Data sources, freshness and provenance
How to know where a number came from and whether it is still current.
Every figure on the site names its provider. Indian market data comes from NSE and Upstox; macro data from RBI and public open-data portals; global series from Yahoo Finance and FRED. A missing field is shown as unavailable, never estimated.
Provenance habits
- Check the as-of time and state badge.
- Use the Data Health page to see feed freshness.
- Report anything that looks wrong with the in-page issue link.
Key takeaways
- Every number should have a source and a timestamp.
- Stale or unavailable beats silently wrong.
- Report discrepancies; corrections are published.
