    The problem with Xiaomi mi3 is buggy software. Further the free RAM after boot with no apps installed is 272 MB only. Whereas in my droid maxx is 900 MB, even though I have installed 100+ apps in my phone. Just compared with my friends phone yesterday. So miui is worse than touchwiz as a skin, IMHO. Plus point is it's root ready, but since they didn't release kernel source code, options for custom ROM is nil. Their developer ROM is as bad as nightlies. When you visit their forums, you can find that they didn't care about bug fixing much. But these limitations never affect average users, but not for android lovers / purists, IMHO Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk

    You are debiting tax system simplification & thread topic is " E-Commerce Websites Compliant With Indian State/Center Tax Laws? " I am talking with current tax system, which we have to follow and I am clear about my wish : not to lose any employments of local residents due to unhealthy competition. You see, any MNC like Amazon or wallmart can put tiny amount (for them) and they can spoil local business. Why Amazon USA collecting state tax while delivery on particular state address. In my view ebay.in is fraud, they are supporting anti tax practice and arranging deliveries. Uniform tax system (GST), Govt is planning but accounts must be on computer system for smoother flow, online work etc. which is currently not suitable for Indian condition, in Hyderabad, in day time 4 hrs. power cut applicable, Industries need to close 3 days in week due to power shortage. All the best. I am not debating whether e-commerce websites are compliant with current laws or not. That has already been answered by many more knowledgeable members, and to me it seems the jury is out on it - and there is no conclusive proof that e-tailers are engaging in fraud Let me explain my earlier post. I just happened to spot in the OP that you plan to file a public interest litigation against unfair trade practices of e-tailers, so I responded. Because the irony is, that this PIL, if filed, will not be in public interest of the consumer This leads to the crux of the problem - India has archaic tax laws, and due to non-uniform taxation imposed by states the situation is in a mess. Why should a resident of WB have to arrange for a waybill when someone from neighboring OR does not need to? GST aims to do away with it - but as you rightly said, GST is not yet implemented Your post itself highlights more pressing concerns which merit PILs - 4 hourly power cuts for example. We have seen examples of good-intention-ed but misguided PILs in India (e.g. based on a single PIL the HC banned tinted glasses in all cars - without taking into account the pros and cons clearly) Edit - also there is a MNC vs local business debate that you have brought into the argument. I will not debate it, but historically competition has been good for the industry and for the consumer - in all industries. India is a mature enough economy now and non-essential FMCG local businesses do not really need underhanded protection Anyway, we can agree to disagree. All the best to you also

    eBay.in is a big time fraud in regards to Taxes, they are allowing everyone without any compliance. But as per their T&C Seller / Buyer are responsible for Taxes, Duties etc. And as I said earlier 5% & 13% VAT for same item in 2 diff states, Margin comes to 8%, Wholesale business works on 4-5% margin and here people can earn much just due to tax variation. While GST will stop all of this.

    It’s right to serve worm-infested food to Indians. Right, Kelloggs?Source Remember October 2003, Cadbury India was hit by a huge controversy. Some of its products were infested with worms. The company worked hard to get out of the huge negativity the incident, or several of them, in Bangalore especially, got them into. They even roped in Amitabh Bachchan who extolled views across TV channels about the virtues of their chocolates and how spic and span the factory was and how it was packed in layers, under hygienic conditions to bring to you a product that is safe and ‘bug’-free, so to say. It did come as a shock to a lot then, for, most of these transnational giants come to India with a promise. A promise to deliver to the deprived Indians world-class products that they can buy right here, and not beg an uncle returning from an overseas trip and somehow lay your hands on a packet of Kraft cheese, or Toblerone chocolates or Head & Shoulder shampoo, or even a pair of Levi’s jeans. But it seems most of these biggies, when it comes to India, forget to adhere to the norms that they painstakingly follow abroad, taking the Indian consumer, or perhaps even the system here for granted. The latest to join the list of biggies offering worm-infested product to hapless Indians is Kelloggs India, the company that wants to change the breakfast habit of us Indians. Archana Sanjay in Bangalore opened a fresh pack of the company’s Chocos product, poured it into a bowl for her 3-year-old son Aarav and just as she was about to look away and let the child enjoy the product from the company that offers ‘world’s favourite cereal’, she heard him squeal. To her horror, the ‘quality’ product had a worm crawling inside the chocolatey pod that Aarav was about to devour. The product was packed on March 9, 2014 and was to be consumed within 9 months. Horrified, she snatched it from the child. But if you thought that the single pod alone was infested, you are wrong. Each and every pod of the product had the creepy crawly insect. Shocked, she went to the market and just to check, picked up another packet. The story repeated itself there too. Clearly, the company missed an opportunity here. When it claimed that this product is “a nourishing breakfast to take on an action packed and fun filled day in school. That’s because Chocos is now made with Whole Grain, which gives 11 essential vitamins and minerals, and fibre” it forgot to mention that their premium product also offers protein, live one at that. Archana is approaching the consumer forum with her complain and all evidence, and that even the product available on the shelves currently is infested. How utterly disgusting! Why do these companies treat Indian consumers almost with disdain? Sure, some will argue that Indian companies had been giving us such substandard and unhygienic product since ages, that we should not complain. Not fair. These biggies come into India with a promise that they will offer us quality that is world class. They get permission to set up operation here by playing on the emotional quotient, that the Indians have now arrived, and deserve to get world-class products, right here. Of course, they are never bothered about profits that among the fastest growing consumer markets in the world offers, I am sure, for their intention is to make us healthy. However, even as one disgusts, almost pukes at the thought of what if the child had consumed it. Actually, who knows. It is possible other kids were not as fortunate, for, doesn’t it often happen that the parent pours it into a bowl and gets busy while the child plays around, without being supervised. This episode has hurt that trust. It should. And even as I write this, I often wonder why should we let go of our own healthy, and fresh, option and go in for these processed items. Irrespective of their tall claims, they are not as healthy, or nutritious. How can this product, for example, compare with the spongy idlis, the healthiest fast food in the world, or light parathas, which, even with a little butter, would be better off than worm-infested, processed food on offer by these biggies. For me, a paratha or a roti or South Indian tiffin alternatives like upma or idli or dosa anyday over KFC or Big Mac.

    Way bill is a big time hurdles created by financially weak and indisciplined state and according to person like me who belongs to state like Gujarat is a big scam to keep states backwards. Very few poor states require way bills or road permit. Surprisingly recently state like karnataka introduced E SUGAM and it is creating so many hurdles to them. If e commerce sires are charging full CST instead of VAT then there is nothing wrong as from cst recipient state gets its share of taxes.

    MRP can varry from state to state. Like Diesel & Petrol is cheaper in Delhi while its much expensive in Mumbai because of Tax variation. Many items in Delhi are charged @ 5% which are charged @ 13% in MP. That's the reason government is pushing GST so that prices are same all over India.
