Editorial Policy

No builder money

Brickplot accepts no fees, commissions, or payments from builders, developers, brokers, or anyone with a financial stake in a project's score. If you pay us, you are a reader.

Any analyst who has a financial interest in a project — owns a unit there, has a family member employed by the builder, or has any undisclosed relationship with the promoter — is recused from scoring that project.

How a score is computed

Every Brickplot score is computed by a fixed 11-axis formula. Analysts collect the underlying data — RERA disclosures, sub-registrar records, satellite imagery, survey responses — but the formula converts that data into a score automatically. No analyst can override the formula output.

Hard-cap tripwires fire automatically when a legal or regulatory red flag is present. They cannot be overridden or "balanced" by positive scores on other axes. The full list of tripwires and their score caps is published at the scoring methodology page.

Corrections and updates

Scores are recomputed whenever material new public-record data arrives — a new RERA QPR, a court order, a bank approval, a rating change. The date of last update is shown on every project page.

If a builder believes a score contains a factual error, they may submit a written correction request with verifiable public-record evidence via our Contact page. We review within 10 working days. If the evidence supports a correction, we update the score and note the change. We do not remove negative scores on request alone.

Readers can submit corrections too. If you have a public-record source that contradicts a published score, send it to corrections@brickplot.com.

No sponsored content

Brickplot does not publish sponsored editorial content, native advertising, or paid placements that affect project rankings or scores. There is no paid positioning. A project scores what it scores.

What a score is, and isn't

Brickplot scores are research tools, not investment advice. A score reflects what is in the public record today — RERA filings, EC, NCLT dockets, satellite imagery, bank APF lists. It cannot predict whether a builder will deliver on time, whether prices will rise, or whether the project suits your circumstances. Verify the underlying documents yourself — RERA portal, sub-registrar EC, municipal records — before committing money.
