Dear Members,
In the fresh guidelines for the lockdown in Tamil Nadu for the month of September, all
places of worship, hotels and resorts are allowed to re-open. People can travel across Tamil
Nadu without e-pass and public and private bus transport within districts shall resume, the
new lockdown guidelines state. To sustain the economy, Government is trying to open up
with relaxation in rules and at the same time trying to control spread of Covid 19.
Businesses are experiencing major impacts due to Covid 19 and the lockdown. Even the
much established firms have to relook at how they can manage and operate their business
including revisiting their business plan. It has become challenging for most businesses to
keep their financial wheels turning during the lockdown period due to less revenue churn
and the general uncertainty in the global financial environment.
It is expected that India’s growth rate in FY20-21 will be down to 2% from a range of 4.7%-
5.2% as was predicted earlier by the rating agency ICRA.
So, during such testing times, entrepreneurs will have to adapt to a new set of rules and
be mindful of the aspects like Tracking expenses against the revenue status, Checking the
feasibility of the business model, Plan policies for next 3 months / 9 months, to alleviate
risks and to survive the slowdown caused by the impact of COVID19.
Stay safe and Stay Healthy !

e-commerce and digital marketing - Vijayawada (online) from 11th to 14th august 2020
Owing to the positive response to our facebook advertisement campaign, Andhra Chamber of Commerce with the support of Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom, South Asia organised the third batch of online workshop on Digital Marketing for the members of Vijayawada from 11th to 14th August 2020.
Digital marketing has already proved an important partner for SMEs aiming to sustain—and grow—their businesses. Social media offers the chance to reach incredibly targeted audiences for incredibly reasonable prices. Email marketing allows you to personalize and engage with customers on regular—automated—terms. And SEO / GoogleAds have both helped even the smallest SME bump higher in search engine rankings.
So, the Chamber considered that this training would be useful for the members. This workshop was aimed at providing online awareness to business men / women who are interested to learn and upgrade themselves by understanding the digital world which has completely revolutionised the way how business is done today. Whether the business is big or small without digital intervention nothing happens. With all happening at the click of a button it becomes ever more necessary to be skilled digitally to effectively run today’s businesses.
Post COVID 19, the industries/MSMEs have to get ready for a NEW NORMAL that’s where these practical digital skills are going to play a key role in helping them develop their business further. New Normal scenario is urging every one to be tech savvy and hence, this programme would be
very useful for the industry members to market their products/services digitally without getting into this pandemic.
The workshop covered modules pertaining to Google adwords, Search Engine Optimisation & Social Media and was held from 11th to 14th August 2020 through online. After the training there was a mentoring session for one week followed by a feedback cum follow up session on the 22nd August 2020 through online.

webinar on workPlace assessment for safety and hygiene (wash) a scheme by Quality council
of india on the 17th august 2020
As we are all aware, Covid 19 has brought lot of changes to business environment in the country. Continuous lock down has forced complete shut down of many factories, industrial establishments, commercial establishments, offices etc. Rebooting or restarting of operations after a long shutdown itself will pose safety hazards to work place, in turn affecting the health and safety of the employees, customers, other stakeholders and communities at large too.
Considering the series of work place hazards, accidents that are reported regularly in the last few weeks resulting in loss of lives, loss of property, injuries caused to the workers, communities etc, its important for business establishments to follow the guidelines prescribed above to ensure safety at work place. Occupational Health and Safety initiatives are the need of the hour at work place. Experts believe that shortage of skilled staff and poor maintenance practices are contributing factors.
To address the industry’s need, Andhra Chamber of Commerce in cooperation with Consultants Consortium of Chennai and TUV Sud organised a webinar on Workplace Assessment for Safety and Hygiene(WASH) on the 17th August 2020 at 4 p.m. jointly with TUV Sud South Asia and Consultants Consortium of Chennai to sensitise the industry members about this Occupational Health and Safety Scheme.

He explained the procedure and time taken for the assessment under WASH Scheme. He said that that though the scheme is not mandatory, it would be ideal for the industries to take up this assessment to be safe.
Mr.Srikanthan, Secretary, Consultants Consortium of Chennai presented on the Roadmap to implementation of the scheme by the industries. He also presented the role of the consultant in the implementation of this WASH Scheme.
1. Hand holding the customer and its team right from beginning till end of certification
2. Assisting the customer in preparation of all documentation(Manual/SOP/Guideline/Risk assessments/Business continuity plan etc)

dt 05.03.2020 for 2017-18 has been passed
disallowing the claim of exemption for non-filing
of ‘C’ Forms. The Officer seems to admit export
documents in support of the claim of exemption
if the same had been filed, but proceeded to reject
the claim for the reason that the same were not
filed at the time of earlier assessment completed
on 21.03.2019. Government Advocate fairly
admitted that impugned assessment has no legs to
stand and the same is liable to be quashed. Hence,
the impugned order is set aside, matter is remitted
back to the AO. M/s.Akshara Inds Ltd., vs AC,

2020 Dt: 18.08.2020
rEctification: Though the provisions of Section
84 of TNVAT Act, do not envisage an opportunity
of personal hearing, it goes without saying that for
fair disposal of a matter, an assessee should be heard
in person, all the more in a case where assessee
has specifically sought for it. Commissioner’s
orders in Circular No. 7/2014-BB1/3589/2014 Dt
3rdFebruary,2014 was also not followed in this
matter. Hence, the impugned assessments and

novo by the AO. M/s.Jansons Inds Ltd vs STO,

specifically sought an opportunity of personal
hearing, which request has not been taken into
consideration. Even assuming that such request
had not been made, it was incumbent upon the
Officer to have called upon the petitioner to appear

India is a consuming nation. By its very nature,
Indian economy is structured in such a way that
it would import more than its export. At least, in
the short run of about 5 to 10 years, the situation
would continue to be so. Perhaps, scheme like
AtmaNirbhaan succeed, the situation might
change. Further, as India continues to integrate
itself in the global supply chain, imports would
constitute significant part of the Indian economy.
Therefore, it goes without saying that business
enterprises would have to know not only the
sources of import of goods but also the procedural
aspects of imports.
So, what do we import mostly?
Import Management has to take cognizance
of three important aspects namely, procedural
compliance, amount of duty to be paid and how to
save on duty. Of course, it comes by practice and
by adding knowledge over a period of time. Let us
take procedural compliance first.
The first and foremost in import management
is finding out Importability of the product. The
importability or otherwise of the import product
can be found in schedule I of the Exim Policy. The
Policy fixes the import products in 3 categories
namely:
1) Prohibited
2) Restricted
3) Open General Licence (OGL) or Freely
importable
The import policy can be seen chronologically
as ‘before 1992’ and ‘post 1992’. The period
subsequent to 1992 can be termed as path breaking.
It is hailed as era of liberalization. As I am writing
this article in my office room, all the things that
Shri. R R Padmanabhan Chairman, Foreign Trade and Skill Development Sub-Committees of the Chamber.
ImportManageMent
15
I see, lights, furniture, laptop, coffee mug, books,
stationary, almost all of them were not permitted
to be imported in to India before 1992. Yes, they
were draconian days to do business. Much water
had flown post 1992. One can import almost
everything freely. Yet, we cannot, as import policy
practitioners assume such blanket view as far as
the policy is concerned.
First let us see what are Prohibited Items?
There are about 60 items that are prohibited
for imports. They range from Ivory to Nuclear
reactors.
The next one is restricted category.
By virtue of this category, Government restricts
the import of these goods into country. It means
that the Government allows import subject to the
permission / approval. In India, Director General
of Foreign Trade coming under the control of
Ministry of Commerce and Industry issues this
licence subject to certain rules and regulations.
It is very important to keep watching the list of
restricted category whenever one imports for the
first time or after a long pause because one may
be in trouble at the time of custom clearance.
Customs would never allow clearance if the item
is under restricted category.
One question that would be pertinent to ask: what
if the item is restricted on the date of arrival in
India but was free at the time of shipment from
abroad? Such cases are covered under transitional
provisions in terms of para 1.05(b) of Foreign
Trade Policy 2015-20.
1.05 Transitional Arrangements
(b) Item wise Import/Export Policy is delineated
in the ITC (HS) Schedule I and Schedule II
respectively. The importability/ exportability of
a particular item is governed by the policy as on
the date of import/export. The date of import/
export is defined in para 2.17 of HBP, 2015-
20. Bill of Lading and Shipping Bill are the key
documents for deciding the date of import and
export respectively. In case of change of policy
from ‘free’ to ‘restricted/prohibited/state trading’
or ‘otherwise regulated’, the import/export
already made before the date of such regulation/
restriction will not be affected
Take the case of Power tillers. Import of Power
tillers was brought under Restricted category by a
notification dated 15th July 2020. But a client of
mine brought Power tillers and bonded them much
before this date. After much deliberation and after
citing the above provision on the Foreign Trade
Policy, the clearance was allowed.
The concept of Promissory Estoppel works here in
these cases. But the same cannot be said in case of
revenue laws like Income tax or customs or GST
for Promissory Estoppel does not apply.
The third category is Open General Licence
or (OGL). It is residual clause. It means that
whatever the goods uncovered by Prohibited and
restricted categories fall under this category.
So, better be aware!

Part 2 of 4
I want to share an interesting case study that was done at Harvard over a period of about 35 years, spanning 70 to 80 countries. The topic undertaken for study was: What differentiates great personalities like Thomas Alva Edison, Isaac Newton or Mahatma Gandhi with other normal people in the world? As a species, we are all bestowed with the same hardware and neural network which means we are all equal at birth. But what distinguished
the above men as different and great from among others as they grew up? Was it their ability to re-write their inbuilt software or was it in their mode of thinking? For example: if I give you iPhone 10 and feed IPhone IOS which belongs to version 9 or 8; in all probability it will crash or work very, very slow. Which means you are not getting the best out of the hardware that has been given to you. It is like buying a Ferrari and then driving in a bumper to bumper traffic at 2 kms / hour.
Article by Mr. S. Prakash
Da re to be Free
Eventually, they did point out why these people were far different, far better and far more evolved than many of us. The result of the case study - Great personalities are unique and different because their expansion of consciousness and knowledge was huge. Also it is just not the bookish knowledge but it encompasses all that manifests from inside of themselves too.
Continued…
18
Power of asking Questions!
Another interesting aspect of the study is truly startling. The disparity in expansion of consciousness and assimilation of knowledge between the ordinary and the extraordinary is due to the latter’s unique ability to ask questions, to explore and seek answers. Apparently it looks so simple but yet extremely difficult to practice in day to day life. When apple fell down on Newton’s head, he was curious enough to ask and probe;Why
is the apple falling? Why is it not going up? Why should it fall down? And that led to the defining moment, the ensuing discovery of ‘The Theory of Gravity’.
In fact, all of us do keep asking questions, but only mundane repetitive questions. What is the business today? What is the billing? What is the collection? Why is it my staff is not performing well? Why is the pandemic bothering us? What to do in this pandemic?
Albert Einstein said, “If a human being thinks once a year it’s a great achievement”. James Williams, also known as the father of philosophy, said, “People confuse thinking with reorganization of thoughts; we are either reminiscing or hoping for a better future;and thinking cannot happen unless you ask questions”.
So, Dare to be free! Apparently it’s your ability to know that ‘knowing’ can come only by asking questions. How many times have you asked an original question? A question that would turn you inside out? Will I achieve as much as Einstein or Vivekananda in my chosen field? Why am I not yet reaching the summit of Mount Everest like Tensing Norgay and Edmund Hillary did?
When we were toddlers and young kids, we were naturally curious and inquisitive, but ironically our parents and teachers dissuaded us from asking probing questions... may be for reasons that they themselves could not find logical answers that would convince the young minds and felt embarrassed. The question could be as simple as “Why does the Sun rise in east?”, but how many of us can answer it in the process of rediscovering ourselves in terms of our understanding of the functions of the celestial bodies? Answers for such questions may have multiple dimensions, from the perspective of a theologist or a scientist or an astronomer or an educationist or a teacher or a mathematician, the answers can vary. So adults
curtail the probing curiosity of the children and prod them into a cardinal direction. Things are no better in school where their creativity is again snubbed and they are trained into rote learning in order to score high marks and shine forth as outstanding students. The result is, the naturally derived creativity and curiosity get nipped in the bud and as adults, we are afraid and don’t know to ask questions that will elicit valuable information.
Mind and Heart need to work in unison for you to harness their power!
There are two aspects when it comes to asking questions – Brain is the first aspect. The unfolding of the brain manifests what we call as ‘Mind’ and looks into multiple consequences. Second aspect that defines freedom is the ability of the ‘Heart’ to display guts and dare out.
The power of the Subconscious Mind! - To Unleash success, happiness, prosperity, and peace.
How many of us really know how to use the power of the mind? The mind has multiple layers.
19
Consciousness space is the awakening state. And below this lies the subconscious wherein the entire definition of what we are as a Human Being is continuously being made up. For the conscious mind the entry point comes from the physical senses - the sense of touch, seeing, taste, smell, hearing and things like that. Through this we construct our mental model of life. But unfortunately or fortunately there is a passive black box that is lying far below all this, waiting to be tapped, which in turn will trigger questions and this, is the power of your subconscious mind.
How many of us have really understood the power of the subconscious? How to tap into it? How to make best use of it? Many of us have multiple levels of understanding. The conscious mind works by receiving inputs from the five senses. Whereas for the subconscious mind there is only one input that is nothing but ‘THINKING’ and hence it works irrespective of the five senses. Hence I say
Dare to be free or Sapere audecomes from your ability to think, and is the de facto ability of the subconscious mind and we need to continuously program as per the need.
Each day the human mind is said to generate nearly 60000 to 10000 thousand thoughts, which might vary from individual to individual and we can put the average as 80000 thoughts or so for each person. Each thought is a veritable seed waiting to germinate and grow as a tree in a person’s life. Research has proved that almost all people have Neutral Thoughts that make 50% of the 80000 thoughts.
For example, I am standing in the queue in a Bank. I have an option of either withdrawing or depositing money or going up to the counter and coming back without doing anything. If you go to the counter and just come back then it’s called a neutral transaction.
Neutral thoughts have no impact on the construct of your subconscious, which means that they are like seeds being thrown on solid ground which will not germinate or in any way give a life force to a tree out of it. Which means 50% potentiality of our ability to unfold into a future, great beings like Einstein, is lost.
If we look at the remaining 50%, i.e., 40000 thoughts which we have, they would help us to construct our mental model so that we can go on to become what we want to become in life. If you have sufficient money in your personal life as
well as in your bank deposit, would you deposit or withdraw? If you are smart enough why would you withdraw? You would rather deposit but people in day to day life tend to withdraw.
WITHDRAW here refers to negative thinking which is nothing but thoughts like – I can’t ; I won’t ; I don’t know how I would survive this pandemic crisis ;I am really afraid.
Simply put, all negative thoughts can be bundled together under two headings – Doubts and Fears - I doubt I cannot do it. I have a fear it may fail to happen. Finally, 40000 thoughts that are actively being used are nothing but 39500 seeds of fear and lack of belief that you are sowing into the fertile subconscious soil and continuously nourishing them. Imagine what is likely to surface out of
your subconscious at a later point of time. Who is to be blamed - The creator, the God, or the circumstances? Or the person who sowed the seeds that are sprouting now as weeds? And we are the same ones complaining that the world is not giving us roses. Fortunately, there is still a glimmer of hope.
The rest of the 500 thoughts that you have in a day are what is known as positive thoughts. Positive thoughts, in simple terms, are thoughts like – I can; I will; I am capable of; I will surely do. Fundamentally they boil down to just two categories – Hope and Self-Relief. Hope that the next moment will be better.
