Chapter 7 Note on Groups. Handy guide. (Groups on the internet) Concept of the groups:
We are the people involving ourselves in various activities. Social, economic, religion etc.. We are often communicating (personal talk, through pone, internet, etc..) with all these groups. i.e. social, official, professional, religion etc.
Generally one person can be a member of many groups. By birth one become the member of particular religion and even sub-religion. By profession one choose to be a member of trade association, institutions etc.. By employment one becomes a member of the union. By academic qualification one becomes the part of schools / college’s group (alumni). Personal friends circle, social relations etc are another example of the groups in which one is the member interacts. One also choose to be the member of one or another CLUB (karnavati,Rajpath any other) . Each group for the benefit of the groups publishes periodicals, arrange seminars, lunch/dinner, competition, sports activity, drama, etc..
On the INTERNET
Similarly on the internet many websites provide the facility of creating E-groups. The Yahoo and Google are more popular. The important thing to mention that on these sites becoming member is free. One has not to pay anything for the same.
Being the member of the particular group you will receives (as chosen by you) all the various mails posted by any other member to that group. It is like general talk by three or more persons in small gathering during recess, lunch hours. One person makes the query another is replying, third one is counter argued. Forth one may say he has circular / notification / case law / or any other facts. This is happened in small gatherings, where in the group the same is happened on inter-net.
But do not think that this is the gossip. Each and every group has its own subject matter. The members on these groups discussed the mattere related to that subject, sharing views, experience with each other. There are more than 100000 (yes lacs) groups on the yahoo and the google. For the various subject from A to Z category. Following is the gist from the google group page.

The basic intention of this article is to introduce the “groups’” concept to you as well as to invite you to become a member of the groups created for the Income tax people.

- If one is confused that, he knows that there were some case law for particular issue, just post your query to groups, any other member ( Most probably the Assessing Officer even CA,ITP) has answer will let you know the case law. It may happened that some one know that there is change in ACT / Rule, and issue will be tackled differently.
