What the free and paid tiers include
Last reviewed: 25 May 2026
The two-tier model
Markov ships in two tiers:
Free
- NIFTY and BANKNIFTY index signals — live, push-notified.
- Read-only access to your own journal and stats.
- No KYC needed.
Paid
- All six production strategies on per-stock signals, delivered live with push notifications.
- Coverage scales by tier — from the top 10 NSE stocks by market cap (Starter) up to the full ~760-name large-cap universe (Premium).
- Performance summaries and journal export.
- Requires SEBI-mandated KYC + client agreement e-sign before activation.
Why a paywall exists
Running a multi-strategy quantitative stack across the full NSE universe — five-year backtests, daily data refresh, live scanning, SEBI-compliant document retention — has a real running cost per subscriber. The paid tier funds the per-stock surface; the free tier exists to give every user a feel for the product before they decide.
Pricing
Current plans are listed in detail on the pricing page. Plans start at ₹300/month at the time of writing — see the live page for the current numbers.
What you get out of the free tier
Plenty. The index signals (NIFTY, BANKNIFTY) are the same product quality as the paid feed — same methodology, same publishing pipeline, same SEBI compliance. The paid tier doesn't upgrade the free signals; it extends the surface to individual stocks.
What we don't do
We don't gate the journal, the disclosures, the stats, or any SEBI-mandated regulatory content behind the paywall. Those stay free forever.
