get the job. Here I am assuming that during the curriculum, she might have not focussed on extracurricular activities and did not gain the additional knowledge from a job placement point of view. Apart from the interest, ask her to enroll for P.Hd. No doubt, it is a lengthy program, but there is no alternative to it.
Yet, to get the job, ask your daughter to enroll in the following courses as per her choice.
(1) Clinical Research (2) DMLT or MLT (Medical Lab Technology ) (3) Biotechnology/Bioinformatics (4) Food Safety & Quality Management (5) Regulatory Affairs
Apart from these courses, tell her to excel in computer-relevant courses. Search for some suitable courses from the Coursera website. Keep a close eye on Employment News Paper and the latest requirements in the relevant field.

Career

Hello Sir, my daughter is in class 12 and has taken PCB. She is expecting 80-85 percetage in board exams. She wants to go to USA yo pursue her medical. We are very middle class family. Can you suggest good colleges and the expenses ? And also please tell us if she can get any scholarship for the same

Ans: Hi Sir,

Your query is quite unique. Your daughter wants to pursue medicine in the US specifically, rather than in other countries. One important consideration is whether she plans to return to India after completing her studies, which is likely not the case.

If she chooses to return to India, she will need to obtain eligibility through the NEET exam, which is required for most countries, with some uncertainty regarding the US. If she decides to pursue her medical education in the US, I recommend that she completes the USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Examination). Successfully completing the USMLE will make her eligible to practice medicine in the US.

State universities are the best options and require visiting their websites for scholarship information.

Question by Neha - Jan 21, 2025Hindi

Money

Hello, my mother is 62 year old pensioner. She has invested funds in government securities and postal schemes. Despite submitting 15H form and filing ITR (as a senior citizen person), her tax is getting deducted. Can you kindly explain why this is happening?

Ans: There are a few possible reasons why TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) is being deducted from your mother's investments, despite submitting Form 15H and filing ITR.

1. Incorrect or Late Submission of Form 15H
Form 15H must be submitted at the start of the financial year to all institutions where she has investments.
If submitted after TDS is deducted, it won’t apply retrospectively to recover the deducted tax.
Ensure the form is submitted separately to each bank, post office, or financial institution.
2. Exceeding the Basic Exemption Limit
For senior citizens (60+ years), income up to Rs. 3 lakhs is tax-free.
If her total taxable income (pension + interest from investments) exceeds Rs. 3 lakhs, TDS will still apply.
Even if TDS is deducted, she can claim a refund while filing her ITR if her total tax liability is zero.
3. Form 15H Validity Rules
Form 15H is only valid if total taxable income is below the exemption limit.
If her total income is more than Rs. 3 lakhs, banks and post offices will ignore Form 15H and deduct TDS.
4. Different TDS Thresholds for Investments
Banks deduct TDS on FD interest if it exceeds Rs. 50,000 per year for senior citizens.
Post Office schemes (like SCSS) deduct TDS if interest crosses Rs. 50,000 per year.
Government securities may also have TDS rules based on the issuing authority.
5. PAN Not Updated with the Bank/Post Office
If PAN is not linked to the investment accounts, higher TDS at 20% is deducted.
Ensure all investments have PAN updated to avoid excess TDS.
6. Errors in Tax Deduction System
Sometimes, banks deduct TDS even if Form 15H is submitted correctly.
In such cases, she can file an ITR and claim a refund from the Income Tax Department.
What to Do Now?
Check total taxable income to confirm if she qualifies for Form 15H.
Verify all Form 15H submissions with banks and post offices.
Ensure PAN is updated in all financial institutions.
If TDS is wrongly deducted, file an ITR and claim a refund.
Would you like help with checking if she is eligible for a refund?

My sister wants give Rs.49lakhs to purchase a land in 2024-25 to construct house later transaction will be through bank only whether gift tax is to be paid? is so who has to pay

Ans: There is no gift tax in India, but the amount received as a gift is taxed under the Income Tax Act, 1961 as "Income from Other Sources" unless exempted.

Tax Implications on Gift from Sister
Gifts from specified relatives (including a sibling) are fully exempt from tax under Section 56(2)(x) of the Income Tax Act.
Since your sister is a specified relative, the Rs. 49 lakhs gift will be tax-free in your hands.
Your sister will also not have to pay any tax on the gifted amount, as India does not have a separate gift tax.
Important Points to Ensure Tax Compliance
The transaction should be done through a bank transfer to maintain a proper record.
A gift deed is recommended (on stamp paper) to legally document the transaction.
There are no tax deductions for the giver, meaning your sister cannot claim this gift as an expense.
Final Answer
No gift tax is applicable since the amount is received from a sister.
You do not have to pay income tax on the received gift.
Your sister will also not have any tax liability on gifting the amount.
Let me know if you need more clarification!

My son is a Singapore citizen. He has a flat in his name in Co-op. Hous. Soc. in Navi Mumbai purchased in 2005. He wants to sell it. Will you please suggest ways to repatriate the proceeds with least tax implications?

Ans: Selling property in India as a non-resident involves several steps. It's important to follow these steps to ensure compliance with Indian laws and to minimize tax liabilities. Here's a detailed guide to assist your son:

1. Understanding Capital Gains Tax

Long-Term Capital Gains (LTCG): Since the property was purchased in 2005 and is being sold now, it qualifies as a long-term asset. LTCG is taxed at 20% for non-resident Indians (NRIs).

Indexation Benefit: This benefit adjusts the purchase price for inflation, reducing taxable gains.

2. Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) Obligations

TDS Rate: The buyer must deduct TDS at 20% on LTCG for NRIs. Ensure the buyer complies with this requirement.

3. Repatriation of Sale Proceeds

NRO Account: Deposit the sale proceeds into a Non-Resident Ordinary (NRO) account.

Repatriation Limit: NRIs can repatriate up to USD 1 million per financial year from their NRO account, provided all taxes are paid.

4. Documentation for Repatriation

Tax Clearance: Obtain a certificate from a Chartered Accountant in Form 15CB.

Bank Procedures: Submit Form 15CA to the bank. These forms confirm that taxes have been paid.

5. Tax Exemptions to Reduce Liability

Section 54: Invest LTCG in another residential property in India within specified timelines to claim exemption.

Section 54EC: Invest in specified bonds within six months of sale to avail exemption. The maximum investment limit is Rs 50 lakhs.

6. Currency Exchange Considerations

Exchange Rate: The prevailing exchange rate at the time of repatriation will apply.

Bank Charges: Be aware of potential charges during the transfer process.

7. Professional Consultation

Certified Financial Planner: Consult a Certified Financial Planner to navigate the complexities of taxation and repatriation.

By following these steps, your son can efficiently manage the sale and repatriation process, ensuring compliance and minimizing tax liabilities.

Asked by Anonymous - Jan 24, 2025Hindi

Relationship

I have been married for more than 3 weeks. And I don't like my husband. I didn't like him before the marriage and it was very clear to my family tht I didn't like him. But my parents forced me to get married to him and it was my fault tht I couldn't prioritise my feelings. I considered what would happen to them if I called off the engagement. And after being married I have been more than depressed. My parents keeps telling what I should do. I don't let him touch me since I don't like him I asked him for some time and on the 2nd day he made a huge issue in my family telling them that I don't let him touch me. I started to resent him after this. Everyone around me keeps on telling Me that he will go abroad in 2 weeks so I should do whatever a wife does. it's been 3 weeks and continuous arguments. I'm so sad. I'm scared of what would happen if I leave this marriage. I can't stay in my own family because they would treat me so bad. I would have to stay alone. Thinking about the uncertain future and consequences am not able to do anything. Am stuck in this miserable situation.

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
For sure, it's difficult to be physically intimate with someone that you do not fancy and he is being silly in making this public. Rather than winning you over, he's making it a public issue to gain sympathy which his highly immature.
Now, I am going to give you an example that you may not like.
Eg: You have to live in Japan for 2 years and you do not like that cuisine. But eventually you realize that 2 years is a long time and then you actually start enjoying the food by looking at what's nice in it; healthy, light, good on the heart etc.

It's the same here. You may have gotten forced into the marriage. But it's just 3 weeks. Give it time...NO, you do not have to engage in any physical intimacy with him right away; but at least try to get to know him...maybe someday you might start to appreciate his good qualities, yeah? See, if this is possible in the short time that you have...it's just about having an open mind. Marriages are easy to break, think hard on this one.

All the best!

Always irritating, commenting shouting, never support me in any case. I m educated and working before I gave birth to my elder one but I left it due to unavailability of people at home to take care her. Whenever I talk about my career, liking and interest he is least bother. Total negative energy everywhere. Children are also irritating but they need both. I am confused what to do? How ti handle it and how to save my children from this negativity

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
Maybe it's time for you to revive your work life. That will give you a sense of financial independence and also you will be able to spend money on things that you feel like. It will also rekindle your confidence. Find some help at home so that the children are taken care of OR work from home. This will open up a lot of possibilities for you.
