In India’s rapidly growing urban centers and Tier 1 cities, owning a house or flat is not just a dream—it’s also an investment. Many homeowners buy properties with the idea of earning monthly rental income. But in the process, certain legal questions arise: If you rent out your flat, do you still qualify as a “consumer” under Indian law? Can builders deny your consumer rights by claiming that your property purchase was for business purposes? Recently, the Supreme Court of India provided clarity on this important issue, delivering relief to millions of homebuyers across the country. The Context: Buying Property vs. Renting It Out Urban residents often invest in flats or apartments with dual goals: owning a home and earning rental income. However, some builders have argued that when a flat is rented out, the purchaser is no longer acting as a “consumer.” They claim that such purchases are intended for business purposes and, therefore, the buyer cannot avail the protections of the Consume...

भारत ने राइड-हेलिंग की दुनिया में एक बड़ा और नया कदम उठाया है। देश को अब अपना पहला सरकार समर्थित, सहकारी राइड-हेलिंग ऐप मिल गया है, जिसका नाम है भारत टैक्सी । यह ऐप अब पूरे देश में आधिकारिक रूप से लॉन्च हो चुका है। भारत टैक्सी को सहकारिता मंत्रालय द्वारा शुरू किया गया है और इसका संचालन सहकार टैक्सी कोऑपरेटिव लिमिटेड कर रही है। दिल्ली-एनसीआर जैसे क्षेत्रों में सफल पायलट परीक्षण के बाद, 5 फरवरी 2026 को केंद्रीय गृह एवं सहकारिता मंत्री अमित शाह ने इसका देशव्यापी शुभारंभ किया। भारत टैक्सी का उद्देश्य बिल्कुल साफ है— न कोई बिचौलिया, न भारी कमीशन, और ड्राइवरों के लिए सम्मान व सुरक्षा। यात्रियों के लिए इसका मतलब है पारदर्शी किराया और भरोसेमंद सेवा। ड्राइवर सिर्फ कामगार नहीं, बल्कि भागीदार भारत टैक्सी को बाकी ऐप्स से अलग बनाता है इसका सहकारी मॉडल । ओला और उबर जैसे निजी प्लेटफॉर्म पर ड्राइवरों को “गिग वर्कर” माना जाता है। कंपनी किराया तय करती है, नियम बनाती है और हर राइड से बड़ा कमीशन काटती है। इससे ड्राइवरों की आमदनी कम हो जाती है और अनिश्चितता बनी रहती है। भारत टैक्सी इस सोच को बदलती है।...

Share buybacks have become a common corporate strategy across the world. Companies often use buybacks to return excess cash to shareholders, improve financial ratios, and signal confidence in their future. However, with the rise of buybacks, governments introduced a special levy called Buyback Tax to ensure fair taxation. Many investors hear this term but don’t fully understand what it means or how it affects them. This article explains buyback tax—what it is, why it exists, and what it means for companies and investors. What Is Buyback Tax? Buyback tax is a tax charged on companies when they repurchase their own shares from shareholders. Instead of distributing profits through dividends, a company may choose to buy back its shares from the market. This reduces the total number of shares outstanding and often increases earnings per share, which can support the share price. To prevent companies from using buybacks purely as a tax-saving method, governments impose buyback tax. In India,...
