Error in fetching latest 125 5minute candles

swagar1729

I am using the following code to fetch 5min candle for NIFTY and BANKNIFTY. But some of fetched OHLC value doesn't match the actual results.
today = datetime.now(IST).today()
minute = today.minute
start = today - timedelta(days=6)
data = self.kite.historical_data(instrument_token=instrument_token, from_date=start, to_date=today+timedelta(days=1), interval='{}minute'.format(frame))
df = pd.DataFrame(data)
df.set_index('date',inplace=True)
return df
