    'NFO:NIFTY JAN 14900 CE'
    Jan contract is already expired. Check for latest instrument from daily instrument list.

    @rakeshr is that mean I can get only current month data?
    Could you please explain it more?
  • sujith
    It is live market data so you can only get current, next, or far month instruments data.

    The tradingsymbol you are using is wrong, you need to send the correct one that is present in the instruments master dump.

    @sujith @rakeshr Thanks for responding but now I am using this symbol NFO:NIFTY FEB 15900 CE but still I am getting an empty result.
  • sujith
    Kite web uses modified tradingsymbol for readability purposes. You need to send the correct tradingsymbol that is mentioned in the instrument master dump.

    @sujith I can see this symbol NFO:NIFTY FEB 15900 CE on the kite but not in the instrument CSV that I have downloaded from the given link, why this thing is happening??
    Could you please explain?
  • sujith
    NIFTY FEB 15900 CE is not a real symbol, it is a readable format generated by the Kite web and app for ease of use.
    Machines only need the actual tradingsymbol while placing an order and in this case it is NIFTY21FEB15900CE
