Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

Meaning of Salary
Any remuneration paid by an employer to his employees in consideration of his
services is called salaries.
• Salary comes into existence as a result of employer-employee relationship.
• In a employer-employee relationship, employee performs his duties and the
employer provides him salary.
The meaning of the term ‘salary’ for purposes of income tax is much wider than what
is normally understood. The term ‘salary’ for the purposes of Income-tax Act, 1961
will include both monetary payments (e.g. basic salary, bonus, commission,
allowances etc.) as well as non-monetary facilities (e.g. housing accommodation,
medical facility, interest free loans etc). Section 17(1), defined the term “Salary”. It is
an inclusive definition and includes monetary as well as nonmonetary items.
Income from Salary
4. 4
As per Section 17(1) definition salary includes :
(i) Salary , wages,
(ii) any annuity or pension,
(iii) any gratuity,
(iv) any fees, Allowances, commission, perquisite or profits in lieu of or in addition to any salary or
wages,
(v) any advance of salary
(vi) any payment received in respect of any period of leave not availed by him i.e. leave salary or
leave encashment,
(vii) the portion of the annual accretion in any previous year to the balance at the credit of an
employee participating in a recognized provident fund to the extent it is taxable and
(viii) transferred balance in recognized provident fund to the extent it is taxable,
(ix) the contribution made by the Central Government or any other employer in the previous year to
the account of an employee under a pension scheme referred to in section 80CCD
5. Computation of Salary in the Grade System
An employee may be entitled to receive Salary in grade system. Under
this system, the normal annual increments to be given to employee are
already fixed in the grade.
For example, if an employee joins the service on 01.06.2010 and is
placed in the grade of Rs. 10000-1000- 15000-2000-25000
then his salary from 01.06.2010 will be Rs. 10,000 p.m. and thereafter
his salary will be Rs. 11000 p.m. w.e.f. 31.05.2011 until it reaches Rs.
15,000 after which it will increase annually by Rs. 2000 until it reaches
Rs. 25,000. After that, employee will be placed in another grade.
7. Basic Salary: It is the sum paid by employer to employee as salary and shall be fully taxable.
Dearness Allowance (DA) or Dearness Pay (DP): It is an extra amount given to an employee to meet the
burden of inflation or increased cost of living. This is fully taxable. Note: Sometimes, it is given that
DA/DP is not forming a part of retirement benefit (Leave encashment, Pension, Provident Fund, etc.). In
such case, DA/DP itself shall be fully taxable. However, for calculating taxable Leave encashment,
Pension, HRA, etc., DA/DP will be included in ‘salary’ only if it forms a part of retirement benefit.
Fees: An employee may be given apart from basic salary, extra remuneration for doing specific job
under the terms of employment. Such extra remuneration is termed as fee and shall be fully taxable.
Commission: It may be as a percentage of turnover or as a percentage of profit. In either case, it is
taxable.
Bonus: Bonus may be contractual or voluntary. In either case, it is fully taxable. (i) Contractual bonus is
taxable as bonus whereas voluntary bonus is taxable as perquisite. (ii) It is taxable in the year of receipt.
(iii) If arrear bonus is received, assessee can claim relief u/s 89(1).
8. The fixed sum paid by employer to employee to meet official or personal expenses. Different types of
allowances are given to employees by their employers. Generally allowances are given to
employees to meet some particular requirements like house rent, expenses on uniform, conveyance
etc.
