Indian Withholding Tax Obligations: How Do You Get it Right? And What Happens if You Don't?
9 December 2014
Host: Neeru Ahuja
Presenters: Enwright DeSales and Pritin Kumar
The Tax Department in India is recently placing more emphasis on revenue generation through withholding tax, as withholding tax collection accounts for almost 40% of total collection of direct taxes. A Centralised Processing Cell for withholding tax has been set up, and monitoring is being automated. Non-compliance with the withholding tax provisions is a double whammy as it not only encompasses recovery of tax, interest, and penalty, but also the corresponding expenditure is not tax deductible in the hands of the payer. What do you need to know about the major developments with regard to withholding taxes? We'll discuss:
- Recent changes in law.
- How corporate disallowances are triggered.
- Penalties and prosecution.
- Issues being faced by corporates and how to handle them practically.
- Actions being taken by the Tax Department.
Understand recent changes in this important area and what they mean to you.

Profit Split Analysis and the Role of Intangibles, Capital, and Risk
18 September 2014
Host: Arindam Mitra
Presenters: Jun Sawada and Jacques Van Rhyn
The profit split method is receiving renewed attention as tax authorities look to apply this method in innovative ways to challenge existing transfer pricing methodologies.

I don't understand this statement. You have a NR permit from NH but can't carry there? This makes no sense. The primary purpose of having a NR permit is so NRs CAN carry in that state. Reciprocity has nothing to do with it. Reciprocity allows someone from state A to carry in state B without having a permit from state B. One has nothing to do with the other.
Connecticut does not recognize any state's permit, but anyone who holds a valid carry permit from another state can get a NR permit to carry here.

LA law said they would recognize any state's permit if that state recognized theirs. Evidently, since FL does not recognize a non-resident LA permit (if there is such a thing) then LA won't recognize a FL non-resident permit. Maybe there's some twisted logic here that only bureaucrats can fathom. Maybe it's the money, like in CO. In any event, I'm hoping that, in the future, more states will recognize my resident permit, so I don't have to go shopping all over the country.

Does anyone know the La bill number?
Governor Jindal has always touted himself as being very pro gun. It will be interesting to see if he moves to change the action of his subordinate.
A friend called LSP and the reasoning given to him was they revoked a man's LA permit but supposedly he could carry with his FL nonresident. This seems lame based on the revised statute R.S. 40:1379.3 part T (2) which says
(2) A nonresident concealed handgun permit issued by another state is invalid in the state of Louisiana if issued to an individual who as a resident of this state has been denied a handgun permit or has been issued a handgun permit which is under revocation or suspension.
Real reason...who knows.
Thats the thing, this change is not the result of a passed & signed bill, to the best of our knowledge. Supposedly its an administrative decision by the Louisiana State Police. And per R.S. 40:1379.3(T)(1), the statute that I cited in my previous post, the State Police are not granted any delegated authority to pick-and-choose which out-of-state licenses will be recognized within Louisiana.
So in short, it would appear that this pronouncement by the Louisiana State Police is invalid, if not illegal.
Here's the document the LSP is hanging their hat on. I tried calling the AG, but couldn't get through.
Called the LA AG and was told to call LSP. Callled them and the woman on the phone said the Colonel "has the right to change any law as he sees fit". Apparently the Colonel and the Sergeant were, at the time, in discussions with the legal department and were being inundated with calls. Hmmmmm. I then called the Governor's office, but they only took my name and phone number with a promise to get back to me. Next I called US Congressman Steve Scalise and emailed his assistant the letter above - was assured Rep Scalise is very adamant about 2nd Amendment rights. Welp, we'll see what happens.
Also sent emails with the letter to State Senator Martiny and a State Rep.
Here's a copy of the RS I found:
R.S. 40:1379.3 part T (1) which says
... A current and valid concealed handgun permit issued by another state shall be deemed to be valid within this state if a current and valid concealed handgun permit issued by Louisiana is valid in those states. An out-of-state permit holder carrying a concealed handgun pursuant to this Paragraph is bound by the laws of this state regarding carrying a concealed handgun pursuant to a permit issued in accordance with this Section.
and (2) which says:
The deputy secretary of public safety services shall also have the authority to enter into reciprocity agreements with other states so that full-time active peace officers commissioned in another state shall have the same authority as a person issued a concealed handgun permit pursuant to this Section to carry a concealed handgun while in this state, regardless of whether or not they are in the official discharge of their duties, and full-time active law enforcement officers commissioned in this state shall have the authority to carry a concealed handgun in those states whether or not they are in the official discharge of their duties. An out-of-state law enforcement officer carrying a concealed handgun pursuant to this Paragraph is bound by the laws of this state regarding carrying a concealed handgun pursuant to a permit issued in accordance with this Section.
I am not a lawyer, but part 2 seems to only give Col. Edmonson authority regarding reciprocity agreements in regards to full-time peace officers and part 1 applies to carry permit holders in general - regardless of whether the permit is a resident or non-resident permit.

Miami-Dade children who lost lives to random violence remembered
After a week in which three people were killed and seven were injured by gunfire in Liberty City, more than 150 people gathered Tuesday in a Liberty City park to honor Sherdavia Jenkins and other Miami-Dade County children who have been killed by random violence.
The event, called "Children to be Remembered," has been held at Sherdavia Jenkins Peace Park every year on the anniversary of the date that Jenkins was caught in the crossfire of a gunfight between two men.
Jenkins was 9 at the time of the shooting, which happened on July 1, 2006 at a Liberty City housing project.
Jenkins was playing with a doll near the porch of her house. The shooters were 50 yards away.
Both defendants were convicted; Damon Darling was sentenced to 50 years, and Leroy Larose to seven years.

The Star has a Story on that coin-flip-for-jobs story from Canada we ran last month.
Tails won it. The library held a coin toss yesterday — in accordance with a union agreement — to determine which one of 2 employees would get bumped into a more junior position. The winner says:
\"I feel so sick about it. It\'s not fair to do this to anybody, Deciding between two people on this basis, it should not happen. I\'m equally shattered for her.\"
Stories on the CIPA trials won\'t be hard to find, but this one highlights the librarians in action, so it might be worth mentioning. The article is perhaps most interesting becasue it begins with, \"Three soft-spoken, gray-haired librarians...\"I don\'t know any librarians that are soft-spoken. Do you?
The NY Times has picked up on the Nixon Library Story, saying this is the only one not operated by the federal government or filled with professional archivists, it is also the only one that does not even house all its president\'s papers, they remain near Washington, beyond the library\'s control, thanks to the way he left office.
Someone passed along This One with a list of Snappy comebacks, and longer answers to the ol\' question "Why do we need a teacher librarian or a school library when we have the Internet?"
THIS WINDOW CLOSED - or, Six Reasons The Service Sector Hates You is a response to This One, Lileks at the library.
(1) Believe that rules don't apply to you
(2) Treat the establishment as if you owned it.
(3) Lie through your teeth
(4) Show up .00002 seconds before closing and expect an entire day\'s service
(5) Expect favors
(6) Rip your ludicrously-underpaid service prole a new one about things he/she
can\'t change
He also adds this important tip:
the people who work at counters or circulation desks do not
make policy.

The Independent has The 10 leading librarians in Britain, as chosen by their peers.
\"My advice to anyone starting out in this profession is to have the self-confidence to move outside your particular domain. Always push further into the wider business of your institution, whether it\'s a local authority, company or university. Sometimes it feels uncomfortable but it is important.\"
In my never ending quest to reinforce every possible librarian stereotype, I give you Love of books leads to career as librarian. After all, that is why we all became librarians right?
Unfortunatly she\'s not a little old lady with a shawl, and her hair in a bun, but she does wear glasses!
Nina McLaughlin writes \"Here is an article titled \"Library science degree: file that under 'stupid'\" that I can only hope is a joke. After all, we can take a joke.... But this writer, a UCLA student in Molecular Biology, seems to be serious when saying: \"I don\'t understand why these overzealous school marms need to attend a professional school, and thus be equated with scientists, doctors and lawyers. I don\'t even think you need a GED to successfully put books on shelves. Hell, a properly trained monkey with a fancy hat could probably do that.\" The article, in the \"Viewpoint\" (i.e. Opinion) section of the UCLA Daily Bruin goes on to say \"Library science? Science? There is not a single scientific thing about library science. Putting on a silly puppet show for kids doesn\'t exactly merit a Nobel Prize.\" I kept re-reading it, hoping it was some sort of a satire that I just wasn\'t getting.... But I think they REALLY feel this way. Arrrggghhh!

Sunshine Recycling providing roll-off containers, hauling and recycling services.
Orlando, Florida-based container rental company Sunshine Recycling is currently providing both 20-yard and 30-yard construction roll-off containers on the site of a new apartment community located at 7001 Palm Parkway in Orlando. Sunshine Recycling is hauling metal and concrete to be recycled, and is also providing portable restrooms and holding tanks for the construction trailers. Sunshine Recycling is working with general contractors Altman Contractors Inc. on the 334-unit rental development known as Altis at Sand Lake. The apartment community will feature a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments. The 30-cubic-yard containers are used to collect and haul standard construction debris such as drywall or sheet rock, wood, paper, plastics and other scraps. The smaller 20-cubic-yard container is specifically designed and intended for the collection and hauling of bulky, heavy and large debris; this sized Dumpster is on-site to collect concrete. Metals are recycled to produce other metal products and concrete can be recycled to create asphalt, new concrete or gravel. It also has landscaping applications and can be used to stop erosion. "As a LEED-certified waste management company, we are capable of providing superior recycling and hauling services whether or not the job has LEED requirements," says Chuck Herb, owner of Sunshine Recycling. "It's important to us as a company to support environmental initiatives and work with builders to recycle as much debris as possible. We can typically recycle 98 percent or more of the debris collected."

FDA Eases Access to Acne Drug
Women seeking an acne medicine that can cause severe birth defects may find it a little easier to fill their prescription: The government announced some changes Wednesday designed to ease access to the troublesome drug.
A program called iPledge was designed to ensure that every user of Accutane or its generic competitors—and every doctor who prescribes it and every pharmacy that sells it—follows strict rules to make sure that women don't get pregnant while on the drug. Among those rules are month-by-month prescriptions based on passing pregnancy tests.
But last summer, the Food and Drug Administration heard evidence that iPledge hasn't ended the problem: There were 122 pregnancies in the program's first year and another 37 in the four months since. Another 19 pregnancies occurred in women who managed to get the drug despite never enrolling in iPledge.
Still, in October the FDA agreed to a few changes to the program, and announced Wednesday that iPledge is now implementing these changes:
* Women of childbearing age who don't fill a prescription within seven days of a pregnancy test will be allowed to get another test and then fill the prescription—with the exception of the initial prescription. Until now, those who didn't act within seven days were frozen out of the program for the next 23 days.
* Those women will have to fill the prescription within seven days of a pregnancy test rather than within seven days of first seeing their doctor.

Face to Face Subject, Tracy Brennan, Shares Her Skin Care Secrets
By Abby Penning
Learn the methods this month's Face to Face subject uses to overcome her skin difficulities.
Low Glycemic Diet Can Help Decrease Acne
The findings from a new study suggest another reason why diets that contain low glycemic loads may be of benefit. Not only can they improve insulin sensitivity, this type of diet also appears to clear up acne as well.
Data from earlier studies suggest that dietary factors such as the glycemic load are involved in the pathogenesis of acne. Therefore, changes in diet could impact symptoms of this common skin disease, the researches hypothesize.
Foods that produce a high glycemic load—or high levels of blood glucose—such as white bread and potatoes tend to cause a rapid surge in blood sugar. Conversely, other carbs, such as high-fiber cereals or beans, create a more gradual change and are considered to have a low glycemic index.
Dr. Robyn N. Smith, from the RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, and colleagues assessed acne symptoms in 43 male patients, between 15 and 25 years, who were randomly assigned to a low glycemic load diet or a normal diet for 12 weeks. The intervention diet consisted of 25% energy from protein and 45% from low-glycemic-index carbohydrates.
The findings are published in the July issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
The low-glycemic diet was associated with a significant reduce in total acne compared with the normal diet. In addition, the low-glycemic diet produced significantly greater reductions in body weight and body mass and a greater increase in insulin sensitivity. Insulin resistance is a condition in which the body's cells become insensitive to the effects of insulin, so the body's response to a normal amount of insulin is reduced. As a result, higher amounts of insulin are needed for this hormone to work in the body.
Smith and her associates point out that this study is the first randomized controlled trial to examine the influence the effects of glycemic load on acne.
"Although we could not isolate the effect of the low glycemic load diet from that of weight loss," they add, the findings support the hypothesis of a relationship between acne and high insulin levels.

He's backed out of each and every opportunity to defend his Gifted Belt.. instead he choses to fight 42 year old smaller Geezers like Mosely, shot fighters and Skinny 140lbers… Atleast Rosado has fought guys his true size who were much bigger threats then the Bums Canelo has been spoon fed… Rosado has earned his shot at bigger and better fights.. fighting a no name guys when he can fight for another belt and take on a named known fighter is the smart move at this point..

Posted October 26, 2012 10:08 pmte tumbowhen Williams, Kirkland, Cotto, and Ortiz fell through, Canelo didn't back out of his scheduled bout v. the presumably live underdog Lopez to to wait for the outcome of Martinez v. Junior or Mayweather v. whoever. besides, Rosado is only a peripheral contender who should remain at least as active as a younger and undefeated phenom like Alvarez, i.e., No Comparison.

PEEJI would have to agree with that Posted October 26, 2012 5:40 pmte tumboi don't get it? where does a peripheral contender get the balls to simply back out of a scheduled bout by citing the results of a future bout involving a potential opponent? IMO, Rosado has just assed himself out of serious consideration for ANY title-bout and is instead laying the groundwork for his Sixth (6) loss. Posted October 26, 2012 3:38 pm |

CNN Announces Primetime Lineup, New Shows With Mike Rowe, Lisa Ling, John Walsh
The 9 p.m. hour will move away from talk, while CNN will debut a one-hour news program at 10 p.m.
CNN on Thursday announced a new primetime schedule along with new shows featuring Mike Rowe, Lisa Ling and John Walsh.
At its upfront presentation in New York, the network also will unveil a new series titled The Jesus Code. The series join previously announced series from Anthony Bourdain and Morgan Spurlock, both of which have been renewed, CNN said Thursday.
STORY: What CNN Sacrificed for Missing-Plane Ratings
Meanwhile, the new primetime lineup will begin with Erin Burnett Outfront at 7 p.m. ET, followed by Anderson Cooper 360 at 8 p.m. ET. The 9 p.m. ET hour will be the new home of CNN's original series, CNN Films and the network's in-house produced documentaries like Dr. Sanjay Gupta's Weed and Anderson Cooper's The Survivor Diaries. That marks a change for the time slot from its previous focus of talk; Piers Morgan's talk show ran in the hour before its recent cancellation.
At 10 p.m. ET CNN will debut a one-hour news program called CNN Tonight, a live hour of the day's biggest stories, with rotating hosts anchoring the program.
"The best journalism is, at its core, great storytelling," CNN Worldwide president Jeff Zucker said. "We are so pleased to welcome some of the finest storytellers in the business to CNN, to join the award-winning team of world-class journalists and storytellers who have made CNN the home to this kind of quality programming for more than 30 years. The seamless integration of original series and live news coverage, which has been on display the last two months, is the foundation of our new primetime lineup."
The new series are:
-- Somebody's Gotta Do It, which finds Rowe (Dirty Jobs) visiting unique individuals and joining them in their respective undertakings, paying tribute to innovators, do-gooders, entrepreneurs, collectors and fanatics. This show is "about passion, purpose, and occasionally, hobbies that get a little out of hand." (Produced by Pilgrim Studios)
-- Ling's (Our America With Lisa Ling) new documentary series finds her traveling to "far corners of America, immersing herself in subcultures that are unusual, bizarre and sometimes dangerous." Each episode examines an alternative sect of everyday life and aims to provide viewers with an inside look at some of America's most unconventional segments of society. (Produced by part2pictures)
-- The Hunt With John Walsh, a documentary-style, nonfiction program hosted by Walsh (America's Most Wanted) will tell stories of ongoing international criminal investigations in which the suspect is a fugitive at large. It will feature interviews with victims, loved ones and law enforcement and the exploration of new leads as it provides the viewing public with information to aid in the fugitive's apprehension. (Produced by Zero Point Zero Productions)
STORY: Piers Morgan Ends CNN Run With Gun Control Plea
-- The Jesus Code, which explores the evidence of Jesus' existence by questioning the authenticity of sacred relics using forensics, biblical archeology and a look at forgery in history. (Produced by Nutopia Productions)
Meanwhile, CNN also said The Sixties, the 10-part original series from Playtone and producers Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman, will debut in May.
Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown has been picked up for an additional four cycles in 2015 and 2016, while Morgan Spurlock: Inside Man has been renewed for another cycle in 2015.
CNN has also entered into a development deal with the producers of Chicagoland to tell the story of another American city.
All of the original series, plus a weekly documentary from CNN's in-house documentary unit, will air at 9 p.m. ET beginning this summer.

Sooo cool!
i played the shit out of DKC, can't wait to make King K. Rool my bitch once again.
" I never really gave a damn about this game, but it's interesting that the graphics don't seem to be any better than when it originally came out. I guess that was intentional...? "You sir are blind. It looks fantastic.
" Retro Studios is the new (old) Rare. Yay. "Dude. Prophetic. You're so right. Retro is awesome!
Remixes of the original Donkey Kong Country music! The sunset silhouette also looks fantastic.
Hope they package with optional Kong in Concert support, if only for Cry of the Chasmal Critter Chain
oh ... wait.
is it going to be another collect-a-lot-to-progress game with a lot of backtracking and you having to replay each level at least once per character?
Could still be an awesome game, but wasn't that the main criticism against Rare's mid-to-late-90's efforts into platform games?
i completely forgot how awesome DKC was. most of my childhood was split between it and Turtles in Time. god i cannot wait.

wonder what type of product they are talking bout
Posted by Steve on January 20, 2004 at 4:27 PM (CST)
Who are these people? I tried to google them and I get nothing. I know I'm retarded, but c'mon that article doesn't give much info or even point to the company web site.
Posted by Hedonist on January 20, 2004 at 4:30 PM (CST)
yeah. The closest thing I got was www.avoutfitters.com but I dont think that its them
Posted by Andy on January 20, 2004 at 4:39 PM (CST)
has anyone recieved an email back from them… if so how long after did it arrive… 5 min? 1 hour?
Posted by steve on January 20, 2004 at 4:46 PM (CST)
I'd guess that this is a scam. Somehow they're finding some information about you that they can either sell, or use in identity fraud of some sort.
Posted by Caleb on January 20, 2004 at 4:49 PM (CST)
ya dennis where did you get this? are they legit?
Posted by aswimmer94563 on January 20, 2004 at 4:51 PM (CST)
no email yet but I will keep you guys updated
Posted by Andy on January 20, 2004 at 4:53 PM (CST)
I know this is a little off topic, but any suggestions for great cases?
Posted by Steve on January 20, 2004 at 4:56 PM (CST)
Are they the same people as Digital Life Outfitters (DLO)? These peeps do sell a bunch of iPod accessories. I just emailed the author of the article to try and find out what the deal is here. It would seem strange that the owner/publisher/webster would post this article to aid in some sort of scam.
Posted by Hedonist on January 20, 2004 at 4:57 PM (CST)
contour showcase is good and so is the iSheild2 but its only good for the 10/15/20
Posted by Andy on January 20, 2004 at 4:58 PM (CST)
How can they claim to be "a leading provider of audio products for the apple iPod" when they don't appear to have any existing products for the iPod. Scam if you ask me…or just very bad marketing.
Posted by osd on January 20, 2004 at 5:17 PM (CST)
Hmmm. Hard to tell with so little information
Posted by Mijman2 on January 20, 2004 at 5:25 PM (CST)
But maybe they are making like some big opening and expect to be the "leading provider of Audio products for the Apple iPod"...
Hope they are a real company, and we get to beta test some awesome product
Posted by Mijman2 on January 20, 2004 at 5:27 PM (CST)
Okay, perhaps it's not a clue, but the same e-mail address mentioned in this post was the source for the Usenet post found here advertising a security services sales rep job in Utah.
Posted by Sparkey on January 20, 2004 at 5:31 PM (CST)
This was a Press Release sent to iPodlounge. I have no idea what the product is. I spoke with Mr. Bernstein on the phone and yes, it's a legitimate request for feedback on a new iPod product. See his comments below.
Posted by Dennis Lloyd in Irvine, CA on January 20, 2004 at 5:34 PM (CST)
This is legitamate. We are developing a new product and will be sending a questionaire out in the next few days. As with all good products, we believe it should be based on customer feedback and not the single idea of a few people. We want to make sure this product meets your needs and your feedback is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your interest.
The Web site is under development and will be launched shortly.
Charlie Bernstein
Audio Outfitters.
Posted by Charlie Bernstein on January 20, 2004 at 5:59 PM (CST)
Well, we all got an answer. It's pretty cool to have settled this issue in less than 2 hours of posts. I am very curious to see what happens next.
Posted by Hedonist on January 20, 2004 at 6:03 PM (CST)
just because some guy says it's legitimate doesn't make it so. "a leading provider of audio products" and "a leading provider of Audio products for the Apple iPod" wouldn't have a website just now under development, would they? And wouldn't Charlie Bernstein have an email address with "audiooutfitters.com" or something, since Audio Outfitters is obviously such a tech savvy company (see above quotes)? All I'm saying is, be careful…
Posted by ck on January 20, 2004 at 6:14 PM (CST)
i dont think that they would post a false statement, stated dirrectly by the person in charge of Audio Outfitters…
Posted by Mijman2 on January 20, 2004 at 6:40 PM (CST)

Hangar 3
Greetings All!!
Here is the rest of my hangar. Here first is what I am presently working on. A. & B. are a Great Planes Electro-Streak bare bones that I've been building from a kit for my buddy thedonn. He has no patience for sticks & planks. The longer wing was his idea 'cause he wanted this plane to slow down plus act more like a sailplane. C. is a Fokker D-VII which is an ARF. Typically, I don't do ARFs. This one was too good of a deal to pass up.
Next are the rest of my R/C aircraft. D.& E. are my Zagi. I like to have a distinctive pattern between the top and bottom of my models. I lost a foam Cessna ARF in 1986 because I couldnt tell if it was banking toward or away from me. F. is a Cox Double Eagle. It has a .049 engine that is mounted on a pod that attaches to the top of the wing. Im thinking of fiberglassing it and converting to electric power. G. is my Eflite Blade CX-2. H., I. & J. are my Sig Kadet LT-40 that I built from a kit. Yes, I have to repair the crash damage. But what is interesting is how it went down. I had my friend on the buddy box and he was doing just fine. To prove a point, I took over & got 4 mistakes high. I rolled over and flew inverted to prove that its possible to do so with a high winged trainer. I split-essed out, got the plane level & returned control to my friend. Before I had a chance to tell him to get 4 mistakes high he rolled and pulled full up. All I could do was take over & chop the throttle before it hit! We later measured that the hole in the ground from the engine was more than 6 deep! Note that the fuse is only damaged from the fisrt cabin former forward. The impact sent the main LG wheels through the wing!
K. is my work area and wing rack, L. is my Dave Brown Simstar contoller and Saitek X-45 joystick & M. is above my monitor.
Last are pics of my non-flying scale models. I have been building these since I can remember. N. is a Tomcat in 70s colors, O. is a Stealth Fighter both in 1/32 scale. P are a B-25 and an unfinished A-20 in 1/48 scale. The next three planes were damaged by one of our ferrets who broke out of his cage and climbed up to the bookshelf. Q. was in a hundred pieces but rebuilt : Tommy Maguires P-38 Pudgy, R. & S. are a Me 262 and a Sopwith Camel. The fromer 3 are all 1/32 scale. T. is an XP-54 Swoose Goose resin kit from a limited run. 1/48th scale. Some day I intend on making my own plans and building a flying model of it from scratch. U,V & W are kits on my shelf waiting to be assembled.
Thats it! Youve seen everything I have relating to flying and model aircraft. Ill be adding more to this blog as I repair things and do new projects.

The wooden sailplane looks very similar to a Metrick RC-29 sailplane that I had, half built and then shelved.

I fly at the SPMRC field in Ham Lake. The Grassfield club is closer to you being at the northwest corner of 169 and 610. I recently have been bitten by the rotary wing bug and fly my Blade 400 in my back yard.
My first model planes were scale static plastic ones and I continue to build them occasionally. The P -38 is a Revell kit. Several R/C manufacturers make P-38 kits and ARFs.
