Installation

pip install financeindia

Quickstart

import financeindia
import json

# Initialize the client
client = financeindia.FinanceClient()

# Recommended: initialize the session once
client._initialize_session()

# Get market status
status = client.get_market_status()
print(json.loads(status))

# Fetch historical data for a stock
data = client.price_volume_data("RELIANCE", "01-03-2025", "05-03-2025")
print(data)

# Fetch current quote
quote = client.get_equity_quote("RELIANCE")
print(json.loads(quote))

# Fetch Corporate Financial Results (Quarterly/Annual)
# 1. Get metadata representing filings
results_meta = client.get_financial_results("RELIANCE", "01-01-2024", "07-03-2026", "Annual")
results = json.loads(results_meta)

# 2. Parse the XBRL detail for a specific filing
if results:
    xbrl_url = results[0]['xbrl']
    financial_details = client.get_financial_details(xbrl_url)
    print(json.loads(financial_details)) # Exhaustive financial data points

Features

• Capital Markets: Equity lists (All & Nifty 50), historical price/volume, deliverable positions.
• Financial Results (Advanced): Exhaustive XBRL parsing for Quarterly and Annual results, providing 500+ data points including Balance Sheets and P&L.
• Bulk & Block Deals: Track large institutional trades.
• Bhavcopy: Full daily trading data in UDiFF format.
• Indices: Comprehensive list of all NSE indices and their constituents.
• Live Analysis: Top gainers, top losers, and most active securities.

Performance Highlights

financeindia implements a thread-safe session caching mechanism. The connection to NSE is refreshed only once every 15 minutes or when the session expires, ensuring that multiple API calls are as fast as possible.
