Niyam is India's rupee-first crypto futures and options platform. Curated markets, INR in and INR out, and leverage capped where it protects you. Because good trading is a set of rules, followed well.
India has one of the largest derivatives trading communities in the world. Millions of traders manage positions on equity F&O platforms every day with real skill and real process. But when those same traders looked at crypto, what they found rarely matched their standards.
Prices quoted in foreign currencies. Hundreds of low-liquidity tokens fighting for attention. Leverage dangled like a lottery ticket. Platforms built for hype, not for people who treat trading as a profession.
We started Niyam to close that gap: a crypto derivatives exchange that feels familiar to anyone who has traded futures and options on a professional platform, and that runs entirely in Indian Rupees.
Niyam is the Sanskrit word for rule. In practice, it means the daily disciplines you commit to and keep, the habits that compound into mastery.
Ask any consistently profitable trader what separates them from the crowd and you'll hear the same answer: not tips, not luck, not leverage. Rules. Position sizing they never break. Risk limits they never negotiate with. Entries and exits decided before the trade, not during it.
We named our exchange after that idea and then built every product decision around it, from the pairs we list to the leverage we allow.
Niyam is a focused crypto derivatives exchange. You trade perpetual futures and options on curated crypto pairs. Every contract is priced in INR, margined in INR and settled in INR. You deposit rupees through UPI, you withdraw rupees to your bank account, and nothing in between requires you to think in another currency.
Perpetual futures track the price of an asset without expiry, so you can hold a view for an hour or a quarter. Options give you defined-risk ways to express the same views. Both sit in one terminal, with live P&L, margin visibility and risk controls on a single screen.
Maximum leverage is 25x, deliberately. The cap protects positions from being wiped out by routine market moves. It's risk management, not a limitation.
No random tokens, no noise. We list only curated, vetted pairs that serious derivatives traders actually use, with the liquidity to match.
Deposits and withdrawals in Indian Rupees only, via UPI. No crypto custody risk, no conversion hops, no foreign currency exposure.
Our order matching engine is built for high-volatility sessions, when speed decides whether your plan executes at your price.
Round-the-clock relationship manager access, and withdrawals processed in under 15 minutes. Your money should move as fast as your trades.
Futures maker fee of 0.02% and taker fee of 0.05%. INR deposits and withdrawals are free. What you see is what you pay.
We make conservative product choices on purpose, even when louder options would sell better. Rules first, always.
Every feature is judged by one question: does this help a trader execute their plan better? If not, it doesn't ship.
Clear fees, visible margin, honest risk disclosure. You should never be surprised by your own exchange.

Create Free AccountNiyam Exchange is a crypto derivatives exchange India's trading community can approach on familiar terms. If you already trade equity futures and options, the platform will feel like home: a professional terminal, transparent margining, and instruments you understand — just applied to crypto markets, and settled entirely in rupees.
Most crypto futures trading in India still routes through dollar-denominated pairs, which means conversion costs and unfamiliar accounting at every step. Niyam removes that layer. You fund your account in INR through UPI, trade crypto perpetual futures priced in INR, and withdraw INR to your bank — typically in under 15 minutes. For traders who think in rupees, this is how crypto futures trading should have worked from the start.
Options on Niyam give Indian traders defined-risk ways to trade crypto volatility: buy calls for upside, puts for downside, or combine legs to hedge a futures position. Clear margin requirements and live P&L keep every position understandable, making Niyam a crypto options trading platform India's F&O community can genuinely learn on and scale with.
What sets Niyam apart among crypto trading platforms in India is restraint. Leverage capped at 25x, a curated list of vetted pairs, and INR-only settlement are all deliberate choices that reduce the ways a trader can get hurt. Fast matching and deep tooling take care of execution; the platform's rules take care of longevity. That combination — speed where it helps, limits where they protect — is what we believe the next generation of crypto derivatives trading in India looks like.
