What are the tax implications and other loads if I sell my Equity Small Cap MF units after a month?

Ans: Hi Joy,

Congratulations on choosing BAMS as your career path!

Since the pandemic, many candidates have been increasingly drawn to the Indian system of medicine. It's important for her to learn about VPK principles. Without a solid understanding of VPK principles, it can be challenging to practice effectively in this field. Additionally, many herbal and Ayurvedic drugs are not widely recognized; if she conducts research on these, she could truly excel in her career.

**Opportunities include:**

- **General Practice:** Positions in government hospitals and private clinics.
- **Regulatory Roles:** Working as a drug inspector for Indian medicines.
- **Industry Positions:** Opportunities as an entrepreneur or in herbal formulation industries and clinical trials.

To enter the AYUSH department or pharmaceutical companies, she should develop competency and knowledge of herbs as they relate to clinical trials and manufacturing.

She can also engage in research to develop new Ayurvedic formulations. If her formulation proves to be groundbreaking, there’s a possibility to apply for an award from the central government.

Encourage her to stay focused and committed to honing her skills and expertise in Ayurveda.
