Listen to Divya dialogue with Sidhant Kumar about data protection and your rights as a consumer in India.

The personal data protection bill has outstanding provisions in terms of notice, consent and requirements that it imposes on people who collect data. However, the complaint redressal mechanism still needs to be improved.

There needs to be direction and guidance on how to make it accessible to ordinary consumers who may or may not have access to legal representation.

Questions discussed in the podcast:

Q.1 As a consumer, what should I do, if I find someone misusing my data?

Q.2 Where is India heading with the new bill?

Listen to Divya dialoguing with Neha from CAxpert about basic challenges that companies face while accounting.

Q1. What challenges are the businesses facing and how can they make it better?

Q2. Is accounting expensive?

Accounting is not as expensive as we think. If we know what we need help in, accounting can be very reasonable. It used to be expensive ten years ago, as it was all on paper. Today there are a lot more options, especially because businesses have switched to cloud computing software.

Everything is now online. Apps like Google drive and dropbox can be used to store and share data. To track your payments you can use mobile apps like Expsenify or Walnut that link to your SMS and photos.

Nowadays software like Quickbooks or Zoho books allow you to see your numbers real-time.

Q3. What do people think accounting is?

People think of accountants only when GST or TDS are in the picture. They usually hire a freelance accountant when they want to get their taxes filed. Due to this your day to day transactions in the business suffer.

Q4. What are the things businesses don't focus on?

'Cash is King'

Businesses tend to not focus on cash.

Your revenue and sales could be skyrocketing but you need to maintain a healthy cash flow cycle. Things we should be thinking about are account receivables, account payables, debtor days and creditor days.

'Time is Money'

Businesses should incorporate timesheets wherein every employee fills how much time it took them to do a single task. As a result, this makes a business model more efficient and effective. Apps like Quickbooks allow you to track the amount of time it took to complete a task. Installing something like this saves on time and in turn on the money.
