I am retired from company last year at age of 62. I have not withdrawn my pf amount as i dont need it now.Plus I am getting good interest rate without tax. Till what time can i keep this amount in pf

Ans: After cessation of employment at 62, the account will be classified as an "inoperative account." While it will continue to earn interest, it will be taxable. It's advisable to consider withdrawing or transferring the amount to a safer investment option before the tax implications kick in.

Hi Sir, I am tensed as JEE Main Examination is approaching and i am scared that i would only be able to score 100/300 at best. Please suggest me some good regional colleges. I am female single girl child in Delhi. Engineering was never my first priority yet I chose it because it seemed a safe option. I would also try and give CUET. One more concern is that my 5th subject in class 12 is GST or Geospatial Technology. Is there any scope for this subject through which I can enter a decent college. I dont want to spend my parents money..Please help. I am distressed
Ans: Hello Shaamhavi
First I would like to say that without any fear in mind and a predetermined score, you appear for JEE 2025 in 1st session. To improve your score/performance, you have 2nd attempt also.
You said, engineering was never your 1st priority. Then, why not have discussed this fact with your parents or parents have forced you to go for engineering? It is not clear from your question. How you can say, it is a safe option is also not clear.
If you are scared about JEE preparation, then it would be better to try CUET. GST i.e. Geospatial Technology is a good subject and there is scope in this field.
Now, I would like to suggest you: (1) Focus more on JEE preparation or CUET (2) Try to excel in GST subject (3) Try to score more and more in the respective examinations on a priority basis, (4) No need to take the stress about parents money as the expenses are already done on your classes + college tuition fees, etc. (5) Leave up all other aspects of Regional College availability, descent college in GST field etc. (6) For all your problems, only one answer: SCORE HIGH IN THE EXAMIANTIONS IN WHICH YOU ARE APPEARING.

If satisfied, please like and follow me.
If dissatisfied with the reply, please ask again without hesitation.
Thanks.
