Career

Hi Rajesh I have 24 years of work experience. In 2023 I got laid off from my current company. I was working as a CTO. I have worked extensively in market research and consulting but I am struggling to get a job in my industry in India. I tried abroad also but nothing is working. What should I do? Please guide. regards SD

Ans: Dear Dr, You have very good experience . You can try searching by keeping the industry open . These days clients prefer people from different industries aswell as they bring in a very different perspective. Normally the hiring takes a backseat during dec, but hopefully it should pick up from Jan. All the very best !

I have around 15 years of work experience in logistics and supply chain and have worked in many reputed organisation but in May 2023 I suddenly lost my job in Qwik Supply Chain Pvt Ltd due to layoff. Till date I am not been able to find a job.I am 46 years of age. I am confused what to do - should I look for doing something on my own or continue my job search. I am from Kolkata.

Ans: Hey.. Cheer up you have 15 yrs of experience and that's a wealth any organization would love to have, however I see you haven't been able to get a suitable placement till now, well 46 is surely not retirement age, so step 1 Retook at your resume, today resumes not more than 2 pages, include key result areas, profit zones that helped your organization.. In the meanwhile having done all this, search for organisation's in your area of activity, send you redeveloped resume.. Also look for consultant roles in related organisation's.. Kolkatta is a City of Joy.. Sure you will be successful!

Unable to find job for almost a year now. What are my options . I have a family too take care. Unable to think ahead. Can you please suggest something

Ans: Dear Praveen

I can feel your pain...please do not take this as reflection of your capabilities rather it's just how the job market works.

Given your rich experience would suggest you explore freelancing with similar companies, you can help them with designing sales processes, offering training program to their sales team or even run their back end sales operations

Several companies now a days prefer freelancers and your experience will be a great fit

All the best.

Hi My father purchase ist and barsati floor in 1986 @ 2 lac... He made 3rd floor construction... We dont have construction expenses bills Now he want to sell@ 10 lac each floor to 3 indiviual buyers, means total 30 lac sale considration ., how it can be shown in income tax... Will 2 lac buy value is divide in 3 floor?

Ans: 01. As per details provided in the question, your Cost for all the three Flats is Rs.2,00,000.00 only. This is due to lack of documentary evidence about Cost of Construction (Bills & Source of Finance etc.).
02. LTCG tax may be comparativly less, if you opt for LTCG calculation without Indexation.
03. I would suggest you to get a Certificate of an Architect, who would certify the cost of your property as on 01.04.2001. You may treat this as your Cost for 3 flats and work out your tax details.
Most welcome for any further clarification. Thanks.
