GST Rates Revised: Here’s the full list of what gets cheaper or costlier?

/ Blogs
Blog on Gov

The decision by the GST Council to raise rates on some goods and services while expanding the scope of its coverage will likely worsen the plight of the average person, who is already struggling with high inflation. On July 18, a GST of 18% will be charged on bank chequebooks and loose-leaf checks, while a GST of 12% will be charged on maps, atlases, and globes. Similar to how unbranded but pre-packaged cereals, curd, lassi, buttermilk, and other food items will be removed from the exemption list and brought inside the GST net. Ink for writing, printing, or drawing will also cost more. The decision to rationalise rates was made during the two-day 47th GST Council Meeting, which began on Tuesday in Chandigarh and was presided over by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman. The GST rate on medical devices including intraocular lenses, ostomy and orthopaedic appliances, splints and other fracture appliances, artificial body parts, and other items that are worn, transported, or implanted in the body to make up for a defect or impairment, however, has decreased from 12 to 5%. The GST rate for products and passengers transported by ropeway has been reduced from 18% to 5%, and the rate for renting a truck or goods carriage that includes the cost of gasoline has been reduced from 16% to 6%. Other items with higher GST rates include printing, writing, or drawing ink (12% to 18%), knives with cutting blades, paper knives, pencil sharpeners, spoons, forks, ladles, skimmers, cake-servers, etc. (12% to 18%), power-driven pumps primarily used for handling water, such as centrifugal pumps, deep tube-well turbine pumps, submersible pumps, bicycle pumps, and so on (12 per cent to 18 per cent). The price of “pawan chakki” wet grinders, also known as air-based atta grinders, which are used for cleaning, sorting, and grading seeds, grains, and pulses, as well as other milling and cereal-related machinery, increases from 5% to 18%. Rates for dairy equipment, milking machines, and machines for cleaning, grading, or sorting eggs, fruit, or other agricultural produce and its parts will increase from 12% to 18%. Solar water heater and systems, prepared/finished leather, chamois leather, and composition leathers increase up from 5% to 12%, as do LED lamps, lights, and fixtures, their metal printed circuit boards, drawing, and marking tools. In terms of the services, the rates have been increased for jobs involving the processing of hides, skins, and leather, the production of clay bricks, and contracts for the construction of roads, bridges, trains, metro, effluent treatment plants, crematoriums, and other projects. Additionally, raised are the concessional fees for petroleum, coal bed methane, and electronic waste. Economy class passengers are the only ones exempt from paying for air travel to and from North East states and Bagdogra. Hotel lodging up to Rs 1,000 per day is taxed at 12%, while hospital room rent (excluding ICU) over Rs 5,000 per day per patient is taxed at 5% up to the amount charged for the room, without considering input tax credits. The provision of such services by an individual is the only scenario in which training or coaching in recreational activities connected to the arts, culture, or sports is exempt from tax. The following services are no longer exempt: renting residential space to business entities (registered persons), providing services by cord blood banks for preservation, transportation by rail or vessel of railroad equipment and materials, storage or warehousing of goods subject to tax (such as nuts, spices, copra, jaggery, cotton, etc.), fumigation of agricultural produce in a warehouse, and services by the RBI, IRDA, SEBI, and FSSAI.

In what ways will the new labour laws impact workers: Explained

/ Blogs
ArdorComm blog

The new labour laws, which are scheduled to go into effect on July 1st, will significantly alter the nation’s workplace culture. If the new labour codes are put into place, a number of areas of employment and workplace culture—from working hours to in-hand pay—are anticipated to change. By announcing their impending adoption, the Ministry of Labour and Employment has finalised the provisions under the four labour laws, opening the way for reforms to become a reality. After receiving the President’s assent, the four major codes on wages, industrial relations, social security, and occupational safety, health, and working conditions (OSH) have already been informed. However, the regulations must be notified in order to implement these four codes. Let us look at the laws and the proposed changes: Laws On September 29, 2020, the Center announced four labour codes: Code on Wages, Industrial Relations Code, Social Security Code, and the Code on Occupational Safety, Health, and Working Conditions. These 29 labour laws, which have not changed since Independence, are expected to be replaced. To enforce these laws in their separate jurisdictions, states must notify rules under the four codes. The drafted guidelines for the Code on Wages have only been issued by 23 states and Union Territories. When all states agree to the codes, they will be put into effect. Working hours The proposed new labour laws provide companies the option of having four working days each week rather than five or six. Four days at work do not, however, mean less effort. If the number of working days is decreased, the hours of work will increase. Employees will be required to complete the 48-hour work week. This indicates that they must put in 12 hours every day of work rather than the usual eight. There is no reduction in paid holidays due to the fewer working days. Those working four days would get three paid holidays every week. In hand salary The take-home income is anticipated to decrease under the new laws as Provident Fund (PF) contributions from both the employer and the employee rise. It is mandatory that the PF contribution be equivalent to 50% of gross pay. Leaves eligibility  The number of working days needed to qualify for leave has been lowered from 240 to 180 under the new labour laws. A new employee must work 240 days in accordance with the law before they are qualified to take a leave. The minimum number of days an employee must work to qualify for leave under the new labour laws has been lowered to 180. One day of leave is gained for every 20 days of employment, yet the amount of leave earned does not alter. There will continue to be 30 leaves that can be carried forward. Lay-offs The new industrial relations code would make conducting business easier by allowing businesses with up to 300 employees to proceed with layoffs, retrenchments, and closures without obtaining authorization from the government. According to The Business Standard, all companies with up to 100 employees are currently immune from needing government approval for layoffs, retrenchments, and closures. Work from Home The purpose of the new regulations is to enhance employee welfare. They are familiar with the work-from-home (WFH) concept that was used when the COVID-19 pandemic was in effect. To ensure that the work-life balance is not impacted, companies must have some fundamental WFH policies and practises in place. What is meant by “workers”? Employees who are classified as workers will benefit from the new labour laws. The new laws’ definition of “workers” is similar to that found in the Factories Act. This does not imply, however, that factory-based blue-collar workers are the only ones eligible for the benefits. The service industry is included in the scope of the new labour laws. According to The Economic Times, every individual contributor (a person who is not primarily involved in managerial, administrative, or supervisory roles, with the exception of supervisors, who have a monthly wage cap of Rs 18,000 specified) should be considered a worker under the new labour laws, regardless of the task that is given to them or the compensation they receive.

10 Science based Benefits of Yoga

/ Blogs

Yoga encompasses a wide range of contemplative and self-disciplined activities, including meditation, chanting, mantra, prayer, breath work, ritual, and even selfless action. Despite what modern media and industry would have us believe, yoga is not just about physical poses. The root word “yuj,” which meaning “to yoke” or “to bind,” is where the term “yoga” derives from. The word itself has several connotations, ranging from astronomical conjunction to nuptials, with the notion of connectedness at its core. The physical application of yoga and its poses are known as asana. Even while the scientific study of yoga’s health advantages is still in its early stages, the majority of the available data seems to confirm what practitioners have likely known for thousands of years: yoga is tremendously good for our wellness. Yoga increases strength and flexibility In an effort to determine the worth of yoga in the face of its rising popularity, two of the industry’s main organisations, Yoga Journal and Yoga Alliance, undertook a global survey in 2016. The most popular justification given for doing yoga was to “increase flexibility”. Physical health includes flexibility as a key element. There are numerous yoga types available, with levels of difficulty ranging from high to mild. It has been discovered that even the lowest intensity styles enhance flexibility. Yoga appears to be especially beneficial for enhancing flexibility in adults of age 65 and older. In a 2019 study, it was discovered that yoga helped elderly persons who were experiencing a normal decline in flexibility. Yoga aids with stress reduction 84 percent of American adults, according to recent data from the American Psychological Association, are suffering the effects of chronic stress. Similar is the case in India and across the world as well. So, it makes sense that reducing stress was the second most frequently reported reason given for why individuals practice yoga. Thankfully, research shows that yoga, and particularly asana, is quite effective at lowering stress levels. But keep in mind that yoga is more than just physical exercise. Additionally, proven to greatly reduce tension and ease stress include meditation, breath practice, and auditory rituals like chanting and sound baths. Yoga enhances mental health One of the most prevalent mental health conditions in the world is believed to be major depressive disorder (MDD). Yoga can now be thought of as an efficient alternative treatment for MDD, according to a 2017 meta-analysis of 23 interventions that looked at the impact of yoga-based treatments on depressive symptoms. Yoga therapy with an emphasis on movement as well as breathing exercises have been demonstrated to dramatically lessen depression symptoms. Yoga can relieve inflammation Chronic inflammation is frequently the first sign of sickness. Prolonged inflammation has been associated to heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, Crohn’s disease, and many other illnesses. A review of 15 studies found a consistent finding: yoga, in all its forms, intensities, and durations, decreased the biochemical indicators of inflammation in a range of chronic illnesses. Yoga may help you gain strength Some yoga lessons can be thought of as strength-building exercises even though most people identify yoga with flexibility and stretching. Simply put, it depends on the teacher, method, and class level. Yoga asana is a multimodal kind of exercise as a result. Yoga’s capacity to increase strength has been examined in a variety of scenarios, including those involving children, older persons, and those with breast cancer. Yoga was discovered to be an efficient activity for improving strength across many age groups of healthy individuals in a study done on air force personnel. Yoga might lessen anxiety There are many different types of anxiety disorders, including social anxiety, specific phobias, and generalized anxiety disorder. Sometimes even long-term stress qualifies as an anxiety condition. Numerous studies indicate that yoga asana may be useful as a complementary therapy for anxiety disorders, however some of the researchers want more replicated research before drawing any firm conclusions. Anxiety symptoms have been demonstrably diminished by yoga ‘nidra’, a body scan/guided meditation. Yoga may enhance one’s quality of life For many years, researchers have considered quality of life (QOL) as a crucial indicator of people’s longevity and the possibility that patients may recover from a chronic illness or injury. Relationships, creativity, learning opportunities, health, and material comforts are a few aspects that influence QOL.  A 2019 meta-analysis found that yoga may have a positive impact on patients’ quality of life. Yoga can improve immunity Your immune system suffers when you are under constant stress. You are more prone to sickness when your immunity is weakened. However, as was previously said, yoga is regarded as an alternate stress-reduction strategy with scientific support. Even while the research is still in its early stages, certain studies have discovered a clear connection between practicing yoga regularly over time and having a healthier immune system. This is caused in part by the anti-inflammatory properties of yoga as well as the improvement of cell-mediated immunity. Yoga can better your balance & posture Not only is balance crucial when performing the yoga pose known as Tree Pose while standing on one leg. Additionally, it is necessary for everyday tasks like picking something up off the floor, reaching up to a shelf, and going down stairs. Athletes’ balance and general performance have been found to improve with yoga. Similarly, a review of studies on healthy populations indicates that regular yoga practice may help most people’s balance. However, for other people, falling can have negative consequences. Recent studies indicate that yoga can help older populations’ balance. Before a broad generalization can be made, more studies with sizable sample sizes are required. Yoga poses can help those with brain injuries regain their equilibrium. For older persons, those with ailments who are less mobile or whose balance is an issue, adaptive yoga or chair yoga can be extremely beneficial. Yoga may enhance cardiovascular health A crucial and advantageous component of yoga is pranayama, sometimes known as “yogic breathing.” An analysis of 1,400 papers investigating the overall effects of pranayama was published in the Journal

ArdorComm- Higher Education and EdTech Conclave & Awards #HEETsouth #HEETbengaluru

/ Blogs

We are in the midst of a significant social and economic transformation, fuelled by incredible developments in automation and artificial intelligence, as well as unprecedented data and computation access. These technologies have an impact on practically every sector of our economy, including healthcare, banking, transportation, energy, manufacturing, and many other occupations. These advancements, like earlier industrial revolutions, have the potential to deliver enormous advantages to society and, in the long term, contribute to massive prosperity. Innovations will also change the future of labour, increase skill bias from previous decades, and contribute to a widening gap between the best and the least educated in society. To make the learners adaptable and aligned to the industry needs, it is the need of the hour to re-imagine the higher education in the 21st century workplace by focusing on expanding the boundaries of education, skill and employability. ArdorComm Media Group, as one of India’s fastest-growing media companies, is here to explore the prospects of educational innovation, future trends, and the existing scenario in order to stimulate important discussions among significant education, technology, and government stakeholders. Chandan Anand, Founder, CEO & Group Editor of ArdorComm Media says, “While some professions will be mechanised and others will be drastically altered as a result of technological advancements, we equally realise that new markets, sectors, and employment will emerge, some of which we cannot possibly envision today. Individuals at all stages of their careers should view learning as a lifetime endeavour in today’s fast-paced industry. We need to know what changes should higher education and its stakeholders do to ensure that the workforce has the core competencies and abilities it needs today and in the future?” To address these issues and discuss the desideratum in the Higher education sector, ArdorComm Media, is coming up with the ‘HIGHER EDUCATION and EDTECH CONCLAVE & AWARDS 2022’ #HEETsouth #HEETbengaluru as a ‘PHYSICAL EVENT’ in Bengaluru on 15th July 2022. As new sectors emerge and existing ones expand and collapse dramatically, the skills required to keep up are changing at a faster rate than ever before. Educators and higher education administrators must approach skill competency with a growth mindset that will assist students throughout their careers and in the global knowledge-based economy. There is an apparent need to educate the next generation about rising digital capabilities and how to create, build, and properly use technology. At the same time, students in the 21st century must learn how to approach challenges from several viewpoints, foster and use creativity, communicate effectively, and use critical thinking. These non-automatable “human” abilities are vital in a future of work that is continually evolving, and their value will only increase as automation becomes more prevalent. About the event: The ‘ArdorComm – Higher Education and Edtech Conclave & Awards 2022’ #HEETsouth #HEETbengaluru will grace the floor on 15th July 2022 in Bengaluru, Karnataka. The Summit’s theme will focus on “Re-imagining Higher Education in 21st Century Workplace: Expanding boundaries of Education, Skill and Employability.” The 5 States of South India, Karnataka, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Kerala are known for their breathtaking and mesmerizing scenic beauty, vibrant and rich tradition & culture.
