📊India’s GST revamp trims slabs to 5% & 18% (40% on luxury).
🛒 Essentials ease up.
🛡️ Insurance turns GST-free (earlier 18%).
💰 Example: ₹10L cover (~₹15K premium) saves ~₹2.7K/yr if passed on.
A breather for budgets, a push for protection.

🏡Even the top 5% need 109 years of savings to buy a home in Mumbai.
Homeownership remains a top aspiration, as per the BankBazaar Aspiration Index. Loans help, but interest can nearly double your cost.
✅To cut costs, prepay early and keep your credit score strong. #homeloans

#news SBI Cards, the credit card company of State Bank of India (SBI) has revised its minimum amount due (MAD) formula with effect from July 15, 2025. As per the new formula, those with higher outstanding balances need to pay a higher MAD. But one good aspect about this new MAD formula is your charges and fees will be paid in full, so unlike earlier they will not get compounded with time.
The new MAD calculation includes 100% of GST, 100% of EMI amount, 100% of fees/charges, 100% of finance charges, any overlimit amount, and 2% of the remaining balance outstanding.
The old calculation method for minimum amount due (MAD) includes the total GST, EMI amount, 100% of fees and charges, 5% of the finance charge, retail spends, and cash advance, as well as any overlimit amount.
Read the story to know more about how it impacts SBI Card credit card users.

Tough conversations aren’t easy, but how you start them makes all the difference. Instead of blaming, try leading with ‘I’—what I did, how it affected me, & how we move forward. A great takeaway from Difficult Conversations by Patton, Stone & Heen. How do you handle tough talks?
📌 Save this!
With rate cuts on the horizon, the question is: When will my home loan rate drop?
It depends on when and where you took your loan.
For quick, automatic rate cuts at no cost, your loan must be repo-linked from a bank. #HomeLoan #InterestRates
