How to retrieve BSE/NSE listed stock's price from finance.yahoo.com

Question

I'm developing an application for stocks displaying through finance.yahoo.com in Java using Spring framework.

But it only provides share values from NYSE, Nasdaq-NM, etc. How can I retrieve the values of share by specify NSE or BSE?

Answer 1

You can retrieve the components of BSE and NSE with these two links: http://in.finance.yahoo.com/gainers?e=bo and http://in.finance.yahoo.com/losers?e=bo ( Gainers and Losers ).
Once you have your full list of stocks, just use your link to retrieve data, for example:

http://download.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=BOBSL.BO,JAIPAN.BO,SANGHIIN.BO&f=snl1d1t1ohgdrx

You might want to check each ticker individually, and ensuring it does retrieve correct information though, eg SOUTHINDBSL.BO doesn't seem to work properly.
