a comedian once said, India me sab se bada achievement is to leave India

I left India because of the corruption of all political parties. They don't fight elections on the right issues. They fight over religion, caste, and division. Do I miss my country? Yes, daily. But Indian politicians need to do real stuff and stop corruption.

Most things Akshat said makes sense. Except - 1. Middle class will shrink: not true, middle class will continue to grow given the population growth and the fact that majority of population is young 2. If #1 is valid and true to happen, it is highly unlikely that the govt will increase personal income tax. This is evident also from the introduction of the 'New Income Tax regime' which has given tax relief to starter income ranges. 3. Leave India - as someone who has lived in UAE and US for 8+ years and then returned to India, I can tell you that the phrase "grass is greener on the other side" is very true. Stated differently, EVERY country in the world is going thru difficult times and there is no "perfect" country to immigrate to. As someone who may not have global experience yet, you won't know the challenges until you experience it first hand. For example, high/good paying jobs in UAE are far and few and likely you will will end up in middle income range with which it is quite difficult to sustain a family in the UAE. TL;DR: Make money in India and move from middle to rich class in whichever legal methods you wish to choose. Your lifestyle and living conditions will be as good or better than abroad.

here in rajasthan right now my grandfather is in private hospital and his bill was 2l and it was paid entirely by scheme started by rajasthan govt by inc govt 2 years ago. also in bjp manifesto it promised free 5l worth of private hospital treatment to all strata of people regardless of economic background age 70 and above. i agree there are negatives but there are some positives too which also needs to be highlighted.

One thing is sure the people who are paying taxes are getting nothing in RETURN! Basic facilities like Education and Medical services are not in place. Good amount of MONEY is looted by POLITICIAN.

When the govt says don’t panic that’s the time to run for the hills

Just a thought about what you said about moving to europe, “the taxes are higher, but facilities are more”. I am in Germany since last three years. Here the taxes are really higher and the facilities are charged separately. Like you will get very good public transport, but fares are higher. The roads are really good, but the maintenance charges and vehicle insurances will rip you apart if you own a car. The healthcare is not that great here, but they charge above 500 euros every month. This doesn’t again include all the treatments, you need to topup to get other illnesses covered. And being away from your home is another problem. Its hard to survive with the language here, its hard to make friends here 😢. Lot of issues like this are here as well. Like our grandparents says, grass is always greener on the other side😂

This certainly sounds good too, but I think it's still worth considering more reliable options like copy trading platforms such as Eledator, for example.

He is just saying the truth.... So Why everyone saying that he is spreading negativity.... He is speaking the facts

Many influencers are getting aggressive about all the issues related to government lately. Thats really a good thing for a healthy conversation on the governments actions. At least someone is asking questions, since opposition is not able to, or being restricted.

I'm from a medium or you can say a small District of Punjab and living in a walled colony in a two kanal house with my wife and two sons, we are a family of professionals, moved in around 29 countries including US, CANADA, UK, GERMANY, FRANCE, along with my wife, with a view to explore opportunity to migrate and settle there but after two or three weeks we got fed up and started feeling home sick as our life is a lot more comfortable and easy than in those countries, no pollution in our colony as 60% area is green, biggest facility is of servants and security which is not available in any other countries, so I just want to say that before deciding to move to an unknown country, explore the small towns and cities walled colonies where you can have a peaceful and comfortable life,thanks and regards from Bathinda, Punjab, INDIA

I was smart enough to leave in 2005 for my masters. Now I am a US citizen and do not repent a single day.

All those who are getting triggered seeing this video does not have any idea of where our country is really heading to, hats off to you for such useful video

I used to live in US and moved back to India. I am very happy in India. There were problems in US and there are problems in India. Once you have money , you realize money is not everything.

You die as a hero or live long enough to be a villain INDIA= You die in middle class or live long enough to see poverty - Crimson emperor

Thanks Akshat for such a insightful video...more power and courage to you ✨.

I didn't leave India because I was a millionaire. I left because I wanted to become one. Let that sink in.

Sensible, no nonsense, practical reading on India at present. Thanks for sharing your wisdom

Akshat you're spitting facts. But when you make such videos, you should have the courage to stand by your videos and not delete them when the certain political party trolls start attacking you online.

Truth is always hard to digest. He is accurate and he is right about everytbing

Appreciate the courage you finally spoke : leave India.. Make videos on HOW in context of non professionals

To The Point, Facts, Brilliant. Needs Guts and Knowledge to put out such videos. Kudos 👏🏼

I'm a taxpayer and It's the best, I see lower potholes, new bridges and underground around me, multi parallel metro lines, they deserve my money!

Your points makes sense. BUT you are advising people to run away seeing problems in their Nation. I hope there are people who have strong values along with being rational. The value to sit and solve the problems of the nation than running away. Overall I really liked the video. I got to learn a lot!!! Thank you!!

He is telling truth.myself getting 24 lacs and giving 5 lacs as a tax.reminjng 19 lacs.out of remining 9 lacs whatever i purchase minimum 18% to 28 % so on an everage 20% tax 1.8 lacs.remining 10 lacs if i purchase a car for 10 lacs i have to pay 28% tax which is around 2.6 lacs.so over all around 10 lacs I am paying tax to govt for 24 lacs earning.just calculate it will come around 42% tax i am paying..Still do you think we should praise givt and modi😂

I am currently visiting Europe and I must say things have changed so much here. Everything is expensive, the cities feel unsafe and I cant wait to get back home. I too pay a lot of tax but I think it is far better than living elsewhere

I was in US last 10 years and I came back with a savings of 5 CR which is enough for me and my next generation to live comfortably in India. With that 5CR I could have purchased only a 4 bhk home in USA somewhere outskirts of Bay area.

Aren't taxes high in foreign countries? specially Europe and UK many of my collegues are job less and trying to find multiple jobs to pay taxes and rent

Being an nri , I can say condition of outside countries gotten way more worse than India , we get far more safety and things back than other countries. India is doing far better , I repeat it’s way worse outside and I know more nris are coming back to India than ever but Akshay didn’t show that stat !! Trust the process , India is on a rise and growth also comes at a cost has happened for every developed nation so will happen to India as we are growing.

Please keep on posting this types of videos to guide ignorant people. I like this video. Thanks

Excellent video! Very well articulated. Thank you sir for all the insights.

That's a great video. You listed out the exact points why I left India. People in India have learnt to adjust A LOT and forgot to question their basic rights.

"Thulle pakad lete hai." Itna bada influencer itni straight language use karta hai to wo sirf Akshat hi ho sakta hai. I like his originality

My father pay 4000 tax before got salary and also have to pay taxes nearly 1.5 lakh per year, and in the return we got nothing. Nothing means nothing.

Bro let me correct you, HEALTHCARE is big problem in foreign countries as well . In comparison to UK And usa , india is much better and affordable

I changed my mind....you and your explanations are brilliant.🤩

Hard hitting realities impossible to accept by 80% of emotionally charged population sleep walking towards an economic disaster.A brilliant oppurtunity for clean Enterprenuers.

Even after paying so much taxes i don't go to government hospital ... Most of them dirty, crowded with dirty people, lazy appointment,no compliance..

I live in Germany as a student, its 20 months now being here and not even for a single minute I have seen a power cut, All houses has heaters even in toilet and kitchen, clean roads and surroundings, proper waste management, first class infrastructure and public transport and lot more. I always think why my country people are deprived of this who is the real culprit for our situation. Unless we bring some real reforms our country is not going to change. By the way I was thinking to come back but your video is making me think once more.

I encourage young people to study and work abroad to learn and earn money. But I came back from working in the UK for 15 years because I wanted to start a business in farming. India has many problems like corruption but if you really love India you will try and improve it like many do rather than just endlessly criticising its problems. Roads, electricty, security and ease of doing business have improved considerably in the city of Imphal in the last decade as an eye witness.

It's not just millionaires. The wealthy are migrating legally. There are thousands of lower income Indians from North India who are migrating ILLEGALLY to EU and USA! This year, even IITs struggled to achieve 100% placements.

Akshat please don’t bother about trolls, they will keep trolling you no matter how much sense you make. But for us your perspective is very important and please don’t deprive us from that because of useless trolls.

Really great sceptical analysis....this is the reality today😢

Very informative. Crisp and practical. You are a very good teacher.

Can’t thank you enough for this video. It takes real courage to show real picture.

Yes, sir, it's 100% correct. We haven't received any tax returns from the government. However, to earn Rs.100, we pay Rs.30 in income taxes. Then, when we purchase fuel worth Rs.100, we pay an additional Rs.60 in (SGST & CGST) taxes. Ultimately, we're paying 90% of the total amount in taxes just to obtain fuel worth Rs.40. This is just one example. Similarly, for purchasing items like rice, wheat, curd, salt, etc., everything is subject to taxation. Bringing tomatoes from farmland involves calculating the taxes paid at various stages: electricity usage EB taxable, farm land usage tractor taxable, fertilizers taxable, labor cost taxable, vegetable transportation fuel taxable, toll gate charges, market entry fees, and storage electricity charges taxable, but while our veg wastage is not accounted to deduct of taxes. As you mentioned, we also need to set aside funds for quality healthcare and education for our children, as well as for the care of our elders, which also involves paying taxes." Likewise, we are allocating a significant portion of our earnings to the government through taxes. "Taxes, taxes, taxes-all are draining our resources and pushing our poverty rate above 80% of the total population, India is 140th position in terms of per capita income." also this govt dosnt have any economists or collective idea about how to control and feed to 140 crore peoples.

Eye opener video for rationale thinkers but Andhbhakts will not be able to digest it

Absolute pure knowledge and facts. Keep it up sir 🙌🏻. Very good and informative video, awesome 👍🏻. Thank you sir!!

Till I was 33, I never had a plan to leave India - I worked in Government service for 3 years - and then I started thinking more about Culture, Work Culture, Private Practice of Radiology (I am a Radiologist), and Raising Kids - all such factors - I felt I was a misfit and is more complicated. I Left India and eventually settled in the USA - a long journey but totally worth it. My Migration is not based on the points discussed here, but - I agree with most of it in Retrospect. The last two points are brilliant - once you are a rationalist - You cannot understand the dominant population language there.

After listening to Askhata on the topic of migration i thought i should respond...i have travelled extensively be it US Europe Singapore on long term and short term as part of my career from India and fairly senior now. I had the opportunity to stay back as a NRI but decided to come back ..best decision of my life when i had children. I was one of first batches of computer engineering in 1991. 1. Migration to other countries will not solve all your so called quality of life issues. 2. Money is important no doubt.but happiness is a factor of many other aspects. 3. Life is not only money. It involves lot of other aspects family, near and dear ones, relations, your village, society. 4. All countries have equal share of problems in their own domain be it health care, inequality, opportunities. 5. Health especially mental health is very important. 6. Children education and their outlook of life is important. If your are obsessed with providing luxury your kids, u develop woke kids ..there could be exceptions. 7. Running away from problems is the easiest route. There are difficult choices but will be fulfilling. 8. India is changing and your definition or western definition of success and happines no longer a valid. 9. There are good things in other countries, you go and learn them come back and make a difference be it small one 10. You are just one among the crowd outside and you come across racists. 11. You are a alien immigrant in a foreign soil a cheap labourer. 12. Be my guest if it appealing to run.

Very true. People in 30% tax bracket work 3 to 4 months for Govt. In turn govt misuses tht money to pay ED CBI EC to raid opposition parties & poach mlas. This is hitting hard

Your video today is like - Akshat sunke flower samjha kya - fire hai mai 😂

Great sir, The best thing in you is straight forward to saying the things and very clear about vision.

Akshat you should share videos on how sad situation is in US/Canada and Europe. There are no jobs there also and along with that there is rampant crime/looting/shooting and racism. So you need to consider everything.

i left India 15 years ago. but every time when i visited India, i found India to be better developed in terms of brands and services. Actually roads are much better than what was there 15 years ago. I am referring to TN and Kerala. I don't know about other states. However, pollution and trash problems do exist and its pretty bad and also there are no footpaths on the roads. But overall, i think India has improved a lot and i see no point for people already in India to leave India.

simple plan: 1. pure term life insurance for bread-winner (risk-taker) with proper add-ons 2. Mediclaim for each family member (no family floater) 3. Emergency fund for minimum 6 months in simple FDs 4. Investment in yourself, index fund, other mutual fund SIP, directly stocks, gold, silver, real estate (open plot, agri land, no flat) etc... 5. Build minimum 2-3 income sources

I already left India. As time passes more and more ppl will realize the facts he has told is coming true. By that time it might be more difficult to move, because govt also will realize that the youngsters moving outside the coutry as a threat and will try to restric more. (Example by imposing high taxation for sending money aborad even for studies and health). Also Indian politics, people'1s sentiments and all the discussions are somehow getting connected to Religion, which is not a good sign for any courtry. Also back a decade ppl were movig out of india was just make more money and comeback. But now scenario is different, now majority is moving out to settle in other countries.

Solution to everything is to join your workshop

You've echoed my views and that of Nomad Capitalist kind... Good insights with right perspective and basis

Thank you for sharing this information!

This is one of your most daring video full of blunt reality and sharp insights. Kudos!👏🏻👏🏻

A very based video, good job. Plz clear the air around congress's wealth distribution as well and plz be unbiased on that topic.

All has to remember India is an agricultural country , learning agricultural science is sufficient as ultimate is food,why need to run or learn more toughest things forgetting easiest agriculture . agriculture can only make India wealthy as world need food

Hi @akshat... did you delete your last video on passive income sources?

Everyone knows the person behind the pixelated image.

Truth is a bitter pill to swallow!! Thanks for the insights Akshat.

Nobody "Leaves" India, they "Escape" India.

37 income streams video is now private please put it back again. I'm waiting. Couldn't watch it yesterday.

Brilliant topics picked

Amazing analysis this is all true 🙌

Very impartial information. Thank you so much sir

Absolutely disagree….I have businesses in many countries. One myth about Dubai and Europe, it is Tax Free or less Tax. Here everything is very costlier. India is still very cheaper and doing business in very easy and cheaper in India than Dubai and any Euro contries.

Thanks for the video akshat, atleast ur raising a concern on behalf of middle class people, Bhagwan acha karetu

Great analysis of the current situation.

here in South India, Airports are way more crowded than Railway stations.

Pessimist people see pessimistic scenario. Optimist see the scope.

Absolutely brilliant @AkshatZayn, just like all your other videos. As much as you rubbed the irrefutable realities on the audience, the last 2 odd minutes summarised it into a still optimistic and yet a realistic and achievable course of life and livelihood. Please keep up the amazing work you are doing.

Thank u for saying the truth 😢

Very well articulated Akshat. The salaried class pays taxes in excess of 30%, live way below their means so that they can save for the wellbeing of their kids. Then the govt says bhai you can't escape the rat race. You invest in something, pay the capital gains tax, buy anything pay GST, drive on roads pay toll, withdraw mutual funds pay tax, withdraw PF pay tax. We are reduced to slaves of the state. And now there are talks of capital gains tax to be on-par with nominal income tax rates. This will be the death blow for salaried class. All their live they saved living below their means and invest the taxed money in stocks, again pay more than 30% of the tax. Very soon 99% of India will be poor beyond imagination. Those who can emigrate are the lucky ones.

Massive respect to you for putting the truth out there, being genuine without being greedy for “benefits”. Amazing video ❤

Brilliant exposure of reality! The hard fact is ''Truth is always bitter''...Ouch !!

Keep up the good work.

The main issue here is the exponential rise in India's population. It cannot be addressed easily by any government. So as explained in this video, people should start moving abroad. At least it will help lessen the burden here.

Dear Akshat Srivastav, Very nice video, very informative for youngsters! They have to wakeup!!

Great video Akshat and timing of this video… It’s disheartening to see when there are so many burning issues in India which could be discussed during this elections from both the sides i.e. Political parties and citizens but what parties like BJP talk about is Hindu Muslim (e.g. Modi’s speech in Rajasthan today) even after being in Power for 10 years.. I think it’s not the fault of the political parties… they are selling what the demand is.. It seems no-one (Masses) cares about actual issues which can improve lives of the people.

Promotion by fear .... from 2014 to 2024 cost of studying has raised approx 40pc which almost 3.5pc per year which way more than the way indian economy has grown yoy. I find his facts as a way to create fear and in fear people will be tempted to buy his course. Fundamental question... when is he leaving India 😂😂😂😂

Why do you not join politics? As Gandhi, the father of our nation said, "be the change you want to see!"

I don’t know why people think he is being a pessimist these are all real problems i have personally noticed they are just facts..people not being able to see what direction our country is going is a bit scary how are they preparing for future if they aren’t even seeing the problems ahead?

It's still crazy to me that his videos get only half a million views max. His videos need to have a bigger reach in India to make a positive impact.

Very true, well explained

My father died in road accident in 2022. We called ambulance, he was alive that time in desperate need of oxygen ambulance didnt even had oxygen. We went to gov hospital for oxygen even they dint had it. And a private hospital was 94 km away in a city. He died before reaching hospital. If he had born in a developed nation he would have be alive. 1 year later my Nain died of cancer cause we couldnt afforde big private hospital. I love this country but it took my 2 most loved person.

Modi Sent IB and Police to my Home Now I am in Adelaide #Australia

truth should be said ...well done!!

Practical, pragmatic, rational, yet hard hitting facts…thank u for yet another lesson…❤❤

Does PPF make sense even today considering IDs are giving better returns? Tax-free but is it making sense in numbers?

Very Informative !!

Very good video Akshat. I am generally critical of your videos. But this was one of the best KZfaq video I have seen in long time. Pure hard hitting truth.

Well said Akshay ❤️

Many comments are proving that whatever Akshat has said is absolutely true.
