Thanks @rakeshr
Can you please re-confirm the rate limit for the below APIs
1) getQuote API - 1r/s
2) getLTP API - 10r/s
I intent to call the above APIs through java KiteConnect 3.0.

@sivakrishna538,
Yes, you are right. The rate limits are on the APIs and not really at the library level.

One last question, if the limits are as below
1) getQuote API - 1r/s
2) getLTP API - 10r/s
then, can I safely assume that ltp values gets updated at least 10 times at zerodha from the exchange in 1sec? (or) Is it the same ltp value every time within a sec?

If you are looking to fetch data continuously then I would suggest using the Websockets API.

You can check out FAQs to know more about the tick frequency.
