Hi @sujith

Thanks for your response. Sorry I had a look a the link you provided, but getting confused. Is it that candles can ONLY be retrieved by GetHistoricalData method (which is part of historic api and paid) and the current price is only retrieved in the form of ticker and not the candle.

If I am wrong, please point me to a .net code sample

Yes, go through the documentation here.

Yes, websocket streaming is the recommended way of getting live ltp.
