you are one of the powerful and richest family in India and claiming to have no estate?
Left in LI will not accept it but will justify it somehow
Suggest you google "UPA 9 years, 9 scam" to understand the sheer magnitude of scams perpetrated by Gandhis and their stooges. You will be foolish to think they were not the beneficiaries.
"Let's not forget LIBRARY"
"The man was a pioneer of dedicating his wealth for public use instead of passing it on to his children"
I mean its perfectly fine to not like BJP. But just for THAT...don't pass statements that make it seem your brain has left your top floor and gone for a walk.
Sheth is the guy who made Indian airforce work for a private dance party & opposed GST & Aadhaar only to make a U Turn
Its just not how the law works.
And an estate duty/ tax is not the equivalent of taking everything away from everyone and ending inheritance. It would depend on how much wealth is being passed down and in what way- but it likely wouldnt affect most people.
But deep down we all want excise duty to return. #musings
