Editorial policy

How the information on this website is written, checked, kept current and corrected.

Last updated Indian law and procedure only

Purpose

People make serious decisions about property, family and money after reading legal information online. This policy sets the standard we hold our pages to.

Who writes and reviews

Pages are drafted from primary sources and reviewed by an advocate practising in the relevant area before publication. Each service page and guide carries the date it was last reviewed.

Sources

We rely on the text of Acts and Rules as published in the Gazette of India and on India Code, notifications and circulars of the Reserve Bank of India, the Income Tax Department, SEBI and other regulators, and reported judgments of the Supreme Court and High Courts. Where we name a judgment, it is one we have read. We do not cite statistics we cannot source, and we do not publish invented case studies or testimonials.

How we write

  • Plain English first, with the legal term alongside so you can search further.
  • The direct answer at the top of the page, detail below.
  • Clear distinction between what the law requires and what offices commonly ask for in practice.
  • State-level differences flagged wherever they affect the answer.
  • No promises about outcomes or timelines.

Updates

Pages are reviewed when the underlying law changes and in any case at least once a year. Significant changes in recent years, including the new criminal codes in force from July 2024, the 2024 changes to capital gains tax and the Income-tax Act, 2025, have been reflected across the site.

Corrections

If you believe something here is wrong or out of date, write to info@nrilegalsupport.com with the page address. We check every report and correct confirmed errors promptly, noting the new review date.

Independence

We do not accept payment for mentions or links, and pages are not sponsored. Recommendations to take advice are made because facts matter in law, not as sales devices.

Use of technology

Drafting and research tools, including software, may assist in preparing pages. Every page is reviewed and approved by an advocate, who is responsible for its accuracy.
