Editorial review process

Every calculator passes through a 4-step review before publication:

  1. Formula sourcing โ€” traced to a primary source: RBI, CBIC, Income Tax Act 1961, WHO, ICMR, or ISO 80000. No formula is published without a verifiable reference.
  2. Output testing โ€” tested against 5+ known input/output pairs including edge cases. Cross-checked against official government calculators (incometax.gov.in, gst.gov.in, EPFO portal).
  3. Content depth review โ€” checked for formula accuracy, worked examples, FAQ quality, and India-specific context.
  4. Regulatory currency โ€” finance pages updated immediately after CBIC, CBDT, or EPFO announcements. Health pages updated when WHO/ICMR revise guidelines.

What does Mayra review on iCalcApp?

Mayra personally reviews every calculator and guide published on iCalcApp โ€” all 110 calculators and 37 blog guides as of June 2026. Her review covers four layers: the underlying formula against its primary source, the JavaScript implementation against hand-computed test cases, the written explanation for accuracy and clarity, and the worked examples against current Indian rates, slabs, and rules.

Review scope by category

Finance (her core domain): EMI and loan mathematics, compound interest, SIP/lumpsum projections, India tax calculations (income tax slabs, GST rates, HRA exemption under Section 10(13A), gratuity under the 1972 Act), and retirement instruments (PPF, EPF, NPS) โ€” verified against Income Tax Act provisions, CBIC notifications, EPFO circulars, and RBI data. Health: formulas verified against the published equations (Mifflin-St Jeor, Harris-Benedict, Navy body fat, Naegele’s rule) and WHO/ICMR reference ranges; health outputs are educational, not medical advice. Math & conversions: checked against ISO/NIST definitions and standard mathematical references.

What is the review process?

Each page goes through: (1) formula sourcing โ€” every equation traced to a statute, regulator publication, or peer-reviewed source listed on the methodology page; (2) implementation testing โ€” minimum three test vectors per calculator including edge cases; (3) editorial pass for clarity following the editorial policy; and (4) periodic re-review โ€” finance pages each April after Budget changes take effect, health pages when guidelines change, with the “Last reviewed” date updated on the page.

Credentials and certifications

MBA in Finance โ€” coursework in corporate finance, taxation, and investment analysis. BSc Mathematics โ€” foundation for the formula verification work across math and statistics tools. NISM certification โ€” National Institute of Securities Markets certification covering Indian securities regulation and investor protection norms. Mayra’s combination of finance domain knowledge and mathematical training is the basis of iCalcApp’s formula-first accuracy standard.
