BasuNivesh Forum Launched-Ask us your Personal Finance doubts

By / December 9, 2020

I am happy to announce that today we launched the Forum in our Blog. It is purely related to personal finance and readers can ask any questions related to personal finance.

BasuNivesh Forum

You can navigate it from the header of this blog or by clicking below link.

BasuNivesh Forum

Why felt necessary to have a Forum?

Since long, I have a plan to launch a forum. However, due to lethargic attitude or for some other reasons I postponed it. Finally, I discussed the idea with Jane (My Blog designer and the person who take care of all technical issues of this blog). She, in fact, applauded my idea of the forum.

I found that when visitors visit the blog either through search engines then it may be their specific search. However, at a later stage they may feel this blog is right for them to clear the other doubts, which is totally irrelevant to any particular blog post. In that case, they have to contact me personally either using the Contact Us page or through social networks like Facebook, Google+ or Twitter. This makes one to one communication and restricted to that particular person.

However, if the same question raised by another person then he again has to follow the same route. Instead, if we have a forum, then all readers can access the earlier questions raised and they can easily get an answer or come up with new ideas on the already given solution. After all, it is a learning forum for both visitors and to me.

Hence, I decided to launch this forum.

What are the benefits?

Even though after so finding my posts, you may still have some doubts. This you can rectify it by asking the right questions. At the same time, if I am not aware of the answers, then it automatically creates a learning experience for me too. Hence, it is a learning process for both readers and me.

How to ask questions?

To ask questions, you have to create a login. Then select the categories already listed which connects to your doubts. Then ask the questions. Either I will reply or other readers who feel may have answers to your doubts may answer to it.

Some rules of Forum

  • Questions must be only related to Personal Finance.
  • Spam questions like promoting any products or their own intentions never allowed.
  • Ask a question which actually bothering you in personal finance and looking for genuine answer.
  • Try to learn as much as possible to be a good and knowledgeable investor to handle your money.

Let us learn together !!!

      Dear Sandeep,
      Hard to say as there is no such declaration I found it. However, I am willing to go through RTI and find the real truth. In the meantime, if the published article gives us any notification references, then definitely I will come up with new post. Please share if you find any such information.

    Thanks for your new initiative to discuss financial related issues. My question is about Sukanya Samirithi account.
    My daughter is 7 yr old now and when my daughter was 5 yr old, i opened PPF in SBI in her name. Now when i approached to open Suakaniya account at the same branch, i was informed that it is not possible to open such account in her name because she has already PPF account. What is the relation between these two account and what is the restriction for the later one.I lodged the complaint at SBI office in Delhi and Trivandrum and SBI branch at Thrissur, Kerala ( I belongs to Kerala) but so far there is no reply from them. Even i lodged the compliant at Prim minister Website too. Unfortunately no one replied to me ? Whom should i contact to get proper reply about this issue and how can i open account.

    Hi,

    I have a question. I bought a flat in Bangalore for Rx x lakhs in Dec 2009. I sold it for x+y lakhs in Jul 2015. I know how to calculate the indexed cost and can calculate the long term capital gain. The index for 2015 is not yet out.

    I may not buy/build a house now. I want to avoid tax. How much bond should I buy? From whom? Is it available at any time of the year? Should I pay any advance tax? By what time?

    The house was in joint name with my wife(house wife – but having NCD income-filing tax return). I only paid off the loan. Can I declare half the capital gain in her name?

    Thanks
