Dear @IncomeTaxIndia
How has a media/news company become eligible to provide 80G exemptions for donations it collects?
I don't think Pravda Media Foundation has put up anything online about their "charitable" activities.
Seems @IncomeTaxIndia has given them a loophole
As per section 8 rules for a company, employees are not allowed to draw salary for their services. However Altnews website says they are paying salaries. This is a blatant income tax violation. Seems the section 8 registration is only done to dodge income tax!
Yeh bhi fact check karle ❤️de / takle
As per my understanding of section 8 companies, all staff/directors must work on volunteer basis. This is the reason such a company would get income tax exemption. Maybe alt news has found a loophole to exploit this n cheat on income tax

How could we miss out on the FCRA violation! Proof of foreign donation!
Having read more in detail about section 8 companies, I was wrong about employees not being allowed to draw salary.
Only members i.e. share holders are not allowed to draw salaries or dividends.
The questions still remain:
1) is a media company that does not do any charity be
allowed to register under section 8

2) are any of the share holders drawing salaries?

3) Have FCRA laws been violated in the past?

#ScamAlert AltNews doing income tax fraud!

AltNews is run by Pravda Media Foundation which is a company registered under section 8 of companies act. This section is for registering "Not for profit" companies Image
It's a section that is specifically made for charitable orgs. It has many advantages like exemption from income tax, stamp duty, etc ImageImage
There is however a very important condition, that no member i.e. share holder/promoter of such company can draw a salary or take profit as dividend. Pravda Media Foundation managing director Nirhari Sinha is 50% share holder with 2500 shares ImageImage

The perks of working in @HinduITCell :

Mom-Dad-bro super confused whether to support activism or fear for family safety

Relatives giving kudos and congratulatory messages along with precautionary warning for safety

Close friends dissociate on social media but
Give full support in real life.

Lost all secular friends (that's good riddance actually)

Getting doxxed and photos of family members morphed and put online

Time and energy spent in the cause itself

This is not a rant, this is what we face everyday and this is not normal
We are fighting for a country where our safety should not be endangered for speaking the truth. Our future generations should be able to raise their head high, our fight today will ensure this. So please do not fear what may happen if you speak the truth and continue

Director Kabir Khan wanted proof of Hindu genocide hy Mughals.
His circumcised dick is proof enough of how women of his ancestors' houses were raped by Tamur's clan.
We shall not give up this fight. Bring it on @DisneyPlusHS
Raiders of North - a book glorifying Mughal barbarians who led their "glorius" armies into battle with "ruthless ambitious Indian Empire" is basis of series on @DisneyPlusHS
Yet, my grievance about normalising Hindu genocide hy Mughals is "baseless" according to Hotstar

Economic Implications of an Islamic State of India (IF):

Short Term:
1) Bye Bye tourism and Hospitality Industry:
Hijab beaches / swimming pools, no alcohol, no nightlife, but multiple puncture repair shops in case you like driving.
2) Bye Bye Private Education Sector:
Schools turn into madrassas, end to academic freedom, history distortion, quran also introduced into science.
Moon splits, flat earth and wrath of allah.
3) End of finance sector as we know:
No interest, no income of banks / private lenders / NBFCs.
No more telemarketing calls for loans!! 🤑

7 key points inside France's new laws against radical Islamis, without mentioning Islam 😉:

1. Law against hate speech and seditious speech.
2. Controlling propaganda orgs, like NGOs and minority religious organisations
3. Madrassas now under control, but not mentioned 😂
