Security Wise Historical Data

#1
Hi all,

I am trying to download stock wise data from NSEIndia.com from the following link: http://www.nseindia.com/content/equities/eq_scriphistdata.htm

The problem is that I get a "Not Found" error if I try to download an year old data in CSV format. Example, I tried to view the data for 26th May 2009. The data was displayed on the browser. And I got this "Not Found" error as soon as I clicked on the "Download file in csv format" link.

Can anyone suggest how and/or where I can get stock-wise EOD data!?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply vmonu, but I need to download this data by it's URL. Actually I am developing a tech analysis software. And this data needs to be downloaded every trading day.

So I do not have the luxury of right clicking on the link.

Do you have any better solution for this please!?

Thanks.

Right, here lies the issue. So you are building a bot that will leech data from NSE's server. NSE server hates this and disallows it.

I have also tried it and gave up. Only bhavcopies and few other things can be downloaded automatically.

Must be a temporary thing. Do try it after a day or two. I had used the link a few months back.
A little tedious way, when you seek data beyond 5 or 6 months it displays the data for about 100 trading sessions. Just select the entire data by dragging the mouse and copy paste it in Excel File.

he does not want human intervention. He is looking to download the data by using a robot.
