before you jump to conclusions about someone, stop, sit down & make a list of person's best qualities.

When Aditya Birla was incharge of Hindalco, one of his senior executives made a blunder that costed the company over Rs. 10 Crores. Several top executives thought Aditya Birla would come down heavily on this guy and probably fire him from job. But he didn't.. Before he called the man in, he sat down, took a notepad and wrote across the top of it: 'Points in favor of this man'​. Then he listed the man's strengths, including how he'd once helped the company make the right decision and earn them millions of dollars. One of the senior executives who witnessed this AB's philosophy, later said, 'Whenever I am tempted to rip into someone, I force myself to sit down and compile a list of the good qualities they have. By the time I have finished, I have the right perspective. And best of all, my anger is under control. I can't tell you how many times this habit has prevented me from committing one of life's costliest mistakes-losing my temper. I recommend it to anyone who deals with people regularly. So before you jump to conclusions about someone, stop, sit down & make a list of person's best qualities. If you do... you may come to a different conclusion. One thing is for sure, you'll approach the person with the right attitude.. and may be won't say things you might later regret !!'

What will cost more and what will be cheaper for you due to GST? Here's the list

With the passage of the GST Bills in the Lok Sabha last week, India's biggest tax reform - Goods & Services Tax (GST), is all set to see the light of day soon. Touted as a reform which would reduce business transaction costs by creating a single seamless nationwide market, GST is expected to provide the much required tonic for economic growth.

With prospects of GST increasing the GDP by 2 percent, the momentous legislation, atleast for the short term, may emerge as a mixed bag for the common man. While most services may turn out to be more expensive, it may be a jumble for goods.

While in the long-term, GST should have quite a favourable impact on most sectors in the Indian economy, the short-term impact, as in the case of most reforms, may be limited. Basis the GST implementation experience in most countries, India may witness an inflationary impact during the transition phase, which should fade away with the legislation sinking in and operationalizing of measures like anti-profiteering.
Here is a look, at the expected immediate impact of GST on the common man's pocket:

These services are likely to become more expensive
A commoner should, at least till the time the service industries do not pass on the benefit of increased credits, budget for some increased pocket pricking on some necessary services like:
Mobile bills
Renewal premium for life insurance policies
Banking and investment management services
Basic luxuries for a common man like WIFI and DTH services, online booking of tickets may become costlier as well.

Prices of these essential services also likely to rise
Also, in the backdrop of quite a bit of current exemptions subsiding, various essential services may cost an arm and a leg under the GST regime. For example, where the current exemptions are discontinued:
Residential rent
Health care
School fees
Courier services
Commuting by metro or rail may become expensive.

Services that may get cheaper in most states
With entertainment taxes getting subsumed in GST, prices of movie tickets and theatrical performances may become cheaper in most states.
Dining in restaurants may also become more pocket friendly in most states.

Essential goods, certain vehicle categories likely to be cheaper
In terms of goods, where an exemption/ lower rate is prescribed for essential goods, GST is expected to marginally better the house economics as a whole. Further, under the GST regime, depending on the current supply chain arrangement and state of operation following may become cheaper:
Two-wheelers
Entry-level sedan (except small cars)
SUVs and luxury or premium cars

Marginal impact on white goods
Again depending on the current supply chain structure and related indirect taxes, a commoner could expect a 2% to 3% plus or minus impact on white goods like:
Televisions
Washing machines
Stoves

Aerated drinks , sin goods prices likely to jump
The Government aligned with its negative outlook to deleterious goods, proposes a higher tax on 'sin goods' which essentially includes aerated drinks, cigarettes and tobacco products. Where a higher rate of around 40% is proposed on aerated drinks, the same may witness an increase in their prices.

Positive impact on cost of most supplies in long term expected
While the above anticipations are mostly basis the information released/ statements of government officials available in the public domain, we would need to await the final fitment structure released by the Government on categorization and related rates for various goods or services. Nonetheless, with enabling of anti-profiteering and other corrective measures, GST should result in a decreased cost for most supplies to the end consumer in the long run.
