Free NSE course — FAQ
- Are these free NSE courses?
- Yes. The Learn path is free to read with no account required. Optional paper trading and educational algos on the site are also free for practice.
- Is this an official NSE or NISM course?
- No. This is an independent educational syllabus about how NSE markets work. It is not an official NSE, NISM, or SEBI certification program. For regulated exams, use official NISM / NSE Academy materials.
- What is the free NSE course syllabus?
- Section 1 covers market literacy (ecosystem, orders, Demat/KYC, taxes, circuits, IPOs, mutual funds, bonds/G-Secs, fundamentals). Section 2 covers charting, indicators, patterns, and risk. Section 3 covers futures, options, sentiment, and systems. Finish with a practice knowledge exam.
- Where is the NSE exam syllabus?
- The educational syllabus outline and a 12-question practice test are on the NSE exam page. That is not the official NISM or NSE Academy syllabus — use those portals for regulated certificates.
- Do I need a Demat or broker account to start?
- No. You can complete the free course and practice exam first. Open a Demat only when you are ready for live markets — and practice with paper trading before risking capital.
