Microsoft To Mandate 3 Days In Office From Jan 2026; Some Teams May Face 4-5 Days
Last Updated: Starting January 2026, Microsoft mandates a three-day office workweek for employees within 50 miles of its Redmond HQ. Some teams may need four or five days in the office. Microsoft Work-From-Office Rule: Microsoft is getting stricter on its work-from-office policy by making it mandatory for employees to come to the office for at least three days a week. The new strict rules will be enforced from January 2026, moving away from the flexible work policy being adopted by the tech giant since the COVID-19 pandemic. This new policy will directly impact the employees living within 50 50-mile radius of Microsoft's Redmond headquarters. According to a Business Insider report, some teams will be forced to show up in the office for a minimum of four or five days a week. The Business Insider report stated that the tech giant is set to announce the rules in September. However, employees will get several months to adapt to these new changes. Moreover, employees will be allowed to request extensions, though the criteria and process remain ambiguous. The decision aligns Microsoft with other tech majors revising remote work rules — Amazon now mandates five days in office, while Google and Meta require employees to be present three days a week. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Swiss Watchmaker 'Swatch' Apologises, Pulls Down Advertisement After Online Backlash in China
Last Updated: Swiss watchmaker Swatch apologised and pulled its ads in China after backlash over a model's 'slanted eye' pose, criticised as racist. Swiss watchmaker Swatch issued an apology and pulled down its advertisements across China, featuring images of an Asian male model after the company faced backlash over the model pulling the corners of his eyes up and backwards in a 'slanted eye" pose. The images for the Swatch Essentials collection were widely condemned online in the country, where many said the model appeared to mimic racist taunts about Asian eyes. In an apology posted in both Chinese and English on its official account on the Weibo social media platform on Saturday, Swatch said that it has 'taken note of the recent concerns" and removed all related materials worldwide. 'We sincerely apologise for any distress or misunderstanding this may have caused," the statement mentioned. It also posted the same apology on Instagram. Swatch, which also makes Omega, Longines and Tissot watches, is heavily exposed to China for revenue, with around 27 per cent of the group's sales last year coming from the China, Hong Kong and Macau region. Meanwhile, shares in the company slipped by as much as 2.7 per cent in early trading on Monday before paring losses somewhat. Revenue for the watchmaker slumped 14.6 per cent to 6.74 billion Swiss francs ($8.4 billion) in 2024, hit by a downturn in demand in China, where Swatch said it was seeing 'persistently difficult market conditions and weak demand for consumer goods overall". view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

18 pc slab to contribute lions share of GST revenue after proposed changes
Agency: PTI Last Updated: New Delhi, Aug 18 (PTI) The 18 per cent tax slab is expected to remain the major contributor to GST revenues if the Centre's proposal for a two-tier GST structure and a special 40 per cent rate is implemented, according to a source. At present, the Goods and Services Tax (GST) follows a four-tier structure with rates of 5 per cent, 12, 18, and 28 per cent. Food and essential items are either exempt or taxed at 5 per cent, while luxury and sin goods attract the highest rate of 28 per cent. The 5 per cent slab contributes around 7 per cent to total GST revenues, while the 18 per cent slab accounts for a dominant 65 per cent. The 12 per cent and 28 per cent slabs contribute approximately 5 per cent and 11 per cent, respectively, to the GST collection. The Centre has proposed to the Group of Ministers on GST rate rationalisation a 2-tier rate structure of 5 and 18 per cent for 'merit' and 'standard' goods and services, and a 40 per cent rate for about 5-7 goods. The proposal entails doing away with the current 12 and 28 per cent tax slabs. 'The 18 per cent slab will continue to account for a lion's share in the GST revenues as per the Centre's proposal. We expect volumes to go up and a consumption boost which will help improve the GST revenues from the current level," the source said. Once the goods and services are categorised as merit and standard, 99 per cent of the items in the 12 per cent bracket will move to 5 per cent, with the remaining moving to 18 per cent. Also, 90 per cent of the goods and services in the 28 per cent bracket will move to 18 per cent and only 5-7 items will go up to 40 per cent rate. The average monthly GST collection has risen from Rs 1.51 lakh crore in FY22 to Rs 1.84 lakh crore in FY25. GST, which subsumed over a dozen local levies and cesses, was rolled out on July 1, 2017. The number of registered taxpayers has risen from 65 lakh in 2017 to over 1.51 crore. PTI JD ANZ HVA view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
