No GST On R&D Grants To Educational Institutes: A Game-Changer For India’s Higher Education

GST revenue has only noted a movement towards taxing educational institutions in India. Such grants are expected to ease the pressure on higher education institutions’ finances, foster public-private partnerships, and improve the nation’s competitiveness in research and grand challenges. The exemption is a relief for universities, research centres, and industries that may have focused their attention on tax responsibilities rather than their innovations.

This helps India’s vision of becoming economically independent via the ‘Atmanirbhar Bharat’ campaign and also enhances the research ecosystem since more public and private partnerships will be encouraged.

Exempting R&D grants from GST is revolutionising India's higher education, spurring innovation, boosting research, and enhancing public-priv

No GST for RON95, diesel, LPG

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 10, 2014:

This is probably good news for motorists.

RON95, diesel and liquid petroleum gas (LPG) will be exempted from goods and services tax (GST).

In tabling the 2015 Budget, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak dispelled fears once voiced by the Opposition that the GST would lead to an increase in fuel prices once the GST was implemented next year.

The news may also be of some respite following the recent RM0.20 increase for RON95 and diesel.

Najib also announced that of 994 goods and services that were in the basket of goods, Consumer Price Index, 532 goods or 56% were expected to see a price drop of up to 4.1%.

Among the products he listed were medicines, electrical appliances, textiles, plastic goods, shoes and slippers, home furniture, diapers, soap, meat, chicken eggs, oil, seafood, rice and vegetables.

Around 354 goods and services which will see a price increase, Najib assured, would not exceed 5.8%.

“What is important is the government hopes that retailers will be responsible and not raise prices until it burdens the people.

“To help the people, the government has released a shopper’s guide to allow them to make price comparisons before and after GST.”

La Ristrettos Novena Medical Centre 10 Sinaran Drive #08-37 Singapore 307506

Don't we all lament the amount of money paid on 10+7% of tax on food items is a bit too much while dining out? La Ristrettos is a nice little cafe tucked away on the 8th floor of Novena Medical Centre that has a nett price on all their food items.

I ordered a special item Duck breast with bacon and a couscous patty and a poached egg on top. The poach egg was a little over cooked, the duck breast was perfectly cooked, but the dish overall was rather gelat (oily and makes you sick if you eat too much) so while I didn't feel full, I did feel rather bloated.

The cappuccino did not leave a lasting impression. What made up for much of the experience was really its ambience, which looks out to a small garden and natural light shines through its tall glass windows. Although the cafe doesn't accommodate many people at once, is really nice for cosy small meetings between friends and couples.
