Contract Shield provides a suite of free, India-specific legal and financial calculators designed for founders, freelancers, HR professionals, and business owners who need quick, accurate answers to common legal questions — without paying a lawyer for every calculation.
Why Indian-Specific Legal Tools Matter
Indian employment law, MSME regulations, and tax compliance rules are complex and frequently misunderstood. A gratuity calculation done incorrectly, for example, can result in understated liability by lakhs of rupees — creating legal exposure when an employee eventually claims payment. Similarly, incorrect MSME interest calculations can leave SME vendors significantly underpaid.
Each tool in the Contract Shield free tools library is built on the actual current Indian law — Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972; MSME Development Act, 2006; Income Tax Act; and other relevant statutes — so the outputs are legally grounded, not estimates.
