Trustworthy legal intelligence starts with knowing where the data comes from. This ledger lists every external data source behind Lekha, the licence we use it under, and the attribution that licence requires — with a link to the source and to the licence text. We index official law and link to the official copy; we don't re-host it. Last verified 2026-08-02.

Visit the sourceLekha's curated registry mapping each cited Act (title, year and section pinpoint) to its authoritative source. Statute pointers go to the official India Code repository; regulator-administered Acts point to the relevant regulator (RBI / SEBI). We never fabricate a deep-link handle we cannot verify.
