The GST Council is likely to consider modification in summary return and monthly tax payment form, GSTR-3B, in its meeting next month, with a view to check fake input tax credit claims and expedite settlement of genuine ones, an official said.

SEOUL, South Korea — President Joe Biden is tending to both business and security interests Sunday as he wraps up a three-day visit to South Korea, showcasing Hyundai’s pledge to build a $5.5 billion electric vehicle and battery factory in Georgia and visiting U.S. and South Korean troops monitoring the rapidly evolving North Korean nuclear threat. The major U.S. investment by a South Korean company, which was formally unveiled in Georgia on Friday, is a reflection of how the U.S. and South Korea are leveraging their longstanding military ties into a broader economic partnership.

Share to Twitter Share to Linkedin When the world is warned for weeks that an attack is imminent, as it was with Ukraine, there isn’t much more that can be done to prepare. Both Putin and most in NATO countries projected that Ukraine’s national government would be removed and replaced in a matter of days. Since the invasion began, the Ukrainians have inspired the world with a winning strategy deeply rooted in a culture of resilience. A cultural pivot to resilience, even knowing how to make Molotov cocktails to resist an invasion , has enabled a fierce resistance against a technically and numerically superior enemy. After only a few months, the diplomatic worry is shifting away from Ukraine’s likely victory towards how Putin will accept a loss – illustrative of what deeply-rooted resilience in culture can do, even on a shoestring budget. Similarly, resilience is ultimately what will win the imminent first space war. The Biden administration’s continued … [Read more...] about What Putin’s War With Ukraine Teaches Us About Space Resilience

[+] Armer/dpa (Photo by Nicolas Armer/picture alliance via Getty Images) On Tuesday, NASA officials at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) confirmed the first definitive evidence of water on the surface of the Moon, settling a decades-long debate about whether the substance was ice or simply hydrogen. This discovery has wide-reaching implications for future lunar settlements and exploratory missions in addition to some unexpected results for lunar astronomers. Scientists have previously suspected the presence of ice at the Moon's poles, but the data could have also been explained by reflective properties of the soil. In contrast, this study identified several characteristic signatures that give concrete proof that the Moon is host to a critical resource.
