Editorial and numerical policy

A wording change cannot silently change a tax result

The calculation is maintained separately from the explanatory copy. Any numerical change requires a current official source and independently checked expected results.

Primary sources first

Income Tax Department, CBDT, the applicable Act, Rules, notifications, circulars and CBIC take priority over commercial summaries.

Named scope

Every calculator states FY, AY, taxpayer, residence, income heads, regime assumptions, exclusions and last source check.

How calculations are checked

We test ordinary amounts, zero values, thresholds, marginal relief, invalid inputs and tax credits against separately calculated expected results.

Qualified review

Rule-sensitive tax calculations require review by an Indian chartered accountant or another appropriately qualified Indian tax professional before public use.

No invented experience

We do not fabricate filers, refunds, savings, approvals, professional credentials, government relationships or testimonials.

Corrections

A correction identifies the source, affected output, what changed and when the corrected calculation became available.
