A simple retirement benefit calculator app written in python with GUI specifically for West Bengal State Govt. employees (India). This app is not associated with Govt. of West Bengal. This app is for informational purpose only. This project is open source under GNU public lisence v3.0

1. Dynamic Report Generation : Previously you can only generate one report of each category and the next generated report will autometically replace the previous report. In the latest version this limitation is over. Now you can generate as many reports you want. All the reports will be saved in the reports folder in the main app directory.

2. Update Checker : In the latest release, an autometic update checker is added to the app. It will check for any new releases from GitHub api and notify you. Also you can check manually for any updates from the Help menu. (You will need an active Internet connection for that.)

3. Feedback Option : Now you can directly submit any feedback about the application from Contact menu.
