How does the research process work?
Every article follows the same six steps, from primary document to dated update.
- Open the primary document: NSE and BSE filings, RHP or DRHP, SEBI, RBI, IRDAI and Income Tax Department notices, Gazette notifications and company releases.
- Record the source: every headline number is traced to where it came from. News sites, brokers and trackers are leads, not proof.
- Cross-check: figures are compared with one independent source, and conflicts are shown openly instead of averaged.
- Do the arithmetic: derived numbers are recalculated and labelled “my calculation” so you can check them.
- Stamp the time: volatile facts carry an “as of” date and time in IST.
- Update the same page: when a rule, date or number changes, the same URL is corrected and the change is dated.
The full method is on the research methodology page, and the site’s purpose is described on the About PositionalCalls page.

Is PositionalCalls SEBI registered?
No. PositionalCalls.com is not SEBI registered, and its content is educational only.
That means the site does not act as an investment adviser or research analyst. Nothing here is personal advice. If you need advice for your own situation, use a SEBI-registered professional. You can check registration on the SEBI website, and you can read circulars and investor-protection notices there as well.
How should you use this research?
Use it to understand the facts, the rules and the risks, then check the source before you act.
How are updates and corrections handled?
Every article shows an Updated line with a date and time in IST, and changes are logged in a Latest update box.
When a circular, price band, record date or tax rule changes, the same page is corrected and the change is dated, so you never have to guess which version is current. The Updated time is changed only for a real change, never to make an unchanged page look new. Errors are fixed on the same page, with the correction shown in the Latest update box.
How does the site earn money?
The site earns through Google AdSense display ads, which are labelled “Advertisement”.
Ads do not decide what is written. The site does not rank brokers, banks, insurers or funds by commission. Where a comparison appears, the criteria are stated in the article so you can judge them yourself.
