Grievance redressal
A real human reads every grievance within 48 hours. Resolution within 30 days as required by the Digital Personal Data Protection Act 2023 and the IT Rules 2021.
1. When to file a grievance
File a grievance with InvestingPro when you believe we have:
- Mishandled, lost, or wrongly shared your personal data (DPDP Act 2023, Section 13)
- Published an article that misstates a verifiable fact about a product or regulatory rule
- Routed an affiliate “Apply Now” click to the wrong destination, or charged you a referral fee that you weren't told about
- Failed to respond to a previous correction request within the 48-hour acknowledgement window (see /corrections)
- Violated the IT Rules 2021 (Intermediary Guidelines) in any way
For factual corrections to specific articles, the faster path is /corrections (48-hour acknowledgement). This page is for the formal grievance channel, used when the corrections process has not resolved your concern.

4. Escalation matrix
If our resolution is not satisfactory, you may escalate as follows:
| If your grievance concerns | Escalate to |
|---|---|
| Personal data / privacy | Data Protection Board of India once notified under DPDP Act 2023. Until DPB is operational, file via MeitY grievance portal. |
| A specific bank/lender we link to | The bank's internal Ombudsman first, then the RBI Integrated Ombudsman (cms.rbi.org.in). |
| An insurance product or insurer | The insurer's grievance cell, then IRDAI Bima Bharosa. |
| A securities/mutual fund product | The AMC or broker, then SEBI SCORES. |
| A regulatory-grade complaint about us as an intermediary | File via the Public Grievances Portal (CPGRAMS). |
InvestingPro is an information and comparison platform — we are not the entity that approves a loan, holds an insurance contract, or buys mutual fund units on your behalf. For disputes with the product's actual provider, the provider's own grievance channel is the primary route.
