Editing error: A front-page report headlined “Splitting hairs on GST” (June 20, 2017) had incorrectly expanded GST as General Sales Tax . It should have been Goods and Services Tax .

In the graphic titled “Powerful strides” that was published along with the report, “Tangedco may post profit” (June 20, 2017, some editions), the figures corresponding to total revenue receipts and total revenue expenses for 2017-18 (budget estimates) got interchanged.

“Number theory” — the graphic that accompanied the report, “Low-profile Dalit leader tipped for the highest office” (June 20, 2017) — had a panel element that said the electoral college (for electing the President of India) comprises all Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha MPs and all the members of the 31 Legislative Assemblies. It is clarified that the electoral college comprises only elected members of the Lok Sabha, the Rajya Sabha and the 31 Legislative Assemblies.
