I’m no longer doing any business. I used to run a small e-commerce business, but I got busy with my studies and job, so I don’t have time for it anymore.
I’m planning to surrender/cancel my GST registration. I’ve been filing all my GST returns myself, and many of them have been NIL since I haven’t done any business for around 1 year.
I’m based in Mumbai.
Is GST cancellation through REG-16 fairly easy to do myself? Is there anything specific I need to take care of before applying?

And one more thing — do I have to give the sweet box to the GST officer one more time? 😂 Or is the whole process online now?
Would appreciate advice from anyone who has actually cancelled their GST registration in Mumbai.

I bought a Honda City and took a car loan at 18% fixed interest. It was my first time taking a loan, and honestly, I now realise I probably made a bad decision.
My current EMI is around ₹13,000, but I feel the principal amount is not reducing much because of the high interest rate.
I want to close this loan as soon as possible. I'm considering either:
Transferring the loan to another bank at a lower interest rate
Making aggressive part-payments
Somehow closing the existing loan early
Has anyone here transferred a car loan from a high-interest lender to a bank with a lower rate? Is a balance transfer actually worth it after foreclosure and processing charges?
What would be the smartest way to get out of an 18% fixed-rate car loan quickly?
Any advice from people who've done this would be appreciated.

Hi everyone,
I’m currently a 5-year BLS LLB student in Mumbai and I’m looking to start working in a law firm. I have zero practical experience so far, and I’m honestly a bit confused about how to get my first opportunity.
I’m interested in starting my career in corporate law, but I’m open to starting wherever I can learn and gain practical experience.
Could anyone working in the legal field please guide me on:
How should I approach law firms as a fresher?
Where can I find firms that are actually hiring law students?
Is it better to directly email firms/HRs or approach people through LinkedIn?
Can I realistically get a paid internship/trainee position with no prior experience?
Any tips on how I can improve my chances of getting my first opportunity?
I’m willing to learn and work hard. I mainly need some guidance on where to start and how to approach firms.
If anyone knows of firms in Mumbai currently looking for interns/trainees, I’d really appreciate a referral or lead.
Thanks!

Hi everyone,
I'm a 5-year law student and I want to become a corporate lawyer. From what I understand, the usual path is to intern at a law firm first and then eventually move into an in-house corporate legal role.
The problem is that I don't have anyone to guide me, and I'm honestly a bit nervous about where to start.
Could someone please explain the process?
How do I apply to law firms?

Where do firms usually post internship openings?

Is it okay to cold email firms?

What should I include in my resume if I don't have any internship experience yet?

What skills should I focus on to improve my chances?

I'd really appreciate any advice from lawyers or law students who have gone through this. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,
I'm currently a 5-year law student and I'm interested in building my career in an in-house legal team. However, I don't have any prior internship or work experience, and I'm finding it difficult to figure out where to start.
If anyone has any advice on how to break into an in-house legal role, what skills I should focus on, or knows of any internship opportunities or referrals, I would really appreciate your guidance.
I'm based in Mumbai and I'm eager to learn and gain practical experience.
Thank you in advance!
