Market rates

Track vegetable, fuel, gold and forex prices in Nepal — from one free app

Four numbers run a Nepali household and a Nepali shop: today's vegetable rate, today's petrol rate, today's gold rate, and today's exchange rate. They live on four different websites. pasal.biz puts all four on one screen, refreshed every day, free.

TL;DR
  • pasal.biz tracks four daily rates in one app — Kalimati vegetables & fruit, NOC fuel, gold & silver per tola, and Nepal Rastra Bank foreign exchange.
  • Each rate shows today's value plus a 7-day and 30-day trend, so you can tell a cheap day from an expensive one.
  • It's free, with no sign-up needed just to look up a rate.
  • The point: stop opening four sites every morning. See what's tracked or get the app.

In one paragraph

The free pasal.biz app tracks four of Nepal's daily market rates on one screen: Kalimati Fruits and Vegetable Market produce prices, Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC) fuel rates for petrol, diesel, kerosene and LPG, gold and silver per tola, and Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB) foreign-exchange buying and selling rates. Each is refreshed daily and shows a 7-day and 30-day trend, so instead of checking four separate websites every morning you open one app. Viewing the rates is free and needs no account.

The four-tabs-every-morning problem

If you run a kitchen, a kirana, a restaurant, or a vehicle in Nepal, your morning has a routine. Check the Kalimati rate before sending someone to the bazaar. Check whether NOC moved the petrol price overnight. Glance at the gold rate if a wedding or a festival is coming. Check the Indian-rupee or US-dollar rate if you import, remit, or buy online.

Each of those numbers lives on a different government or association website, each with its own layout, its own update time, and its own habit of being slow or down. Most people end up checking one or two and guessing the rest — which is exactly when you overpay.

The fix isn't a fifth website. It's putting all four in one place that you already have open. That's what the market-rates feature in pasal.biz does.

The four rates, and where each one comes from

pasal.biz doesn't invent numbers — it reads the official source for each rate every day and shows them together. Here's exactly what's tracked and the authority behind it:

Rate What you see Official source
Vegetables & fruit Daily wholesale & retail price per kg — tomato, onion, potato, green vegetables, seasonal fruit and more Kalimati Fruits & Vegetable Market
Fuel Petrol, diesel, kerosene per litre and LPG per cylinder, updated when the rate is revised Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC)
Gold & silver Hallmark gold, tejabi gold and silver per tola (1 tola = 11.66 g), day over day Federation of Nepal Gold & Silver Dealers' Assn.
Foreign exchange Buying & selling rates for USD, EUR, GBP, INR and more Nepal Rastra Bank (NRB)

The market-rates hub lists the same four with a little more detail. The live daily numbers, charts, and history are inside the app — because a rate is only useful with its trend next to it, and that's what a phone screen does well.

Why one app beats four bookmarks

The value isn't any single number — every one of these is published somewhere public. The value is in not having to chase them:

  Chasing four sites pasal.biz market rates
Where to look 4 different websites, 4 layouts 1 screen, 4 rates
Trend & history Usually today's number only 7-day & 30-day trend on every rate
Cost Free, but your time Free, no sign-up to view
Also lets you Nothing — just read Buy & sell on the same marketplace you're already in

Who actually uses these rates

The rates are part of a bigger reason to be in the app

A standalone "rates app" can only ever show you numbers. pasal.biz shows you the numbers and is the marketplace where you act on them. See that vegetables are cheap this week and you can find a seller in the same app. Run a shop and you can list your products free while keeping an eye on your input costs. The rates are a daily reason to open an app that also runs your buying and selling — at 0% commission.

This is also why the market-rates feature is hard for a storefront builder or a single-purpose price site to copy: the rates only compound in value when they sit next to a real marketplace. A site that just scrapes Kalimati gives you a number; pasal.biz gives you the number and the next step.

How to start tracking today

  1. Install pasal.biz — free on Google Play or the App Store.
  2. Open the market-rates section — all four rates are there, no account required just to look.
  3. Tap any rate to see today's value with its 7-day and 30-day trend.
  4. Check it tomorrow — the numbers refresh daily, so the morning routine becomes one tap instead of four tabs.

Common questions

Is it free to check the rates?

Yes. Viewing vegetable, fuel, gold and foreign-exchange rates in the pasal.biz app is completely free, and you don't need an account just to look them up.

Where do the numbers come from?

From the official sources: the Kalimati Fruits and Vegetable Market for produce, Nepal Oil Corporation for fuel, the recognised gold and silver dealers' association for bullion, and Nepal Rastra Bank for foreign exchange. pasal.biz reads them daily and shows them in one place.

How often are the prices updated?

Every day. Vegetable and forex rates change daily; fuel and bullion update whenever the source revises them. The app always shows the most recent figure it has fetched, along with the date.

Can I see how a price moved over the last week or month?

Yes. Each rate shows the current value plus a 7-day and 30-day trend, so you can tell whether today is a relatively cheap or expensive day to buy or sell.

Why aren't the live numbers on this web page?

Rates move every day and are most useful with their trend and history alongside them, which is what the app is built for. This page and the rates hub explain what's tracked — install the app for the live numbers.

Do I have to be a shopkeeper to use it?

No. Anyone can install pasal.biz and check the rates — home cooks, drivers, people buying gold, importers. Sellers get the rates plus free tools to list and sell; everyone else gets the rates for free.
