I have retired from central PSU in October 2022. Whether my Earned Leave Encashment amount I received during my retirement is taxable during current year, since exemption amount increased from Rs. 3.00 Lakhs to Rs. 25.00 Lakhs.

Ans: Hello Investor

As a financial advisor, I would advise you to consult a chartered accountant for specific tax planning advice. They have expertise and in-depth knowledge of tax laws and regulations and can provide you with personalized strategies to minimize your tax liability. I can assist you in creating a comprehensive financial plan, but for tax planning, it is best to consult a tax professional.

Dear Sir, My son's JEE mains (year 2025) rank is 52330. JEE ADVANCED rank is 13975. General catagory. IAT score 139 marks. He is interested in research in Physics and / or Maths from IISC / top 3 IISERs. His class 12th score is 99% for MPC and overall 86%. Please guide.
Ans: With an IAT score of 139 placing him within the 120–130 general cutoff bracket, top IISERs including Pune, Kolkata and Mohali are within reach; their last-round closing ranks ranged between 1,023 (Pune) and 1,801 (Kolkata) in 2024, translating to expected IAT marks of 125–140 for general candidates. His JEE Advanced rank of 13,975 fits IISc Bangalore’s BSc Physics cutoff of 903–1,000 (General AI quota) and BSc Mathematical Sciences cutoff near 1,095, though female cutoff relaxations slightly wider for general candidates. JEE Main rank (52,330) cannot secure BSc at IISc via JoSAA’s AI quota but JEE Advanced suffices. His 99% in PCM and 86% aggregate meet all eligibility criteria. IISc’s BSc Research programs report 90–95% placement rates over three years in STEM roles, while IISER graduates similarly achieve 85–92% placements in academic and research positions. Recommendation: Prioritize registering for IAT counselling with preferences set to IISER Pune, IISER Kolkata and IISER Mohali, while listing IISc BSc Physics and Mathematics at the top contingent on JEE Advanced rank, ensuring multiple high-probability research-focused admission avenues. All the BEST for the Admission & a Prosperous Future!
