Effective cash position
Global tools (Causal, Mosaic, Founderpath) compute runway as cash ÷ burn. In India that under-states your real cash by 5–18% because GST input credit and customer TDS aren't in your bank balance yet, but they will be. This calculator includes them.
Runway (months) =
( Cash in bank
+ GST credit receivable
+ TDS receivable
+ Collectible AR )
÷ ( Monthly burn − Monthly revenue )Why each adjustment matters:
