Me, after getting impressed by Raghav Chadha โค๏ธ casually Googling his education and qualifications to restore faith

100% agree with you At least someone sensible in the parliament who understands this problems of middle class people

Raghav - you are the only MP I have seen in the last 12 months talk about the middle class boiling families under taxesโฆ Thank you for raising these concerns. I wish our politicians were as sensible as you are and raise the real ground reality related issues

@gs_salavedu I am happy, atleast someone is addressing my issues here.

at least someone raising investor concerns, yes retail investors are also quite affected due to current high taxation

@raghav_chadha ji you have dropped some solid ๐ฅ truths in Parliament today. Miracles do happen as this is LITERALLY the "only" good thing AAP's done : "raising the vital LTCG point" !

Finance Minister is Nirmala Sitharaman. Dont expect anything good for Stock markets from her. Instead coming budgets LTCG and STCG will only keep increasing. See below, even after listening to all complaints, she still later increased LTCG and STCG rates๐ค

STCG rate should be 10% LTCG rate should be 7.5 % Then watch Nifty Skyrocket๐

Dear @nsitharaman maโam.. this is the view and voice of crores of tax payers.. kindly reconsider decision on LTCG/STCG.. not only it will bring relief to crores of tax payers but will also attract foreign cash flow .. ๐๐ป

๐จ BREAKING NEWS | PARLIAMENT & MARKETS ๐จ ๐โก๏ธ๐ MP RAGHAV CHADHA FLAGS โINVESTOR IMBALANCEโ, SEEKS TAX RELIEF FOR INDIANS ๐๏ธ WHAT HAPPENED Speaking in the Rajya Sabha during the 2025 Appropriation Bill debate, AAP MP Raghav Chadha called for immediate tax relief for domestic investors, warning that Indian savers are carrying the market while foreign money exits. ๐ THE NUMBERS THAT SPARKED IT โข๐ โน1.58 lakh crore pulled out by foreign investors this year โข๐ฎ๐ณ Domestic & retail investors stepped in with record buying โขChadha: โIndiaโs markets are being stabilised by Indian households.โ ๐ธ KEY TAX PAIN POINTS RAISED โขโ 12.5% LTCG tax without indexation โขโ 20% Short-Term Capital Gains tax โขResult: Higher burden on long-term Indian savers ๐ข WHAT CHADHA DEMANDED โขโ Restore indexation benefits โขโ Raise tax-free savings limits โขโ Tax incentives for 5-year fixed deposits โขโ GST benefits passed on to consumers โขโ Boost bank deposit growth โขโ Asset Tokenisation Bill ๐ Blockchain-based fractional ownership in assets like real estate ๐ง THE BIG MESSAGE โForeign money can leave.

Parliament is now being asked: Will policy catch up? #RaghavChadha #InvestorRelief #IndianMarkets

Words of wisdom. The only sensible MP in the parliament who actually raises real issues. This high taxation is the fundamental reason for migration of rich from India, exodus of the FII capital, which leads to forex outflows, weaker currency and more tax burden on the people.

Leaving politics aside, agree with him. Valid concerns to be addressed before it's late. Hardly another 26 trading days for budget. Let's hope for some sense to prevail

This is a very thoughtful and researched speech, The government should think on these lines, Just like the government gave a boost to consumption, a boost for investment is also needed. #ltcg #stcg #stt #investment

Being a CA, I expect you to be aware of double taxation issue in Dividend Income. This should also be corrected , and raised in Parliament.

Kudos to you for bringing this up in Parliament. Indian retail investors are being harassed with unnecessarily high taxation and frequent rule changes. Hope @FinMinIndia and @nsitharaman ji are listening.

@raghav_chadha even though I donโt agree with your party supremo on various issues, you have proven to be a pleasant surprise. In every parliamentary session, you raise serious issues and also offer solutions. Well done.

Very nicely put, thanks a lot @raghav_chadha for raising this issue

Great to see tax debate in Parliament today. More of thi is needed.๐๐

This is how 'sensible' discussion should be held. Thanks so much for bringing forth such relevant details and that too in a respectful and factual manner. Feel proud that we have such politicians. I also wish to hear your views on the freebies doled out to win elections.

Hmm, because his party invested heavily

Looks like @raghav_chadha ji is about to join BJP. Just like Shashi Tharoor, he is also talking sensible progressive things. People do such sensible talking only when they are about to join BJP.

Thank you for raising the concerns of Indiaโs minorities - the taxpayers of India. We need more discussions like these in the Sadan, instead of endless debates centered around the NehruโGandhi.

STT alag karwao aur short-term gain tax

Wish this simple logic is understood by the decision makers ๐

Inko Behns bakri ke example se samjhao, Ese padhe likhe tarikke se nhi samjhenge yeh ๐ ๐

Raising indexation in LTCG isnโt populism! itโs sound economics. Kudos to @raghav_chadha for flagging this in Parliament and to the team that did the homework. Long-term investors needed this voice.

This is why @AamAadmiParty is needed. Raghav is an AAP Rajya Sabha MP.

Higher capital gains taxes may be discouraging risk capital and influencing FII outflows. Retail investors, whoโve stayed invested and weathered the grind, merit some breathing space here.

Small investors ๐ญ๐ญ

Good to see this issue being raised. Tax reform is much needed for investors long term.

Well said!

If someone makes an FD (Fixed Deposit) for more than 5 years, the customer should be given a tax rebate. There should be tax incentivization. The tax on Short-Term Capital Gains (STCG) is too high, it should be reduced if we want to encourage investment. @raghav_chadha ๐ฅ

This discussion deserves to stay alive before the Budget, not after itโs announced โ when decisions are already locked in and feedback becomes meaningless.

To pay for lower capital gains taxes close the loopholes for large investors through mutual funds. If you want to know more please contact me. [email protected]

High time for the Govt to take action. Extremely needed. We have been appealing for the same for a long time.
