Hi,
I have joined ACTI a month back in Kolkata in L9. I wanted to opt for Company Car Lease policy just to save TAX but finding it too complicated.
I had raised queries to payrole and they have replied with a suggestion to think twice before opting for this benifit.
What do you all suggest, who have already opted for it?Accenture

Only do it if they are truly into it. Mine did it for a bit and then got bored of it. Lot of work for the parent aswell, outside of dealing with agent, Coogan account set up. You have you take them everywhere any day of the week, arrange for their school work package for the days they are on location. Don’t want to put you off, but you and the child need to be ready for the commitment. Good luck with it all
Thanks for the response. Just curious how much did they end up doing / earning over what period of time?
Rate depended on the gig, but to give you a sense of numbers it was between 1400 and 1800 per day (circa 6 hours, due to mandatory breaks) for commercials. Stills/photos were a little less. This was 4 years ago, so the rates may be higher now
$1800 a day 4 yr back thats crazy i guess i am in wrong career
Seriously. That’s great. Is that after the agent fees?
Yes
Important to remember the kid is 8 and doesn’t know much yet. I’d say let the kid be a kid as this can take a toll on their emotional well being in the long run
So true. It’s a lot to put on a young mind and if they get a lot of gigs it does get disruptive to a ‘normal’ life, or at least one similar to their friends.
