Quote by Mr. Prithviraj Kothari, Managing Director of RiddiSiddhi Bullions Limited (RSBL)

Given the proximity of the national elections this year, we expect that the 2024 budget will be populist and people-friendly. The emphasis will continue on improving infrastructure, Make in India, electric vehicles, and power generation. We anticipate and hope that the government would reduce duties on gold imports, rationalise pricing, and therefore contribute to the creation of a level playing field between the regular and grey markets.

Ref I Quote by Kumarmanglam Vijay, Partner, J Sagar Associates on Newly launch platform for “Transparent Taxation–Honoring the Honest” by Hon Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi

“Proposed reforms launched by the Prime Minister to simplify assessment and appellate process coupled with an initiative to provide pre-filled return forms to taxpayers are steps towards making the process technology-driven and easy to comply for a common person. Government has rightly increased the thresholds for appeals to be filed by the Revenue to reduce litigations. These steps may significantly improve the direct tax to GDP ratio in going forward after reforms are fully implemented.” by Kumarmanglam Vijay, Partner, J Sagar Associates

Quote- Organ Donation Day (13 August) Dr Rajiv Kumar, M.Ch – Urology & Renal Transplant & Dr Deepak Dewan, MD, DM- Nephrology, Director of Renal Sciences, Regency Superspeciality Hospital

A person who is living with a loved one who has contracted COVID-19 is at risk of also becoming infected in the absence of proper precautions. This is especially true for post-transplant patients. People with a kidney transplant should consult with the doctor to find out what additional precautions should be taken by them and their caregivers. This might include additional hand washing/sanitizing, face coverings, or other measures. Immunosuppressive medications may place transplant recipients at higher risk for contracting COVID-19 and more so with a possibility of severe disease with increased morbidity & probably mortality, but it’s important to continue taking all medications as prescribed unless a physician suggests otherwise. However, the risk of acquiring COVID-19 from organ donation is low. Donors are screened for COVID-19 symptoms and exposure history and are also tested by RT-PCR. Living donors who have been to high-risk areas or exposed to someone diagnosed or being evaluated for COVID-19 infection are generally being asked to postpone donation for 14 to 28 days after returning and are tested prior to donation. Transplants should not be postponed in individuals who require it on an urgent basis due to compelling health indications.

Quote on IRDA circular on the issuance of electronic policies – On behalf of Anil PM, Head – Legal and Compliance, Bajaj Allianz Life

“The decision to issue electronic policies without having to also send the physical policy document is a welcome move, considering the current situation which poses quite a challenge for physical policy despatch. This is in fact an opportune time to make the policy issuance process digital. It will enable the industry to facilitate the timely issuance of insurance policies to the customers and will help customers start their life cover on time.”
