I am at 25 LPA now and my aim is to get in FAANG what all i need to get in my bucket to crack that (or atleast improve my chance of getting in ), please guide me .

Anyone has any idea , how good is mba from upgrad? ( Liverpool or deakin or IU Germany ( 90 ects)).
I don't want to leave my job , that's why wanted to do an online MBA. Will the degree will matter in India or in abroad.

Okay finance lawyers. I don't understand this issue. Client says books show we're highly profitable but we have no way to pay our tax liability.... Well where the hell did tbe money go ? Client also claims that they are only taking a small portion of the revenue as profit. I don't understand how your books can be different than reality.

I joined a later stage startup as a corporate strategy “manager”. I put manager in quotes as there’s no one else in strategy. It was fun the first 6 months when I helped raise equity and create an initial 5 year plan, but for the past 2-3 months I’ve been essentially doing FP&A work. What kind of opportunities are out there after this one?

Also, do most properties have restrictions on renting out a basement or guest house on the property? Or is this only specific areas that would have a clause in the mortgage agreement prohibiting?
