- Official data only. Every national figure comes from a Government of India source (PIB releases, ministry annual reports, replies in Parliament, RBI data published through PIB), linked against the year it describes. Where three years are not available from an official source, we show what is verified and say so.
- UP policies from Invest UP. Incentive figures are taken from the policy pages and documents on invest.up.gov.in/policies. Superseded policies (for example the Data Centre Policy 2021 or the Export Promotion Policy 2020-25) are not presented as live.
- Real photographs. Images are photographs from Wikimedia Commons under Creative Commons licences, credited below. No AI-generated images are used.
