ThelegalGuru research desk
Grounded legal research

The research desk for Indian tax & corporate law.

Every Bare Act, Rule, circular and ruling in one cited reader — with an AI that answers only from the loaded statute and shows you the exact section it read. Built for professionals who need to be sure.

Every answer cited to source Invitation-only expert authors Current — daily circulars & notifications No ads, no clutter
The library

Every statute, on one desk.

The Income-tax Act (1961 & 2025), the Rules, GST, reference works and case law — plus published law books in soft copy — organised by Act, free where the government publishes it, licensed where it's commentary.

  • Read like Kindle for law — search within a document, bookmark it, save your research.
  • Published law books — soft copy — commentary and reference titles (e.g. the Direct Taxes Ready Reckoner) as fully-searchable e-books you read right in the browser.
  • Bare Acts free — government works are open; you only pay for premium commentary and the AI.
  • Organised by Act — Income-tax, GST and more, each with its Acts, Rules, circulars and rulings together.

The reader

Read the Act. Ask the AI. See the source.

Open any Act and navigate it by chapter and section. Select a passage and ask the AI to explain, summarise or solve it — every answer is drawn from the loaded statute and points to the provision it relied on.

  • Grounded, cited answers — a guard withholds anything it can't tie to a section, because a confident wrong answer is worse than none.
  • Tap any §reference — jump straight to the exact Bare-Act provision.
  • Case law, in the reader — search judgments and open them alongside the statute.

Books, in the browser

Every commercial book — with its own AI.

Commentary and reference titles like the Direct Taxes Ready Reckoner open as fully-searchable e-books. Ask each book a question and it answers only from itself, cited to the page — so the reckoner explains the reckoner, never the wider web.

  • Buy the AI for the books you own — each title carries its own grounded assistant.
  • Search, highlight and save — every table, rate and threshold, one search box away.
  • Cited to the page — the same no-hallucination guard as the Act reader.
