Guys, I got an offer letter from Tata Consultancy
Few observations I have where I need your suggestion.
1. Fixed Basic is only 18% of CTC. I think the only benefit from this is lower Retirals deductions.
2. There is one "Personal allowance" that is almost 70% of the BoB. Any benefit from this on tax?

This morning my assistant asked whether “[name] GmbH” was a person or a company 🙃
Regarding TOA/TOC, can’t you send it out to doc services?

Some are competent, some are incompetent, some are lazy (regardless of competence). Avoid the incompetent ones.
For the others, you should be showing your appreciation/bribing them with flowers, chocolates, lunch, movie tix, etc. They will like you, prioritize your work, help you out of a jam, and cover for mistakes.
They should know how to or be proactive in learning. In the fall, I took a class that was meant for staff regarding TOA/TOC, so I could know for EMERGENCIES.
Good plan!
See, stuff like that. 😂😂 Come onnnnn.
I am in a small satellite on the other side of the country, so I don’t have that luxury or I am not aware of us having one.
We use Best Authority (software) to generate TOA automatically. I always do my own TOC because I like to format it in a certain way and see how it looks on the page. Some secretaries are amazing (mine can do everything that a legal assistant does and is invaluable at doing my time, handling expenses, booking travel etc) but many of them are unnecessary expenses who will be cut during the next downturn.
