About TickerPlant

TickerPlant

TickerPlant Limited is a Mumbai-based financial data and news vendor providing real-time market data terminals, news feeds and analytics to Indian market participants. Founded in 2005 and originally a wholly owned subsidiary of Financial Technologies (India) Limited, the company has established itself as one of the leading domestic content providers in India's financial information services industry. Its flagship products — the MarketView Terminal, MarketView Pro and MarketView Mobile — deliver streaming market data from Indian and global exchanges alongside financial news and analytical tools to banks, brokerages, mutual funds, corporates and media houses. Its official website is tickerplantindia.com.

Founding and Corporate History

TickerPlant was founded in 2005 in Mumbai, Maharashtra, as a financial content venture of Financial Technologies (India) Limited — the exchange-technology group founded by Jignesh Shah that also created the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX). As a wholly owned subsidiary of Financial Technologies, TickerPlant was conceived as the group's information-services arm: where the parent built trading infrastructure, TickerPlant would supply the market data, news and analytics that traders need to use it. The company is headquartered at the FT Tower on Suren Road in Chakala, Andheri East, Mumbai — the group's own technology campus — and company profiles estimate its workforce at around 199 employees.

The MarketView Terminal

TickerPlant's flagship product is the MarketView Terminal, an integrated market data, news and analytics platform. The terminal offers streaming market data from major Indian exchanges — the NSE and BSE across the capital market, futures and options, currency derivatives, debt and corporate bond segments — as well as global exchanges and over-the-counter markets. Alongside prices, it carries financial news and information, analytical tools and charting, all presented in what the company describes as a user-friendly and flexible format. The terminal is aimed at professional users — dealers, analysts and fund managers — who need a single screen combining data, news and analytics at competitive prices relative to global terminal vendors.

Product Suite: Pro, Mobile and Data Feeds

Around the core terminal, TickerPlant has built a product suite for different user segments. MarketView Pro extends the terminal offering with enhanced professional features; MarketView Mobile delivers market data and news to smartphones for professionals who need markets on the move; and the MarketView Data Feed provides ultra-low-latency data feeds for institutions that want to pipe TickerPlant's content into their own systems, websites and applications. The company's adoption of open technology standards allows its content to be integrated with rich features and analytical tools on third-party platforms as well as its own, supporting customised delivery and display of data.

Real-Time Data and News Coverage

As a content provider in the financial information services industry, TickerPlant integrates and disseminates ultra-low-latency data feeds, news and information. Its coverage spans Indian equities, derivatives, commodities, currencies and debt, plus corporate data and macroeconomic information. The real-time market data, news and market information is distributed on TickerPlant's own state-of-the-art platform, on third-party websites and on mobile phones. The company emphasises the resilience of its data management systems and the work of dedicated teams of information and technology specialists in ensuring standards of data security, completeness, quality and authentication — the unglamorous infrastructure on which trading decisions depend.

Clientele Across the Financial Industry

TickerPlant serves a diversified clientele across the Indian financial sector, including banks, financial institutions, corporate houses, mutual fund houses, insurance companies, educational institutes and high-net-worth individuals. This breadth reflects the company's positioning as a domestic alternative to global data vendors: Indian institutions that need professional-grade market data and news but at price points suited to the local market. The company states that it enjoys a high level of confidence among this client base and describes maintaining that trust as its constant endeavour.

Vision, Mission and Corporate Philosophy

The company articulates its vision as being "an organisation of choice for the financial markets, providing financial information, news and analytics while delivering superior value to all stakeholders." Its mission is to empower financial markets by providing a high degree of reliable, real-time, customised information — enabling winning decisions — and to offer a unique customer experience through seamless service across markets. The stated aim of providing a "one stop solution" covering a wide range of asset classes captures the company's strategy of bundling data, news and analytics rather than selling any one of them in isolation.

Position in India's Market Data Industry

TickerPlant operates in a competitive Indian market-data landscape alongside domestic rivals such as Cogencis (now part of NSE Data & Analytics), Accord Fintech and global vendors' Indian operations. Its origins within the Financial Technologies group gave it early access to exchange connectivity and technology expertise, while its independent product development — the MarketView range — established it as a brand in its own right among dealing rooms. For Indian brokerages and institutions, domestic vendors like TickerPlant have historically offered an important middle path between free delayed data and premium global terminals.

The Andheri East Technology Base

The company's base at the FT Tower in Chakala, Andheri East, places it in one of Mumbai's major technology and business districts, close to the group's other operations and to the brokerages and financial institutions of India's commercial capital. The campus setting reflects the company's identity as a technology-driven content business — part data vendor, part software company — rather than a traditional newsroom. Company contact information, including its customer service lines, is published through its corporate profiles and website.

Technology and Low-Latency Data

In the market-data business, speed is a product feature. TickerPlant's emphasis on ultra-low-latency data feeds reflects the demands of professional trading, where milliseconds can determine the value of a price quote. The company's resilient data management systems are designed to ingest exchange feeds, normalise them, and redistribute them to terminals, websites and mobile devices with minimal delay. Dedicated teams of information and technology specialists maintain this pipeline, alongside the data-quality checks that ensure completeness and authentication of every tick. For institutional clients, this infrastructure is as important as the terminal interface itself.

News as Part of the Data Product

TickerPlant's identity as a news vendor — not merely a data pipe — is central to its offering. Financial news moves markets, and a terminal that shows prices without the news behind them is incomplete for a professional user. By bundling real-time financial news with its market data, the company follows the model established by the global terminal giants: the dealing-room screen must carry both the numbers and the narrative. TickerPlant's news coverage, integrated into the MarketView platform and distributed through its feeds, serves the same professional audience as its data — traders, analysts and journalists who need to know why a price moved, not just that it did.

Official Website

TickerPlant's products, data feed specifications and company information are available at its official website, tickerplantindia.com. The site details the MarketView Terminal, MarketView Pro, MarketView Mobile and data feed offerings for banks, brokerages, mutual funds, corporates, educational institutions and individual market participants. The company is headquartered at FT Tower, Suren Road, Chakala, Andheri (East), Mumbai, Maharashtra 400093.

As Indian markets continue to grow in depth and participation, the demand for professional-grade market data and news — delivered in real time, on every screen — continues to expand, and domestic vendors like TickerPlant remain central to meeting it.
