Many rules related to your everyday life are going to change from the beginning of the new year i.e. January 1, 2021. These include Fastag, GST, Gas Cylinder, Insurance, Check Payment, Calling, Whatsapp, Price of Trains etc. If you ignore some rules then it can also harm you. However, in some places, you will also benefit. From 1 January, the positive pay system (positive payment system) will be applicable for checks paying more than Rs 50,000. Apart from this, the prices of cylinders will change from 1 January. However, LPG prices have increased 2 times in December, now it has to be seen whether the oil companies increase the price of cylinders in the new year? Let's know about these rules.
1 will change the mode of payment by check
Positive Pay System is an automated tool that will check fraud by checking. Under this, the person who will issue the check will have to re-inform the date of the check electronically, the name of the beneficiary, the recipient, and the amount of the payment. The person issuing the check can provide this information through electronic means such as SMS, mobile app, Internet banking, or ATM. After this, these details will be cross-checked before check payment. If any irregularity is found in the check, payment will not be made and the bank branch will be informed about it. Banks will apply the new rule to account holders in case of all payments of Rs 50,000 and above.
There will be a change in the prices of 2 cylinders
Oil companies fix LPG cylinder prices on the first of every month. That is, there will be a change in the prices of cylinders from 1 January. However, instead of raising prices on December 1, oil companies raised prices on December 3. So far, LPG prices have increased twice in December. Companies have raised the price of cylinders by a total of 100 this month. Now it has to be seen whether the oil companies increase the price of the cylinder in the new year.
3 Term plan policy will be available on less than 1 January premium
From the new year i.e. January 1, you will be able to buy a simple life insurance (standard term plan) policy for a lower premium. Indian insurance regulator IRDA had directed insurance companies to introduce a standard term life insurance after introducing a standard regular health insurance plan called Arogya Sanjeevani. Following the same instructions, insurance companies are going to launch a simple life insurance policy from 1 January. In the new insurance plan, there will be an option to buy a term plan for a lower premium. Also, the terms and the amount of cover will be the same in the policy of all insurance companies.
4 will change the way of submitting GST returns
The government has introduced a scheme for filing of quarterly returns and monthly payment of taxes (QRMP) for small taxpayers under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) system. Taxpayers whose annual turnover has been up to Rs 5 crore in the last financial year and who have submitted their October GSTR-3B (sales) returns till November 30, 2020, are eligible for the scheme.

9 vehicles will be expensive from next month

While the prices of TV panels have increased by 200 percent, plastic has also become expensive due to rising crude prices. Due to this, Panasonic India, LG, and Thomson have decided to increase the price of their products since January. Soni said that she is taking care of the situation right now.
