"Write a para about your progress." (people love abbreviations here)
"I need it by Friday itself." (saying 'itself' drives home the point that you can't operate on IST)
"You might be knowing..." (instead of 'you may know')
"Please make a PPT." (no one says PowerPoint)
"Do the needful."
"It is like that only."
"Let's chat." (means communicating via IM, not face-to-face or over the phone)
