Best free stock screeners in India, compared (October 2026)

The best free stock screener in India for fundamentals is Screener.in, because its free account lets you write custom queries on ten years of financial data. Chartink is the strongest free technical scan builder of the tools here, Finology Ticker's free query screener covers the most ratios (1,200+), and Tickertape is the easiest to click through.

Tapetide is our product. It ranks fifth here: it has free ready-made screens, but no custom formula language on par with Screener.in. We checked every free plan on the vendors' own pages on 24 October 2026.

#How we ranked them

We ranked only what each screener gives without payment, from the vendors' own pricing pages, feature matrices and help articles on 24 October 2026. Custom query power ranked highest, then data freshness, then free filter depth. Finology Ticker has the largest free ratio count but ranks lower because it needs login and its stock pages show 5 years of data. Vendor counts of filters and ratios are their own figures and are not counted the same way. Tapetide is our product; email support@tapetide.com if anything here is out of date.
