Our 6-Step Editorial Process
Primary Research
We research from official sources — RBI circulars, SEBI guidelines, Income Tax Act, IRDAI filings, and product issuer websites. Never secondary blogs.
Data Collection & Verification
Interest rates, reward points, fees, and tax slabs are cross-checked against at least two independent sources. Calculations are run independently.
Writing & INR Examples
Guides are written in plain English with real ₹ calculations. Every comparison includes salary-based or income-based scenarios Indian readers can relate to.
Editorial Review
A second team member reviews for accuracy, completeness, and clarity. Misleading claims, unsupported comparisons, and jargon are flagged and revised.
Fact-Check & Publish
Final fact-check against current data. Last-updated date is set. Article is published with source references, internal links, and FAQ schema for rich results.
Ongoing Updates
Published articles are reviewed when underlying data changes — new FD rates, budget amendments, product launches. Updated articles show the revision date prominently.
