Start E-Filing with Cleartax

Have you filed your tax return? Government of India has extended the last date to file your return till August 31. So if you haven't registered your taxes yet, you have about a week to do so.

Being a novice when it comes to filing taxes, I searched for an online tax filing website to help me with filing my tax return, which should be easy, quick, and free of cost. I went through several online-based companies which claimed free filing of the tax return. However, most of them offer only primary return with a single source of income for free. If you have capital gains from a mutual fund or other sources of income, you have to subscribe to their paid version! For a lot majority of ordinary people, equity shares are traded in a minimal quantity. In most cases, the subscription cost to file the tax return does not even cover up their earnings!

That's when I discovered clear tax. Cleartax allows you to scan your Form 16 or you can also opt for entering the details manually like I did. Further, it will enable you to enter your trade details, income from other sources, and calculates your refund amount more accurately, all for free of cost. Keep all the necessary documents besides you,  answer a few simple questionnaires neatly prepared by clear tax experts and follow the steps to claim your refund.

In most cases, as happened with many of my colleagues and friends, you will be surprised to find that you are entitled to a handsome refund! So what are you waiting for? Go to cleartax and Start E-Filing before the due date.

Note: Even if the Income Tax department does not owe you any refund, it is still your responsibility to file your tax return on time.

I had reached level 3 in StepSetGo , and my average earnings per day have touched 15 SSG, including the extra reward coins . My coin balance has crossed 300 SSG in about three weeks since I installed the app. It calls for a rejoice, right? Even I thought so before things turned turtle. My phone fell accidentally on a rough patch, and the impact was a damaged screen. I switched over to an alternate phone while mine was taken to the service center, and tried logging in to the app with my credentials. But the app won't let me in! After trying to get in a couple of times, I shot a mail to StepSetGo customer support but could get their response only after two days. Did they solve the issue by then? NO. The support personnel replied to my ticket asking if things got sorted out on its own! After emailing them the screenshot with the error message, I heard from them again only after two days, asking the same question. After four days, the app on my new phone finally allowed...

Should I buy more gold?

"Gold price continues to increase. Should I buy more gold?" This is a common question lingering on many of our minds. Sensex is not doing great. Parle G and more companies are considering to lay off their employees in thousands. The automobile sector is struggling with sales. If you open the newspaper, there is only negativity in all industries. There is no hope even for market experts. It is as if someone had turned the clock back to 2008 when the last recession began. It only makes sense for someone to invest in gold now, for only the bullion value keeps increasing. Should I buy more gold? The answer is Yes and No. Yes, if you want to buy gold.
