Tags on Fintool Baba are added by hand, not generated automatically. That means when you see #FD on an article, it's there because the piece genuinely deals with that topic — not because a script matched a keyword. The result is a tighter, more useful reading list than you'd find on most aggregator-style finance sites.
Every article here is written with an Indian context in mind from the first sentence. Figures are in rupees. Examples use Indian banks, Indian cities, and Indian financial products. Tax references follow the Income Tax Act as it currently stands. If something changes — a new budget, a revised interest rate, a rule update from SEBI or RBI — we go back and revise the affected articles rather than leaving outdated information sitting on the page.
If this is your first time on a #FD page, the article at the top is a good place to start. It's placed there because readers consistently find it the most useful entry point — whether they're completely new to the topic or just looking for a reliable second opinion before making a decision.
