Editorial
How we write about your money
MoneyRadar covers Your Money or Your Life topics — tax, loans, investing, insurance. Google and readers should trust what we publish. This page explains how we earn that trust.
Who writes this
MoneyRadar is built by a small editorial and engineering team with a background in security research and quantitative analysis. We treat personal finance like a system that can be audited: every formula is unit-tested, every rate is dated, and every recommendation must survive a “would I tell my friend this?” check.
We are not SEBI-registered investment advisers. Content is for education and decision support — not personalised advice. For irreversible decisions, a fee-only registered adviser is worth the cost.
How we research
- Tax rules sourced from the Income Tax Department and Union Budget documents.
- Loan and deposit rates cross-checked against RBI publications and issuer websites.
- Mutual fund and investing guidance aligned with AMFI and SEBI investor education.
- Insurance comparisons prioritise IRDAI claim-settlement ratios over marketing copy.
Every calculator cites its sources on-page. See our full methodology for formulas and assumptions.
Updates and freshness
Rate-dependent pages carry a visible “last checked” date. We review tax calculators after every Budget, small-savings rates quarterly, and credit card fees when issuers change terms. Stale data is flagged, not hidden.
Conflicts of interest
No display ads. Partner links (labelled PARTNER) may earn a referral fee when you apply — but rankings are driven by the numbers that decide your outcome, not commission size. We do not sell editorial placement.
