Boilerplate

Short. StockYatra is a free paper-trading app built in Nepal. It lets anyone practise trading Nepal (NEPSE), India (NSE) and US stocks with virtual coins on a live-simulated market, learn from lessons in Nepali, Hindi and English, and compete in weekly leagues — with zero real money at risk.

Long. StockYatra is a learning-first paper-trading platform built in Kathmandu by Lacspace and available on iPhone, Android and the web. Users start with 10,000 virtual coins and trade 90 stocks across three markets — Nepal's NEPSE, India's NSE and the US — on a simulated engine anchored to real price levels, with real order mechanics: stop-loss, targets, leverage and short selling. Alongside the simulator sit 117 lessons with explainer videos in Nepali, English and Hindi, a moderated community for verified traders, weekly leagues and streaks, and a tracker for Nepal IPOs. StockYatra is an educational product only: it is not a broker, exchange or adviser, executes no real trades, and practice coins have no cash value.

Story angles

Four stories we can help you tell.

Built in Nepal, for the world

A consumer app designed and engineered entirely in Kathmandu, now used by traders in several countries.

Learning in your own language

Stock-market lessons with explainer videos in Nepali and Hindi — content that simply didn't exist for first-time investors.

Practice before real money

Why paper trading matters in markets where most beginners learn with their savings, and how a simulator changes that.

A trading community without the tips

A verified-only, moderated chat built around learning — polls, friends, mentions — in a space usually dominated by tip groups and scams.
