Description

"Till date" is a very common Indianism for "to date" in common English.

It's sometimes spelled with a single "l" or with an apostrophe at the beginning or end.

There are some phrases where it could be a false positive if just blindly flagged: "good till date" is used in finance and "valid till date" is used for a date when something expires.

Currently it is never flagged when the selected dialect is "Indian" but perhaps even in Indian English it's not always considered correct, in which case maybe there should be a setting as well, but I don't think that's possible yet.
