Exchange Token for Indexes "NIFTY 50" and "NIFTY BANK" is different in Zerodha

I assume that exchange token is unique across brokers but i am facing issue with Two instruments

exchange token for Indexes in Zerodha (exchange: "NSE", segment: "INDICES") is not matching with other brokers, where as for all the other instruments that i worked on are coming as same.

NIFTY 50: 1001 (exchange token in Zerodha), 26000 (token id in other brokers like Angel, Fyers)
NIFTY BANK: 1016(exchange token in Zerodha), 26009 (token id in other brokers like Angel, Fyers)

Can please some one point out why this could be ? , Thanks in advance.

P.S: this is source of Zerodha exchange tokens i am referring to https://api.kite.trade/instruments

    Indices don't have tokens at exchanges, they're strings, so brokers create their own tokens.
