[Inpycon] Pycon India 2018

[qua non]

"PSSI is closing from 7th Jul and will No longer be able to support finance
management for Pycon"

PSSI itself has not made any such official announcements as of now?

>From my talks with PSSI board members, I was under the impression that PSSI
was looking at ways to manage thing with the GST laws and was in talks with
Explara and other entities for the same. I had this conversation just
couple of days ago.

It would be easy to speculate and have heated discussion on this, please
let's wait for PSSI to officially post on this matter.
