Getting Unknown symbol when placing trade through API

nivasdhina

I have also arrived at some logic to concatenate the required Strike symbols but when I try to place the order I am getting an unknown symbol. Do you have any good solution for this?

Am I missing out on something here? I have also tried to take the dump of all trading symbols from the Kite API and this symbol is also present. But yet I get the above error. Thanks in advance.

Trading symbol is correct. Are you sending correct exchange name for the symbol? It should be NFO.

I have been sending the order to NSE, Let me change it so probably it should work...Thanks Rakesh.
