Tickertape alternatives for Indian stock research (October 2026)

The best Tickertape alternatives are Screener.in for free fundamentals, Trendlyne for screener depth and analyst estimates, StockEdge for mobile scans, and Tapetide for AI-assisted research with a 7-day free trial. All four have a free plan.

#Why people look beyond Tickertape

• Forecasts are paywalled. Analyst ratings, forecasts, scorecards and red flags need Pro. Free users see 8 key metrics.
• 69 of 247 screener filters are Pro-only. The other 178 are free.
• No free trial and no refunds. You pay before you can test Pro.
• Unlimited saved screens and custom filters need Pro.
• Its MCP research tools are US-only. Tickertape MCP is free. For Indian stocks it answers questions about your own holdings only.

Tickertape is still a strong app for beginners. If it works for you, there is little reason to switch.

#Is Tickertape Pro worth it?

Tickertape Pro is worth paying for if you use its analyst forecasts every week. If you mostly screen on fundamentals, free tools cover that.

Prices from tickertape.in/pricing, checked 24 October 2026. Its pricing FAQ mentions a 20% discount on the annual plan.

• Pro unlocks: analyst ratings, price, revenue and EPS forecasts, 100+ key metrics (free has 8), red flags, data export and no ads.
• Screener: 69 more filters and unlimited saved screens.
• US investing: brokerage drops from 0.20% to 0.15%.
• The catch: no free trial, and no refund if you cancel mid-period.
• Pay if: you want forecasts in a well-rated app (4.44★ Android, 4.49★ iOS).
• Skip if: you only need fundamentals. Screener.in and Tapetide are free for that.

#Switching from Tickertape

1. List your watchlist symbols and re-add them by hand; we found no direct import.
2. Recreate your top two screens on the new platform's screener first.
3. Run both for a week before cancelling Pro, since Tickertape does not refund mid-period.
