Which should you choose?

  • You screen stocks every week: Tickertape Pro. 247 filters, 100+ key metrics per stock and data export.
  • You read Moneycontrol daily: Moneycontrol PRO. 99% fewer ads, PRO newsletters, research reports and Financial Times access for ₹499 a year plus GST with the coupon.
  • You want trading calls: Moneycontrol Super PRO. Neither PRO nor Tickertape Pro includes calls.
  • You invest in US stocks: Tickertape Pro. Pro cuts its US brokerage from 0.20% to 0.15%.

Is Moneycontrol PRO worth it?

It is worth it if you already read Moneycontrol and want 99% fewer ads plus SWOT, MC Insights and research reports. The coupon price is low. Check four things first:

  • List prices are higher. Without the coupon, PRO is ₹999 a year plus GST.
  • In-depth coverage is narrower. MC Insights, Forecasts and SWOT cover 250+ key stocks, not every listed company.
  • No refunds. Cancel at least 2 working days before renewal.

Is Tickertape Pro worth it?

It is worth ₹2,999 a year if you use analyst forecasts, red flags or the 69 Pro-only filters every week. Free users already get 178 filters and 8 key metrics per stock. Pro has no trial and no refund on cancellation, so use the free plan first.
