By type of question

Grouped the way you would ask.

For each question we know which official document answers it. The bar shows how often Bullseye's first search, run on the question exactly as typed, finds that document.

That is a strict test of search alone. Bullseye usually searches more than once before it answers, so an answer can still be right when the first search missed. Answer checks are counted separately. Open a row for example questions of each type.

What does the circular say?

e.g. What is the minimum cooling-off period a commercial bank must give a borrower on a digital loan, and can the bank charge anything if the borrower exits during it?

Where it falls short

The weak spots, biggest first.

The problems that cost Bullseye the most questions in this test, each measured on the same run. This is what we are working on.

  1. 01

    Orders and circulars can crowd out the Act or regulation itself

    Asked what the law says, search can return tribunal orders, FAQs or consultation papers that discuss a provision before the provision itself. Insolvency and company law questions show it most.

    Right document found for 4 of the 16 questions that show it

  2. 02

    An older version of the law can rank above the current one

    A draft above the final rule, a superseded circular above its replacement, or an overruled judgment above the one that overruled it. Search does not yet reliably put the version in force first.

    Right document found for 11 of the 19 questions that show it

  3. 03

    Questions asked in Hinglish do worse than the same question in English

    Part of Bullseye's search reads English only, so a question typed in Hinglish can miss a document that the English version of the same question finds.

    Right document found for 1 of the 6 questions that show it

  4. 04

    A well-known case can be hard to find by its popular name or citation

    Asking for "the electoral bonds judgment" or a neutral citation can return the documents that cite the case rather than the case itself.

    Right document found for 5 of the 9 questions that show it

  5. 05

    Near-identical RBI rules for different kinds of lender can be mixed up

    The RBI issues almost the same direction separately for commercial banks, small finance banks, co-operative banks and NBFCs. Search can return another lender type's version of the rule you asked about.

One answer, checked

How an answer is checked.

We open the document the answer cites and confirm it says what the answer claims, that every point the answer must make is there, and that none of the known wrong answers is.

What changed recently? · asked 4 Oct 2026

“what is the latest RBI amendment to the commercial banks acquisition and holding of shares directions and what does it change?”

Bullseye's answer (opening)

The latest amendment is the Reserve Bank of India (Commercial Banks – Acquisition and Holding of Shares or Voting Rights) Amendment Directions, 2026, RBI/2026-27/275, DOR.HOL.REC.No.235/16.13.100/2026-27, dated October 1, 2026. It took effect immediately (para 4) and was issued under Sections 12, 12B and 35A of the Banking Regulation Act, 1949.

It amends the Master Direction of November 28, 2025 (DOR.HOL.REC.64/16.13.100/2025-26). RBI also has a consolidated version of that Master Direction "updated as on October 1, 2026".

How we checked it

  • Cites the document that answers it, and the document says it: RBI (Commercial Banks - Acquisition and Holding of Shares or Voting Rights) Amendment Directions, 2026
  • Makes all 3 points the reference answer requires, written from that document's own text before Bullseye was asked
  • Gives none of the 2 known wrong answers to this question

Verdict: right and cited

How we test

Plain rules, the same for every question.

Where the questions come from

Each question is written from an official document in Bullseye's sources, along with harder ones: casual or misspelt wording, Hinglish, questions whose answer changed recently, and questions outside our sources. None comes from a user's conversation. We don't publish the full question set, so Bullseye can't be tuned to it; this page shows totals and a few examples.

What the right answer is

Before Bullseye is tested, each question gets a reference answer written from the document's own text, with a word-for-word quote. A reference is never changed to match what Bullseye said. When the law changes, a new dated reference is added.

What counts as right

Correct, cited, and the cited document actually says it. A correct answer with the wrong citation is partly right. Citing a document that doesn't say what the answer claims always counts against it, and is reported on its own.

What we don't test yet

Drafting and reviewing your own documents, and how Bullseye compares with a general AI assistant. Every number here is from questions answered from official sources.

Ask a question. Verify the source.

Every answer comes with the official document it's based on, so you never have to take Bullseye's word for it.
