Following a series of reductions in petroleum product prices since May 1, this marks the fourth consecutive relief, attributed to a decline in international oil prices. The new prices are expected to see petrol decrease by Rs9.28 per litre to Rs259.08 from the existing Rs268.36 per litre, and high-speed diesel (HSD) by Rs4.02 per litre to Rs266.20 from Rs270.22 per litre. This development is a promising sign for consumers who have been grappling with high fuel costs.

Donald Trump,senate We know that older voters, rural voters—Republican voters!—are disproportionately hit by Trumpcare. The Center for Budget and Policy Priorities lays it out. The losses would be larger for older and lower-income consumers, and lower-income consumers would also lose help with deductibles and other out-of-pocket costs. Consumers’ costs would probably increase even more than tax credits would fall, since the House plan would likely cause individual market premiums to rise.The impact would be even more severe for people in high-cost states. Consumers in 11 high-cost states would see their tax credits to purchase health coverage fall by more than $3,000 on average — or more than 50 percent. Here’s their high-cost states, and how much those residents stand to lose. And that’s just for the people buying private insurance on the exchanges! Look closely at those states—almost all led by Republicans, represented by Republicans in t...

PARIS (Web Desk) – The Paris offices of US Internet giant Google were raided by French police on Tuesday, as part of a tax fraud investigation. Around 100 tax officials entered Google’s offices in central Paris early on Tuesday morning, the BBC reported. Google is accused of owing the French state €1.6bn ($1.8bn; £1.3bn) in unpaid taxes. The tax arrangements of international companies have come under close scrutiny recently, with several being accused of using legal methods to minimize their tax burden.

Google’s European operations are headquartered in Ireland, which has some of the lowest corporate tax rates in the region. In January, it struck a deal with UK tax authorities to pay an extra £130m in tax for the period from 2005, but that deal was hea...
