Developer API

Hi Team,

I used this Historical Intraday API yesterday to get SRF close price which came as 3031.3 but when i checked today using Historical candle V3 data for yesterday I got close price of 3046.0. I have mentioned below cURLs for details

curl --location 'https://api.upstox.com/v3/historical-candle/intraday/NSE_EQ|INE647A01010/days/1' \
--header 'Api-Version: 2.0' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: ' \
--header 'Cookie: '

curl --location 'https://api.upstox.com/v3/historical-candle/NSE_EQ|INE647A01010/days/1/2026-01-14/2026-01-12' \
--header 'Api-Version: 2.0' \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer ' \

I used Historical Intraday API at 7 PM to get a download of data.

This led to incorrect analysis on my side. Could you please let me know which API should I use and at what time ?

Any update on this ?

@ARCHIT_3950070 - This is expected behavior. The 1-day OHLC close value can change because end-of-day data is finalized only after we ingest the exchange-provided bhav copy, which is processed around 5:30 AM on the next trading day. Intraday APIs usually reflect the LTP available at that moment, whereas the official daily close from the bhav file may differ due to post-market auctions, adjustments, or exchange corrections. Hence, the close price from Historical Candle V3 can be different from what you observed using intraday data earlier.
