कोइ बात नहीं, इसमें क्या है


Explanation:
In Hindi, we don't really have a formal phrase such as "you are welcome" (or, "it was a pleasure") as an answer when someone thanks us. Generally what happens is, when someone thanks another, the response is "कोइ बात नहीं" or "इसमें क्या है" which roughly translates to "no pains", "what's there in this"

Transliteration: (1) Koi baat nahi (2) Isme kya hai

Spelling corrected after C. M. Rawal's comment:
कोई बात नहीं

agree  C.M. Rawal: Really a good answer. Here you're welcome is an interjection (an expression having no grammatical connection) and means: a polite response to a thank you - don't mention it, my pleasure, no problem, not at all, etc. However, the typo in कोई be corrected.
11 hrs
  -> Thanks, and also for pointing out the spelling mistake.

disagree  Rajesh Srivastava: 'you are welcome' does not mean कोई बात नहीं
13 hrs
  -> In the context of a polite response to "thank you", it does mean that :). Plesae see C.M. Rawal's note to the asker.

agree  Pundora: कोई बात नहीं not कोइ बात नहीं.
1 day 23 hrs
  -> Yes, thanks. I corrected the mistake after Rawalsaab pointed out the mistake.

agree  chaman4723
2 days 13 hrs
  -> Thanks

disagree  Shashidhar Hemmady: कोइ बात नही is not the right translation of 'you are welcome'. कोइ बात नही is used when you want to say 'its ok' or 'never mind'.
