A requisition form is needed to be filled on Auditor's letter head which has details related to the CA's firm his number etc. and then after that an approval is made and a sr. nos is release from Tally which is licensed for Auditing.

Anna's effect on Tally.

Sunday, September 04, 2011
Anna Hazare's effect on Tally
During past few months I was away from Tally. Infact I was away from ApniTally also. I have felt a clear relationship that when ever I am with Tally I am with ApniTally also. If I am doing some work on Tally then I am also doing something on ApniTally also. During this period India went through a very critical phase of self introspect and deep thinking and this also got effect on my writings. Where we are going? Where India's corruption is taking us?

I write about Tally and Tally is a software which keeps track of our money. It also keeps track of what our govt. collects from us as we do business, the Taxes. In my one of the recent posts I have mentioned how much taxes we are paying. And this clutter of taxes is so much that Govt is imposing taxes and then taxes on taxes in form of surcharges and still it is having deficit budget. How much taxes should be raised so that we do not have deficit budget? Is there any solution. As the complications of taxes increase so is the complicity of Tally. More and more people would need Tally for their tax work. And Tally's business would flourish more then ever.

I have no objection to Tally's flourishing business as I am also one of the beneficiary of this flourishing business. Tally is just a solution. Solutions with a simplicity. More complex things become more simply the solutions would be in the hands of people in form of Tally. But question remains the same, where this would end? Soon govt is planning GST and Tally is going to play a big role in this. I went through the interview of Bharat Goenka which says that Tally has a target of becoming $100 million company by this year end. and By 2015 $ 1 Billion company. Tally is on its way to achieve its target but how Anna's effect would leave it's impact?

Anna's Effect
Let me explain the Anna's effect. As I have earlier said where this would end. We are heading towards more and more complex system of Taxation. But I would like to draw readers attention that the corruption of the system is the root cause of all maladies. If we see way back in 1973 in Hong Kong corruption was at its height and it was way of life. Even nurses, police etc were involved in bribery. People's anger spurted and they have their Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC), just like what we are trying to achieve by Jan Lokpal draft. It was not achieved very easily. When youth of Hong Kong came out against this system on the streets only then this commission was set up. Now they have one of the most honest administration in the world.
The effect is that now Hong Kong has now world's lowest taxing country. This page tells us that Hong Kong has
No Sales Tax
No VAT
No capital Gain Tax

Income tax is much simpler. It's lower limit is 2% and highest % is 20% .
Profit Tax maximum upto 16%

Reason is simple they don't have corruption. There is accountability, that's why they have honesty.
If this is achieved in India through Anna's movement and total transparency is achieve then we don't have to put deficit budget. All the money which is being consumed in corruption would be used for betterment of Indian's and Govt would perhaps need no money from taxation. That would be Anna's effect.

In the light of Anna's effect Tally would be changed to something more simpler. We may see some cut in options like VAT TDS etc. from Tally.

This should happen in India? Please let me know how this can be achieved.

A time to stop for a while and think

Thursday, March 31, 2011
This is one of the busiest time for all of us. Be it a Tally user out there like you people or a Tally seller like me. Every body is working on deadline of 31st March. Today when we all are busy finalizing our returns, completing books and making final fine tuning of accounts for income tax and other lots of taxes I request you all people to stop for a while and think that

What if we don't have to pay taxes for coming 30 years!!

What a fine moment it would be for India and Indians when all the money gobbled by Raja and party is recovered and put into India's welfare!

What if all money which have been pocketed by Kalmadi and friends is being taken back from their assets and put in use for opening schools with free of cost education and hospitals with free of cost medical facilities in all over India !

What if all money siphoned out of India by Hussan Ali is brought back in India and distributed among all Indians!

Can this happen? Yes It can. And we will do it. Watch this video and you would understand who this is possible.



What we have to do is understand our moral responsibility of being a good Indian. Our responsibility towards our children to give them a better India. That responsibility can be fulfilled by joining hands India Against Corruption and put our little bit towards this cause.

Our first step in this direction should be spreading awareness about this cause to as many as people we can, which is very easy task and we can do it by discussing this matter with fellow people and making opinion in people about the seriousness of this problem.

2nd step is marking your willingness to support this cause and keep an update on this issue. You can give a miss call to 02261550789 . It would keep you updated about this movement. You can like this page and show your interest also.

3rd step is joining hands with Anna Hazare ji and going on fast at you very own place in support of this cause to put pressure on Govt to pass strong Jan lokpal bill as drafted by IAC members. I think all of us can do fast for one day as usually every one does, this time it should be dedicated to this cause( Of course it would please Hanumanji as it would be on Tuesday).

Readers can discuss this issue by writing comments below with their names.
