How we work

Editorial principles.

The rules that decide what ships, what doesn't, and how we keep things honest.

  • Free, forever

    No paywalls. No premium tier. No ads gating answers. Every calculator, every data page, every guide stays free.

  • No sign-up

    No account, no login, no email capture. Open the page, get your answer, leave.

  • India-native math

    Numbers in lakh and crore. FD compounding at the RBI quarterly standard. Tax in old and new regime. Loan EMI with the actual EBLR / RLLR reset behaviour. State-wise bank holidays under the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881.

  • Sources cited

    Statutory claims (LTCG / STCG rates, DICGC ₹5L cap, TDS thresholds, RBI repo, PMAY income bands) are anchored to the source Act, circular, or section – and dated. Bank rates are verified against each bank's own deposits or loan page on the date shown.

  • Freshness is visible

    Every guide shows when it was last updated. Every rate-list page shows when each bank's rate was verified. Every holiday data page shows when the year's data was checked against the official circular.

  • No financial advice

    PaisaMath provides educational tools and reference data. Calculator outputs are illustrative; for personalised advice, consult a SEBI-registered investment adviser or a mutual fund distributor. See the disclaimer.

Who built this

A small team, in Bengaluru.

PaisaMath is built and maintained by a small editorial and engineering team based in Bengaluru. We track RBI MPC announcements, NSE / BSE / MCX trading circulars, and Union Budget updates monthly; bank deposit and loan rates are re-verified quarterly; bank-holiday data is checked against the official RBI matrix every year.

We're not a brokerage, a mutual fund distributor, an aggregator platform, or a paid lead-generation site. There's no business model that depends on you signing up, opening an account, or buying a product. PaisaMath exists so that the everyday financial math Indians need to do – what's my SIP worth in 15 years, what's the EMI on a ₹50L home loan, is the market open today, when does my bank close for Diwali – can happen in one quiet, free place.
