A free, independent Indian financial market dashboard — built for retail investors who want clean, fast, no-paywall access to market data.
Bazaar Watch is an independent project run by a retail investor based in India. It is not affiliated with NSE, BSE, SEBI, or any brokerage firm.
We built this because good market dashboards were either paywalled, cluttered with ads, or required a login. Bazaar Watch is none of those things — it is free, open, and focused on speed and clarity.
The site is maintained as a personal project. All analysis published here is the author's independent view and does not constitute financial advice.
We use publicly available data feeds and embed charting tools. Below is a complete breakdown of what data comes from where:

Note: NSE and BSE direct APIs block cloud server IPs. Yahoo Finance is used as the primary reliable data feed for all Indian index prices. Data may be delayed by 1–15 minutes depending on source. Do not use this data for high-frequency or intraday trading decisions.
We believe in being upfront about what this site is and isn't:
Data delays: Most prices are delayed 1–15 minutes. We are not a live exchange feed. For real-time execution data, use your broker's platform.
No option chain data: NSE blocks server-side access to live option chain APIs. We display PCR and Max Pain estimates from available data.
No personalisation: We do not store your portfolio, watchlist, or any personal data. There are no accounts.
Uptime: The backend runs on Render's free/budget tier. Occasional cold starts (10–30 second delays) may occur.
All market analysis articles on Bazaar Watch are original, independently written content. We do not accept paid placement, sponsored articles, or advertiser influence.
Articles represent the author's personal analysis and research. They are clearly labelled as analysis, not financial advice. We encourage readers to cross-check information and consult a SEBI-registered investment advisor before making any financial decision.
Not financial advice. All content on Bazaar Watch — including data, charts, analysis articles, and market summaries — is for informational and educational purposes only. It does not constitute investment advice, a solicitation to buy or sell securities, or a recommendation of any kind. Investing in securities involves risk. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Always consult a SEBI-registered investment advisor before making investment decisions.
Bazaar Watch is a one-person project. If you spot a data error, a broken feature, or have a suggestion, the best way to reach us is via the Market Discussion section on the main dashboard.
We read all comments and genuinely appreciate feedback that helps make the site better.
