Editorial Policy
Last updated: July 2026
General Info is committed to producing accurate, independent, and reader-first content on personal finance, investing, and technology. This editorial policy explains how we create, review, and update our content.
1. Editorial Independence
Our editorial content is written independently and is not influenced by advertisers, sponsors, or affiliate partners. The views expressed in our articles reflect our own research and analysis. Advertising relationships do not influence which topics we cover, how we cover them, or what conclusions we reach.
2. Content Standards
All content published on General Info must meet the following standards:
- Accuracy: Facts, figures, and data are sourced from primary sources including SEBI, AMFI, RBI, NSE, BSE, Ministry of Finance, and company filings.
- Clarity: Financial and technical terms are always explained in plain language with Indian examples.
- Completeness: Articles cover the topic from multiple angles — definition, formula, examples, comparison, and practical use.
- Currency: Time-sensitive content (NAV data, IPO GMP, interest rates) is updated regularly. Each post carries a published and last-updated date.
- Fairness: We present multiple perspectives on contested financial topics and do not favour any fund house, broker, or investment product.
3. Sources and Research
We rely on primary and authoritative sources including SEBI circulars and regulations, AMFI data and mutual fund fact sheets, RBI publications and press releases, NSE and BSE official data, company annual reports and filings with stock exchanges, and government of India budget documents and notifications. Where third-party data or estimates are used, they are attributed clearly.
4. Corrections Policy
We take factual accuracy seriously. If a reader identifies an error, we review it promptly. If the error is confirmed, we correct it and note the correction at the bottom of the article with the date of correction. We do not silently alter articles without disclosure. To report an error, email us at contact@aksharsoftsolutions.com.
5. Affiliate and Commercial Disclosures
General Info uses affiliate links in some articles (for example, links to Zerodha’s account opening page). When you click such links and sign up for a service, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content or recommendations. All affiliate links are clearly labelled.
6. Not Investment Advice
All content on General Info is for educational and informational purposes only. Nothing on this website constitutes personalised investment advice, financial planning, or a recommendation to buy or sell any security, mutual fund, or financial product. Always consult a SEBI-registered investment advisor before making investment decisions.
7. AI-Assisted Content
Some articles on General Info are drafted with the assistance of AI tools. All AI-assisted content is reviewed, fact-checked, and edited by a human editor before publication. We do not publish AI-generated content without human oversight.
8. Contact the Editorial Team
