How to get the current BSE & NSE index value

I can get trading symbols live quote, but how to get the value of BSE & NSE index value, which is critical to know how market is behaving.

Could not find instrument id for the same.

All NIFTY indices are listed in the /instruments call. Eg:
`256265,1001,NIFTY 50,NIFTY 50,0.0,,0.0,0.0,0,EQ,NSE-INDICES,NSE` -- Nifty 50's instrument_token is 256265

SENSEX however is not available as of now (not on Kite either), although it will be made available very soon.

@Kailash When will SENSEX will get available? What's its symbol and token? Recently, checked out the list of all the instrument. Didn't found Sensex.

Hi @Sowmay,
We haven't yet included SENSEX in Kite Connect. We have right now frozen adding new features, till we finish revamp of core APIs. We will add it in future.

I can't get NIFTY INDEX streaming data in streaming api. can you confirm if this is working?

Hi @tarunsuneja,
Can you let us know instrument token for which you are trying to get streaming data?
Make sure you are not sending token as a string.
We use it on all our platforms and it seems to be working fine.
