Respected Sir, I invested in ICICI PRUD MF Rs. 40000 on 30-11-2005, and purchased NFO units (NAV=10, No. Of Units= 3911.980) after a gap of nearly 18 Years, in the month of August 2023, I made redemption request for all units for all units, and received Rs. 416799 with TDS deducted Rs. 6925. While Filing current IT RETURN, you are requested to guide me under which income head i have to show this said amount, and whether i have to pay tax liability on whole amount , any exemption therein. Regards

Ans: Form : ITR 2
Income head : Capital gains
Tax liability depends upon your other income sources. If only this is the amount of income then no tax liability.

Please consult with your CA as well on this.

Tejas ji, I am a teacher by profession. Last FY, I opted for the old tax scheme and using all available options brought my taxable income to just under 5 lakhs. So no TDS was deducted by my employer. However, in March 2023, I withdrew Rs. 65000 from my tax saver mutual fund due to urgent needs. Can you please tell me if there is any tax due coz of this withdrawl? Which ITR form do I need to file this year?
Ans: Respected Sir,

you may file either ITR- 1 or ITR-2 depending on the complexity of the income. Yes, the lock in period of 3 years applies on ELSS schemes and if withdrawn before that it would attract taxability. Please look at the below a detailed note, which would be helpful to you. Withdrawal from Tax Saver Mutual Fund: If you made a withdrawal of Rs. 65,000 from your tax saver mutual fund, it's important to note that withdrawals from equity-linked saving schemes (ELSS) are subject to tax implications.

- ELSS investments have a lock-in period of three years. Withdrawals made before the completion of the lock-in period are considered as short-term capital gains.

ITR Form: Since you are a teacher by profession, your income is likely from salary and other sources. If you do not have any business income, you would typically file your income tax return using ITR-1 (Sahaj) or ITR-2, depending on the complexity of your income sources.

ITR-1 (Sahaj): For individuals having income from salary, one house property, other sources (like interest income), and total income up to Rs. 50 lakh.
ITR-2: For individuals and Hindu Undivided Families (HUFs) not eligible to file ITR-1 and having income from salary, house property, capital gains, and more than one house property, etc.

Sir, I have got your contact from RediffGurus. I approach you to guide me in my present situation. I have more than 30 years experience in export sales and also import procurement. Have been successful in developing new export markets and also importing quality material from abroad at competitive prices. All these activities have been under employment only, Where employers earned a lot, and brought me only wah wah, shabash, but no financial gains. Now I am retired, but still quite active mentally and physically. I have an idea which if backed with right financial background, can be a money spinner . The idea is to deal in metal import export trading. I can source international standard quality copper, aluminium, stainless steel etc., from China and other countries at 20 to 30% below market price. These can be sold to hungry Indian buyers here. I can assure, subject to investment, a profit of approx. Rs. 5 to 10 crore in first year itself. And of course a huge, unlimited market exists for these metals in vast Africa, where I have travelled many times and understand how business is conducted there . Now may I request you to tell me if it is possible to get a silent investor. For security purpose, I am ready to conduct entire business in investor's or his company's name, provided my interests are safe. Wahaj Nuri.
Ans: Dear Wahaj,

Your proposition is definitely sounding interesting, but as you have laid your idea and thoughts randomly here, it is not translating into a viable business. Have you prepared a comprehensive Business Plan? Have you worked on Business Frame work?
I would suggest to complete your offerings on papers, write/overwrite/correct/cut/revise and then bring a conclusive business proposition which none can refuse.
Regards

Hi Nripen Sir, I am started my own market research(Secondary Research) firm bootstrapped without team and working on it. I want to know how to do customer or client acquisition. I have 10 years of market research experience. I am sole person to handle this. Also, I want to know do i need investment for this type of firms.
Ans: Let me congratulate you first, it is an excellent initiative you have taken, there are several firms in Market Research but there is always a demand for a genuine data driven research firm.
Initially you do not need a big team, you can handle solo, and when you require first go for management undergraduates as interns.
If you work smart client acquisition and retention will be really easy and smooth you can go step by step:
Create a one-page professional website, keep your clients’ segment in view and develop the content accordingly. Define methodology and tools in such a way that potential clients should relate immediately with their requirements. Don’t write lengthy content. Be precise be crisp.
Use business email id only.
Get very smart stationary printed, letterheads over 100 GSM, nice envelops, attractive business cards etc.
Search the websites where startups are registered such as startup India, start in up, istart etc., you will find a lot of startups who are in Launch phase or in Growth Phase, both look for secondary market research.
Exporters can be your potential clients.
Tourist planners.
Medical startups.
You have huge market for your service, start from here and you may ask time to time for further steps.
All the best
