Longstanding arrogant myth that tiny number of income tax paying individuals bear ALL the expenses of the govt. Actually, just 1/5th of central govt revenue is personal income tax. In reality, even the begging child on the pavement bears some burden of indirect taxes.

One year in, we exposed a loophole that some clever investors had been exploiting. In a big win for the common investor, this led to the rule of time stamping of each fund transaction which put an end to the practice. Join us as we look back. #20YearsOfMFI 19 days to go!

Sudden decision by @SEBI_India to start micromanaging funds' investments at such a deliicate time could be counterproductive for investors. Apart from punters who have unwisely piled into smallcap stocks and now need a rescue, no one else will benefit from this. 3/3

In fact, by forcing fund managers to compulsarily sell big quantities of large-cap stocks and buy small cap stocks, this will harm investors' interests. Why is @SEBI_India doing this? What benefit will this sudden micromanagement of investment strategies bring for investors? 2/n
