Fact-Checking Policy – WhyShareIsDownToday.in

Last Updated: January 29, 2026

At WhyShareIsDownToday.in (https://whyshareisdowntoday.in/), our primary mission is to provide the “why” behind stock market volatility with technical precision. Because financial decisions impact the lives and livelihoods of our readers, we follow a rigorous, non-partisan fact-checking framework led by our founder, Amit Roy.

1. The Hierarchy of Verification

We do not rely on single-source reports or social media rumors. Every article on a falling share price follows a three-tier verification process:

• Primary Sources (Priority): We prioritize original filings from the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI), official BSE/NSE exchange disclosures, and company-published Press Releases.
• Secondary Sources: We consult audited financial statements and quarterly earnings transcripts to verify technical claims regarding revenue or debt.
• Tertiary Confirmation: Reports from recognized financial news agencies are used only for additional context and must be cross-verified against at least two other reputable sources.

2. Technical Accuracy and Methodology

When analyzing why a specific sector or share is down, we apply established financial principles:

• Contextual Evaluation: We examine macroeconomic shifts, such as RBI interest rate changes, and sector-specific developments like raw material price hikes.
• Algorithmic Verification: If we discuss valuations or technical indicators, Amit Roy personally audits the mathematical logic to ensure the data is grounded in financial reality.

3. Correction and Transparency Standards

Transparency is our defense against misinformation. If an error is identified:

• Timestamped Notices: We issue a clear “CORRECTION” or “UPDATE” notice at the top of the article detailing what was changed and the reason.
• Human Oversight: While we use digital tools for organizing data, no article is published without final approval from a human editor to ensure the tone remains professional and factual.

4. Grievance Redressal (IT Rules 2021)

In compliance with India’s digital media ethics code, we have established a formal mechanism for addressing concerns:

• Grievance Officer: Amit Roy
• Email: sumitt998877@gmail.com

5. Commitment to Neutrality

We are dedicated to financial literacy, not advocacy.

• No Speculative Tips: We strictly avoid providing buy/sell recommendations.
• Ad Independence: Advertisements displayed on our platform do not influence our editorial decisions or our fact-checking process.
