Method 2 – Validate Online

The second way to determine if you have a valid copy of Windows 7 is to use the validation tool on the Microsoft website.
If you ever tried to download updates from Microsoft, you’ve probably noticed that sometimes your copy of Windows has to be validated before it allows you to start the download.
Well, you can use that tool independently of downloading an update by going to the following address:
Then click on the Validate link at the top. Make sure that you visit the site while in Internet Explorer, otherwise it will ask you do download a small program onto your computer in order to validate.
validate windows 7

Method 3 – Control Panel

The third way to check for genuine Windows 7 is to go to the Control Panel. Click on Start, then Control Panel, then click on System and Security, and finally click on System.

Then scroll all the way down to the bottom and you should see a section called Windows activation, which says “Windows is activated” and gives you the Product ID. It also includes the genuine Microsoft software logo.

Fee for PassPort Hiked


Procuring passport will be costlier from October 1.

The Government has decided to increase the Passport and related services fees from Rs 1000 to Rs 1500 under the normal category and from Rs 2500 to Rs 3500 under Tatkal scheme, a statement by the Ministry of External Affairs Ministry said tonight.
The Passport and related services were last fixed on March 29, 2002.
For Indian citizens living abroad, the revised fee would be $75.00 (from $40.00) and Euro 60.00 (from 48.00) for normal applications.
The statement said the hike was necessitated by considerable increase in the last ten years in inputs costs relating to establishment, capital expenditure, procurement of equipment, reimbursement to police authorities, payment to India Posts, printing of passport booklets, personalisation costs, IT expenses and contractual payment to service providers.
The current regime of Passport fee came into force in July, 1993 subsequent to the passing of the Passport (Amendment) Bill, 1992 which permits the government to fix the Passport fee on the basis of actual cost incurred on issuing of a Passport.

The union cabinet today hiked dearness allowance by 7 per cent to all central government employees


The union cabinet on Monday hiked dearness allowance by 7 per cent to 72 per cent of the basic pay for all central government employees.
The move will benefit about 50 lakh serving employees and 30 lakh pensioners. It will also mean an additional burden of about Rs. 7,400 crore a year on the exchequer, Rs. 5000 crore for the effective eight-month period in this financial year.
The new DA was cleared at a meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) this evening.
The hike will be effective from July 1, 2012, and employees will get arrears from that date. The dearness allowance was last hiked from 58 per cent to 65 per cent of the basic pay March this year.
The government periodically hikes the DA, which is linked to the consumer price index for industrial workers. The consumer price index, or CPI, which is based on movement in retail prices, soared to 10.03 per cent in August, from 9.86 per cent in July.
