What's New in PropaTrade
A clearer, more education-led, research-evaluation experience—built to help you understand the rules, improve as a trader, and track progress with full transparency.
Clarity
Clearer definitions of simulated trading, "Allocated Research Capital", and how stipends work
Education
A stronger learning ecosystem (Gurukul + NISM tracks + performance coaching)
Research Evaluation
More clear evaluation structure, risk rules, and stipend share logic
Clearer Platform Experience
Education + Simulation + Research Evaluation
This release focuses on removing confusion and setting correct expectations from day one.
What's clearer now:
- PropaTrade is explained more directly as a trading education, simulation, and research evaluation environment
- Allocated Research Capital is clearly defined as a virtual capital tier used for evaluation and research
- Stronger, more readable disclosures on what the platform does (and does not) provide—so you can make informed decisions with full context

Earn Stipends
Eligible consultants can earn performance-based research stipends as professional fees (TDS deducted as per applicable rates).
Evaluation Rules Are Now More Explicit
The evaluation remains a two-phase system, but the updated guidelines make the constraints easier to follow.
Profit Targets
Time Limits (Maximum)
If the profit target isn't achieved within the maximum allowed days, the evaluation is marked as failed (no extensions).
Minimum Trading Days
Risk Management Definitions Are Clearer
Based on the feedback we received from our community, we have decided to change the trailing drawdown to static.
Maximum Drawdown: 10% (Static)
The maximum drawdown is defined as 10% of the initial account balance and does not increase even if you make new equity highs.
New Stipend Share System
Simple & Transparent: Standard vs Boost
We've simplified the stipend share structure so you can see exactly what you earn. Every certified Consultant is eligible for the full share — up to 70% on Standard and up to 85% with Boost.
What is Boost?
Boost is an optional add-on at checkout that gives you:
- Higher stipend share — up to 85% (vs up to 70% on Standard)
- Bi-weekly payouts
- Faster first stipend (10 days vs 25 days) + priority support
ProTrack (BSE Stocks, Sensex & BANKEX F&O)
Monthly (Standard Payouts)
Example: ₹50L • 5% profit = ₹2,50,000
Bi-weekly + Boost
RecommendedExample: ₹50L • 5% profit = ₹2,50,000
Grow Your Skills with NISM Courses
Stipend share is no longer gated behind certifications — every certified Consultant earns the full share on their chosen plan. NISM Series VIII and Series XV courses remain available in the Gurukul as SEBI-recognized learning tracks to strengthen your knowledge.
Coming in March: We will be launching online courses and bootcamps on these certifications—please stay tuned for more details.
Withdrawals

A Stronger Education Layer: PropaTrade Gurukul
Our Biggest Upgrade
The updated PropaTrade experience puts much more emphasis on skill-building, not just evaluation.
What's included (high level):
- A dedicated Gurukul section with learning tracks and webinars
- Clear learning progression aligned with NISM Series VIII and NISM Series XV
- Expanded focus on psychology, performance, and wellness—because consistency isn't only about strategy
Gurukul Coaches
Learn from practitioners, not just theory
We're building Gurukul with educators, performance coaches, and specialists who focus on the real drivers of trader performance—risk process, mindset, and repeatability. You'll see more of:
- Trading educators to improve structure, execution, and decision-making
- Performance & psychology coaches to help with discipline under pressure
- Wellness-focused experts to support longevity and focus (especially during volatile sessions)
This is only the start. We'll be rolling out more Gurukul content, workshops, and structured learning paths over the coming weeks.
