IS OPPOSITION'S WORK IS JUST TO HOLD THE SESSIONS??

IS OPPOSITION'S WORK IS JUST TO HOLD THE SESSIONS??

Is opposition is just to hold the key and important bills in the Parliament or to give suggestions and improvise the existing bills and help the running government to pass the bill and make it an act which can be used for the betterment and development of the country.

With over 1.5 years of Narendra Modi led NDA government we have seen the opposition doing the same thing over and over again in every session of the Parliament.

And this not only applies to Congress and its other allies but to each and every government whether in power or not.

Every time a bill is there to be passed it becomes a necessary issue for the so called opposition to hold the bill in suggestion reforms or do their best possible tactics to waste the sessions time so that the bill could not be passed.

And it has become a regular practice in India , take for example Goods and Service Tax Bill was a Congress’s government bill and was opposed by the Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) and now when they are in power they want the bill to be passed , the Congress does not want it to be passed.

Though the Indian Judicial system has become as joke in the resent times with the releasing of the Nirbhaya’s rape case convict, the law making structure is also becoming a joke and a black spot on the face of so called the fasting growing economy – INDIA.
With over 4 sessions upheld the fate of GST is still in dark. The big business houses want it, the international market wants it, the people are also waiting for it but the law maker are still doing their rounds on the case of the Gandhis’ and wasting the important time of the Parliament.

The people of Republic of India elects the Member of Parliaments to the Lok Sabha to make the laws and make our country a better place to live , work and grow, but what has been done for the past years is in front of us.

The past one year, what we saw is that one session wasted on the intolerance issue, one session wasted on the communist thoughts of the government which not even exists and this session is wasted on the National Herald case.

Though I admire the Narendra Modi and his vision and mission for India, the last 2 Years saw a significant increase in the credibility of India in the international market, but this issue of wasting the sessions time and holding up of the key bills with which the growth of india also breaks need to be resolved as soon as possible.

It is high time that we should make some major modifications in our law making and implementation structure of our country.

MY LIFE, MY STORY

MY LIFE, MY STORY

My story in the world of Chartered Accountancy started when I first saw my marks in accountancy.

It became my favourite subject and in a short span of time become my first love too. I was an average student till I was in 10th, but the life had a surprise for me in 11th, my love for accountancy and commerce was at top peak, I got a scholar badge that year for standing at 3rd position in all the commerce section.

It was a life changing moment for me, because I never got such a respect in my school.

My friend Varun Mahey told me about Chartered Accountancy and since I didn’t knew too much about the course.

I found that it was something which can help me in fulfilling my dreams and make me a kind of person I want to be.
A year later when I passed 12th there was a kind of disappointment in my heart for myself as I scored too low of my expectation. It was only 89.6% aggregate though for many people these are good marks, but the ones associated with the commerce industry know that this is nothing in front of the ones who wanted to be in college. I didn’t even scored highest marks in Accountancy.

Though not high but there was an expectation in my eyes during my +2 time that I would make it to a regular college in Delhi University.

But my friends who scored 95% could not make it to a good college in north campus how could I even imagine that with my marks.

Somehow in few days I got out of it and make my mind to give full attention to get good marks in CA-IPCC so that I can also stand up and say that I did something.

The day is still fresh in my mind when I first enter my cost fm class and I saw 2000+ students and I was dumbstruck as it was clear that I have to compete with these many plus many other students in my exams with result that is barely less than 10%.

My journey during tuitions was full of ups and down, there was a time when the tuition timings and travelling was killing me from inside  and three also was a time when  me and my friends used to sit on the floor of the last coach of the overcrowded metro and used study till the time our stations do not come.

Studying during travelling in metro and all the difficult situations made us tough towards the hardships in life and made me more focused to do something great.

In the last the tuitions got over a and my papers of b.com hons 1st years on 15 June and I was on my bed with books of all the subjects and this was the time which is more crucial then any other thing in life.

It was barely 4 months for self study and revision and to do the things which would make me a 
CA-FINALIST.

Firstly I would like to tell you that at that time also I was not having my own phone so watsapp was not an issue plus I didn’t have too many friends which could be a possible distraction as all my friends were doing CA only and we all knew that we should not disturb each other more often.

In first month I started with cost fm and finished it then accounts then theory, for each and every month there was a target in my mind and for each and every day I used to make a target on that day only keeping in mind what subject need to be studied that day.

What I would suggest is that I maintained a small diary and i used to write my goals everyday that 
what I have to do today and till the time I don’t achieve it I usually don’t go to sleep.

The day which is wasted due to any other reason when I could not study I just used to let that page empty with a tight slap on my face and start to study for the present day.
I first faced a problem in the month of September when I saw that the cost fm which I studied was out of my mind.

I decided to do practice material for that and found out the power of revision and importance of practice material that very moment.

I did practice manual for each and every subject, and truly speaking more than 75% of questions was from study material( practice manual and study mat).

And during exam time whenever I used to feel odd or de motivated I used to say that it’s just another paper and I have to see more difficult and important exams in future.

Be relaxed during paper no matter if the paper didn’t end well just forget it and prepare for the next paper. This thing happened with me in law paper and never got tensed because it went really bad. I just started preparing for the next paper.

And 2 months after that I cried sitting in front of my computer with the mark sheet in it stating that I scored 60%+ marks in CA-IPCC with both groups cleared. It was a life changing moment for me.

It was the passion of mine to follow my dreams and the junoon to do something in my life and the rectification of my disappointment with the result of 12th gave me the energy to do it.

I hope the best for you all and like to tell you that you can and you will no matter what the circumstances are.

All the best and I hope you like my story.

DEBIT AND CREDIT NOTES EXPLAINED


DEBIT AND CREDIT NOTES 


Every time, I heard the words , DEBIT AND CREDIT NOTES,  I used to get stuck at it and used to think over it again and again and wasted my time and I am sure that many amongst you have also experienced the same, but today I am gonna explain it to the depth with examples and I hope that it will help you to the core and here I go,



WHAT ARE DEBIT AND CREDIT NOTES?

DEBIT NOTE – it is an instrument issued by the PURCHASER of the goods to the seller of the goods indicating that he wishes to return the goods purchased by him .
CREDIT NOTE- it is an instrument issued by the SELLER indicating that goods returned by the purchaser has been received by him.


ACCOUNTING TREATMENT :

In the books of purchaser-
  • ·         When goods are purchased following entry  is passed:

PURCHASE A/C                 DR.
  TO CREDITOR   A/C.
( Being goods purchased)
  • ·         When a purchaser wishes to return the goods, he issues a DEBIT NOTE and passes the following entry

CREDITOR A/C.                  DR.
TO PURCHASE RETURN A/C.
(Being goods returned)


In the books of seller:
  • ·          When goods are sold

DEBTORS A/C.                   DR.
TO SALES A/C
(Being goods sold)
  • ·         When seller issues CREDIT NOTE  to the purchaser indicating that goods returned by seller has been received by him and the purchaser doesn’t have to pay anything for the said described goods in the credit note.

SALES RETURN A/C.        DR.
TO DEBTOR A/C.
(Being goods returned)


POINT TO BE REMEMBERED FOR BETTER UNDERSTANDING:

 For remembering who issues debit note and who issue credit note, just consider the DEBTOR AND CREDITOR at the time of returning goods, if debtor is credited, it is a credit note and if creditor is debited it is debit note.


IS IT NECESSARY THAT CR.AND DR. NOTES ARE ISSUED ONLY IN CASE OF RETURN OF GOODS?

The answer is NO,
In case either of the party is over or undercharged, DR. AND CR. NOTES can be issued by them to settle the account.

Sample debit and credit notes:
