    ET’s Morning Brief Podcast is highly valuable in terms of understanding the current affairs. The quality of content really gives the overall understanding of the situation.

  • Brilliant all-star cast

    Ep 500 was a celebration of amazing journalists doing amazing things. Great camaraderie, deep respect for each other. Nice to get a ringside view of the process.

    I’d recommend videotaping and uploading as well. It may be audio but video complements it well.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Subhash Chandra’s Insolvency Maths
Q: So, how did we get here? And what does this case tell us about the value of a promoter's personal guarantee?
Shiram Subramanian explains that the 22,000 crore figure represents admitted claims tied to personal guarantees, not a direct liability on Subhash Chandra's personal wealth, because much of the debt was serviced by the borrowing companies and collateral, and the wealth of promoters is often tied to the business and its equity rather than personal assets.
Who Must File Their ITR by August 31?
Q: What are common mistakes to avoid?
Misclassifying trading income as capital gains, failing to report all sources, not reconciling records with AIS/26AS, and delaying filing can lead to defective returns, losses in carry-forwards, and penalties.
Who Must File Their ITR by August 31?
Q: Who should file by August 31st under the new rules?
Taxpayers with business or professional income who do not have a tax audit and whose gross receipts are within specific thresholds must file by August 31; salaried individuals with only salary income extend only if their category triggers the extended deadline.
How Prashant Kishor Shocked the BJP
Q: What explains Prashant Kishor's breakthrough in Bakipur despite a history of BJP dominance?
A combination of Kishor's ground game, targeted messaging against incumbents, and a reconfiguration of the urban voter base, coupled with sympathetic shifts among RJD and BJP defectors, helped Jan Suraaj capture a seat that had long favored the BJP.
LinkedIn CEO on AI Jobs, Agentic Hiring and the AI Slop Problem
Q: What role do AI agents play in the hiring process on LinkedIn?
Dan envisions agents handling administrative tasks to free recruiters for high-value work, with potential for career agents helping job seekers, and a system where agents can negotiate or assess fit between applicant and job for better matches.
