Don't think 7th Pay Commission panel suggestions will remain: Manohar Parrikar - India Today News

Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar on Tuesday said the recommendation of 7th Pay Commission was not final and he would take up concerns raised by the Armed Forces at the right level.

In an exclusive interview with the India Today, Parrikar said he has prepared ground for smoothening the defence procurement which needed to be backed by deliveries now.

On the concerns raised by the Armed Forces over the raw deal given to them in the 7th Pay Commission, Parrikar said it was not the final word. "The seventh Pay Commission is in the form of recommendations. I do not think they (recommendations) will remain. I do not consider them as finalities. I have flagged them and will flag them properly at the right level," said the defence minister.

Parrikar, who inaugurated arms show DefExpo in Goa on Monday where a strong pitch is being made to further expand the growing defence sector, said negative environment surrounding the military acquisitions has changed.

Delivery

"I will not claim that I have turned it around completely but at least something has been done so that deliveries can start. Ground has been prepared. Delivery is now the key word," said Parrikar adding that there was an environment of mistrust, suspicion which can be frustrating in dealing with forces.

He said the industry cannot be held responsible for responding slowly to the changing atmosphere. "They have experienced a congested atmosphere and the breeze has only now begun flowing in. However, it cannot happen overnight. Confidence building measures are in place. Industry has begun responding," he said outlining how smaller changes have been made.

"Offsets have taken off, exports are improving, procurement from local level has gone up. At the capital procurement level, it has not taken off or turned into a big deal because it takes longer. Industry has definitely responded." Talking about the defence reforms like the appointment of a Chief of Defence Staff, Parrikar said there are no hurdles in bringing defence reforms. "There has to be a rational decision. Drafts are being prepared and shared. Very soon it will be brought to the Cabinet," he said.

Asked about delay in development of critical equipment like Intermediate Jet Trainers (IJT) for the IAF or submarines for the navy, Parrikar said the air force does not think the IJT is a requirement as it is training on simulators, Basic Trainer Aircraft and Advanced Jet Trainer. "Instead of three, it is a two-level, re-caliberated approach. The proposal for six under-construction Scorpene submarines is moving smoothly. Next project P75, I will tag along with our policy document on Strategic Partnership," Parrikar said.

No timeline

"When it will come about? Very soon, but I am not willing to issue a timeline. As far as Arihant, the issue should not be discussed. We are equally concerned and are moving in the right direction," he said. The three services raised a number of issues, but when the pay commission sought the defence ministry's comments and recommendation, the ministry negated most of the demands of the services, the officer said

India Post Cashes in on E-retail Boom

BHUBANESWAR:  The Department of Posts has begun to rapidly upscale its parcel operations to cash in on e-retail boom in the country. It is all set to expand the integrated parcel and booking hubs across major locations while establishing a mechanised nodal delivery system soon, Union Secretary Kavery Banerjee said here on Tuesday.

Riding on the e-commerce growth, parcel and order delivery to customers through India Post has seen a major upswing in recent years. The parcel operations have, in fact, emerged the major revenue earner for the Department as traditional postal services have almost been pushed to oblivion on the onset of emails and mobile phones.

“Parcel revenue has shot up by 100 per cent in 2015-16 from 45 per cent in 2014-15. India Post boasts of a strong network reaching the nook and corner of the country which is a major advantage and alluring proposition for e-commerce companies. As many as 800 e-commerce sites have tied up for parcel and order delivery service and the number is increasing,” Banerjee said.

The Department, which has also ventured into banking, is also set to launch a mobile app enabling transactions from handsets later this year, she added.

The Secretary and top officials were here for the National Award presentation ceremony for outstanding business performance in Postal Life Insurance (PLI) in 2014-15. The spread of PLI policies has been increasing and touched 52.42 lakh as on March 31, 2015. Premium income has shown a higher growth from `2412.75 crore in 2009-10 to `5963.46 crore in 2014-15.

Ten officials of the Department, six agents and three postal divisions were presented with the awards for their performance in generating PLI business.

SB Order No. 01/2016 : Revision in Interest Rates of Small Savings Schemes

Post Offices witness technical glitches in core banking solutions network

Depositors irked by delays

Post offices witness technical glitches in core banking solutions network

For the past few days, customers at many post offices have been waiting in queues for long hours to make deposits in their savings scheme accounts.

But, many of them have had to return disappointed, owing to glitches in the core banking solutions (CBS) network.

More customers opted to invest in postal saving schemes after the Postal Department announced that until March 31, depositors could avail themselves of the existing interest rate even if the rates would be revised in April. However, several post offices in the city did not have the capacity to handle the sudden rush of investors and the CBS system had collapsed in many places.

Many customers visiting the T. Nagar head post office on Tuesday complained that they waited in queues for over two hours, to be informed that transactions could not be carried out as the system was not functional. Some of them alleged that depositors were turned down as postal investments before the month-end would attract higher interest rates.

A resident of Anna Nagar said that those who wanted to withdraw cash or close the accounts after maturity were the worst-affected and long waits often led to frayed tempers among customers.

Deivanai Pandian, a resident of Anna Nagar, said: “Some customers wait for over four hours to check if transactions can be carried out. I visit once in two days to check whether the situation has improved. There are instances when even the staff members begin their day before 10 a.m. but are unable to carry out operations because the CBS system is not working.”

Customers demanded that the technical glitches in the software of the CBS be resolved and the bandwidth be increased to address such issues.

Officials of the Department said more customers chose to invest in senior citizens’ savings scheme, recurring deposits and time deposits.

On Sunday alone, 6,300 accounts were opened in the Chennai city region and deposits were accepted in post offices through manual system as in Anna Nagar. However, withdrawals cannot be made till the problem is set right and customers may have to opt for cash from postal ATMs.

Admitting that there had been a problem in CBS-enabled post offices, Mervin Alexander, Postmaster General (Chennai City Region), said overloading the system due to a large number of transactions in a short span had led to the problem and the technical team was involved in resolving it.

“We have a contingency plan to prevent inconvenience to customers. We have instructed post offices to accept deposits and provide manual receipts so that people need not wait for long hours,” he said. He added that nearly 25,000 saving accounts were opened in the past one week.

Postal staff members had been instructed to accept deposits and make entry online later to help customers get the benefits of higher interest rate.

FEDERATION OF NATIONAL POSTAL ORGANISATIONS T-24, Atul Grove Road, New Delhi - 110 001. Phone : 011-23321378 E-mail : theagarajannachi@hotmail.com Ref : 120/2016 Dated : 28-3-2016 To Mrs.Kavery Banerjee Secretary, Department of Posts New Delhi 110 001 Sub; Excruciating state and intolerable stress among cadres due to the malfunctioning of CBS- reg. Respected Madam, My Federation constrains to bring this issue again and again despite of our discussion and letters, there is no development in the field. Therefore I am once again forced to write this issue to you that is about the insurmountable misery our officials are doomed to suffer in the CBS enabled post offices. There appears to beno ray of hope for the respite to which our staff are overdue in all levels regardless of the hierarchy. But theofficials working in the post offices are put to rigorous exploitation and the resultant stress. Even though we are boasting of having brought as many 20500offices under the nexus of CBS operation and outwitted the digital connectivity of the other stake holders, the working condition of the workers are deterioted to such degree of exploitation forcing us to intervene for an immediate solution. The innovation does not lead to technological improvisation ensuring the best possible service to the customers. But, instead, had rendered our staff with an unsavory and humiliating experience of encountering the public wrath and curse on day to basis. Al the assurances the administration, had given in the past about the transient nature of the problems had not proved to be credible and worthy merit. Instead the problems are aggravating day by day making every one skeptic of the words from the authorities that be. The staffs are working up to midnight to see that the validation followed by EOD is given staring the computers most of the time for connectivity. There was a total collapse of the connectivity impounding our staff to stay as late as mid night. The system administrators of the divisional headquarters are doomed to monitor the completion of the work round the clock and in fact have to complete the validation and other work of the sub offices by obtaining the details of the transactions over phone.The staff of CPC are equally ordained to work tireless. The plight of the women employees is ineffable and RISK fraught especially when they are to return to home in the late hours. Apart from, becoming totally indifferent and inattentive to their domestic chores (including child care), their vulnerability to the undesirable incidents either while working alone in remote offices or on the way back to home in odd hours are to be borne in consideration and remedy found on a war - foot basis. Theemployers are not all paying any heed to serious state where in the security of women staff at stake attracting various provisions of the law of land in the event of any untoward incident. Request is hereby fervently made by the undersigned forfinding way and means to end this end this draconian travails meted to officials in CBS offices. • The connectivityspeed is said to be one of the prime reason for all these hardship faced by our staff some time back when the roll out was fewer. • The problem relating to the center server‘s imbibing capacity of the data being entered is now adduced to be the sole dominating reason for the presentlogjam. • But oblivious to what is in store for us by the action in higher echelons, it is requested to do some plausible measure in our domain to bring down the peril facing us by adapting some procedural changes . The over flooding of data reach out to server in the evening hours pertaining to BO transaction results in clogging and glitches, very typical of peak hour spurt in the traffic. The work in closing hours of the sub offices is to be reduced if at all any prima facie remedy is to be realized. The following measures are suggested for these can be done in our level as per the rules and with out causing any injury to customers interest. (i) The conversion of all BO in the CBS offices as one day transit offices with instruction to treat the bag received for the day as bags received after closing of the account bag to HO, except taking the cash as advance remittance. The contents of the bag except RL/mails are to kept overnight and to be incorporated in the next day account. The work of the BOS is therefore can be started right from the morning with the vouchers of previous day and can be put through in phased manner during office hours. The spread out entry of BOs transactions concurrently and leisurely with the sub offices work will avoid the accumulation in the evening and the crowding of data to server can be therefore be effectively eschewed. (ii) Even if there is any likelihood of delay due to unanticipated glitches, the work of the day can be planned and alternate measures of shifting the CBS related work to nearby offices where the verification can be done well within reasonable time. (iii) Constituting of special salvaging cell comprising of qualified staff with staggered attendance at focal points in order to complete the work of the Sub offices that cannot be accomplished for the aforesaid reason. As such it is a common sight that some of the sub office staffs are trying the validation in the HO in late evening hours as and when the total connectivity is lost in their office. (iv) After close of the SO transaction along with the BO transaction of the previous day (by changing the value date), the EOD should be given at once in order to facilitate the CPC to run EOD for the circle level. The DC can therefore be run on the same day.But in the present arrangement, the initiation of EOD at postoffice level after validating the BO transaction late followed by CPC EOD compliance drags the DC to be run on the peak hours of the next day. Eventually telling upon the flow of the SO transactions the morning itself. (v) Now the augmentation of server and providing additional serverare impossible instantly.The heavy data flow cripples the work as per the latest findings by the experts. It is true that with more than 20000 SOLS and more number of logins, it may not possible to access the server swiftly.Further the target related spurt in the opening of accounts etc has increased the data flow.With a net result the server what we have now in dearth of space over flooded withdata and is bound to delay the transaction. The roll out of the rest of the Non CBS offices is beyond imagination with the available capacity and in fact have to be dropped in the beginning of this week . Oflate, the Infosys have advised that the duration of idle sessions be minimized and further to keep session count under check by restricting the session users.Of this couple of findings, the idle session time has since been reduced to 5 mts for thepast 4 days.Nevertheless there is no improvement. As regards the restriction of the session users, not only for thepresent season, but till the server is added up the way out is to be found out by the Department. It is for sure the worker of the department cannot endure any more to undergothe rigors and drudgery of working late in the night to see the transactions are validated. My Federation of the strong conviction that the basic work of the POSB,as enshrined in our volume should be done manually on day to basis and the value added service like CBS and ATM can be performed periodically ,on turn basis, which will restrict the usersat optimum level conducive to server to serve swiftly. Thus the CBS will have to be termed and practiced as real time CBS. The slot should be apportioned among the sub offices with HO empowered to have access daily. The sub offices during the restricted day should accept the transactions as in the past duly maintainingthe Long book and RD journal etc to substantiate the receipt and payment in the daily account. The vouchers can be validated by sending the same to HO on the same day along a copy of the long book and RD journal as the case may be. At Ho there should be enough staff strength (drawing officialsrendered surplus from abolition of SOSB and from SBCO in staggered attendance) to do the validation and this team can be deployed in night hour attendance on par with CPC.The updation of SO transaction work during the non CBS days at HO should be timed in such way that it should not delay the EOD and DC of the day. The bandwidth of the HO can be raised considerably and thus the Core banking inclusion can be done on the same day, even though not instantly, for the costumer to get the value added service CBS uninterruptedly. This can be done till such time server capacity are enhanced or number added up.By doing so the much desired reduction in session login by the Infosys can be ensured by adapting the procedure already in vogue in our volumes without depriving the service of basic POSB to customers (in whatever way that deemed fit and plausible.) My Federation therefore request you to kindly look in to matter and save the official from exploitation, otherwise no other choice for officials but to leave the office as such after the close of working hours by duly incorporating the receipts and payment of the day towards POSB manually and thereby fulfilling the basic objective of the basic duty behold a Postoffice. Further my Federation request your good self to defer the RICT which will increase the logged in users multi-folded till such time server is added or amplified for seamless access. If the atrocities unleased on worker for no fault of them if goes unabated , we are left with no other choice of resorting to Trade Union action and judicial remedy drawing the attention of the Government about the barbaric way of treating the workers in the Department of Post. Yours Sincerely, (D. Theagarajan) Secretary General

Inclusion of Interest Income in the Return of Income filed by Persons liable to Pay Tax

Information regarding interest earned by individuals and business entities on term deposit is filed with the Income Tax Department by banks including co-operative banks and other financial institutions and State treasuries etc. Form 26AS reflects only those payments on which tax has been deducted and it can be viewed by the individual tax payer by logging in to www.incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in. The information about interest payments without deduction of tax is also filed by the payer with the Department.

Central Board of Direct Taxes(CBDT) hereby informs the persons earning interest income that interest credited/received on deposits is taxable unless exempt under Section 10 of the Income-tax Act. Such interest income should be shown in the return of income even in cases where Form 15G/15H has been filed if the earning is not exempt under Section 10 of the Income-tax Act and the total income of the person exceeds the maximum amount not chargeable to tax. 

Tax payers are advised to collect correct details of interest received or credited and 

* file their return of income for assessment year 2014-15 (if not filed already) on or before 31.03.2016 in case their total income exceeds the maximum amount not chargeable to tax.

*  revise their return of income for assessment year 2014-15/2015-16 if the return already filed does not include taxable interest income.

*file return of income for assessment year 2015-16, if not filed so far by including taxable interest income if any, on or before 31.03.2016 and avoid penalty u/s 271F.

5 Year Post office Time Deposit eligible for 80C

Investment made in "five year time deposit in an account under Post Office Time Deposit Rules, 1981" will be eligible for deduction from the Gross total income, under section 80C, with the overall section treshold of 1 Lakh.

  

The additional point to be noted is "The amendment shall apply to investments, as above, made during the financial year 2007-08 and subsequent years."

Below is the summary of the Finance bill presented in the budget:

Enlargement of the scope of eligible saving instruments under section 80C

Section 80C of the Income-tax Act provides for a deduction of upto rupees one lakh to an individual or a Hindu undivided family (HUF) for,-

(i) making investments in certain saving instruments; or

(ii) incurring expenditure on tuition fee and repayment of housing loan.

With a view to encourage small savings, it is proposed to enlarge the scope of eligible saving instruments by inserting two new clauses in sub-section (2) of section 80C. 

The following investments made by the assessee, during the previous year, shall be eligible for deduction under section 80C within the overall ceiling of rupees one lakh:-

(i) five year time deposit in an account under Post Office Time Deposit Rules, 1981; and

(ii) deposit in an account under the Senior Citizens Savings Scheme Rules, 2004.

Further, it is also proposed to provide that where any amount is withdrawn by the assessee from such account before the expiry of a period of 5 years from the date of its deposit, the amount so withdrawn shall be deemed to be income of the assessee of the previous year in which the amount is withdrawn. The amount so withdrawn, accordingly, shall be liable to tax in the assessment year relevant to such previous year. The amount liable to tax shall also include that part of the amount withdrawn which represents interest accrued on the deposit. However if any part of the amount so received or withdrawn (including the amount relating to interest) has suffered taxation in any of the earlier years, such amount shall not be taxed again.
