The document discusses whether a business that is continuously suffering losses should be shut down or continued. It notes that losses can occur due to reduced demand, financial problems, changes in technology, high taxes, or mismanagement. When deciding whether to shut down or continue, tax implications should be considered. Losses can be carried forward if the business is discontinued, and unabsorbed depreciation can be set off against any income. Exceptions exist for cases involving business relocation, department closures, reconstruction after damage, succession, family partition, and amalgamation/demerger. The document provides an illustration comparing the tax implications of continuing versus discontinuing a loss-making business unit. It recommends discontinuing the loss-making unit

Tax planning is a focal part of financial planning. It ensures savings on taxes while simultaneously conforming to the legal obligations and requirements of the Income Tax Act, 1961. The primary concept of tax planning is to save money and mitigate one's tax burden.
Tax Planning is the arrangement of financial activities in such a way that maximum tax benefits are enjoyed by making use of all beneficial provisions in the tax laws. It entitles the assessee to avail certain exemptions, deductions, rebates and reliefs, so as to minimise its tax liability.
(i) Reduction of tax liability: One of the supreme objectives of tax planning is the reduction of the tax liability of the payer and the resultant saving of the earnings for a better enjoyment of the fruits of hard labour.
(ii) Minimization of litigation and the tax payer may be saved from the hardships and inconveniences caused by unnecessary litigations.
(iii) Productive investment: Tax planning is a measure of awareness of the taxpayer to the intricacies of the taxation laws and it is the economic consciousness of the income earner to find out the ways and means of productive investment of the earnings which would go a long way to minimize its tax burden.
(iv) Healthy growth of economy: The saving of earnings is the only basement upon which the economic structure of human life is founded.
(v) Economic stability: Productive investment increase contours of the national economy embracing in itself the economic prosperity of not only the tax payers but also of those who earn the income not chargeable to tax. The planning thus creates economic stability of the nation and its people by even distribution of economic resources.
(i) Residential status and citizenship of the assessee: We know that a non-resident in India is not liable to pay income-tax on incomes which accrue or arise and are also received outside India, whereas a resident in India is liable to pay income-tax on such incomes.
(ii) Heads of income/assets to be included in computing net wealth: Before the Tax-planner goes in for his task; he has to have a full picture of the sources of Income of the tax payer and the members of his family

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Tax planning may be defined as an arrangement
of one’s financial affairs in such a way that
without violating in any way the legal provisions
of an Act, full advantage is taken of all

2. Financial problems :- A firm may not have sufficient finance of its own nor further
credit is available from bank or financial institutions due to government restrictions.
3. Change in technology:- Where the growth of technology is rapid and if it is not
possible to keep pace with it the net result may be a loss of profit.
4. High rate of taxes :-high rate of taxes – import duty , excise , sales tax , octroi etc. ;
increase the price of the product . Due to this demand of the product may fall and
business may suffer losses.
5. Mismanagement
4. When a business suffer continuously , whatever the reason of loss may be , the management
has to decide whether the business should be shut down or continue . While taking this
decision , the impact of income tax provisions should not be overlooked.

connection the following points are worth
noting:-
7. 3. Where two or more companies amalgamate and form a new company , the assessee
(amalgamating companies and amalgamated companies )and the business are not the same

carried forward for being set off in the
subsequent year against income even from
an illegal speculation business because the
law assumes that any illegal business dies
12. B. Withdrawal of certain deductions:- the benefits of deductions under section 33AB (
tea development account/ coffee development account / rubber development account )
and 115VT (reserve for shipping business )may be withdrawn and liable to tax for the
year in which business is discontinued.
