Our mistakes, counted by month
Every rule here is read from rbi.org.in. This page counts the mistakes we have published corrections for. It is rebuilt with the site. It counts only what is on the corrections page, because that is the only record of mistakes we have. A mistake nobody has found is not on it. We say that plainly rather than print a rate we cannot prove.
22 corrections published, from 21 August 2026 to 3 October 2026. The site carries 18,663 plain-English points across 405 rule pages today.
By month
| Month | Corrections | Of what kind |
|---|---|---|
| October 2026 | 2 | 1 date or time, 1 wording |
| September 2026 | 5 | 2 date or time, 1 number, 1 who it applies to, 1 a claim beyond the facts |
| August 2026 | 15 | 4 date or time, 3 number, 1 paragraph number, 1 who it applies to, 2 wording, 3 a claim beyond the facts, 1 wrong content on a channel |
A month with none published means we found none, or found none yet. It does not mean there were none.
By kind, all time
| Count | Kind | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| 7 | date or time | A wrong date, day or time, or a stale time shown as current. |
| 4 | number | A wrong count, amount or figure. |
| 1 | paragraph number | A point pointed at the wrong RBI paragraph. |
| 2 | who it applies to | A page named the wrong kind of institution. |
| 3 | wording | A sentence said the wrong thing, or internal notes reached a public page. |
| 4 | a claim beyond the facts | A page claimed more than the facts behind it supported. |
| 0 | label | A wrong Must Read, Good to Know or For information label. |
| 1 | wrong content on a channel | A channel carried content the edition did not approve. |
The kind of each mistake was chosen by the person who wrote the correction. No program guessed it from the words.
Every correction, newest first

What this page cannot tell you
- Mistakes nobody has found. They are not here. One person reads this site after it publishes; machines check it before.
- RBI documents we missed. Not counted yet. The sources table shows the newest document read from each RBI page.
- A rate. We do not divide 22 by anything. The right bottom number is not known, so no percentage is printed.
The same numbers, for a machine: mistakes.json.
