Default Query regarding exercise of options

When I exercise my option, is the current spot price considered or the end-of-day price?

For example, I have a Infosys 1900 call option. At 1pm Infosys is at 2000 and I exericse my option at 1pm. Do I get the price at 1pm which is 2000 or do I get the price at the end of day (which might be substantially different from 2000)??

Thanks

I had already read that website. I could not find it mentioned anywhere that exercise is based on EOD closing price.

Any other pointers?

Thanks
