MCX Market data via Upstox API --- data access clarification ( non trading account)

Hello Upstox API Team,

I have an active Upstox account with MCX segment enabled.
I am currently not placing trades, but I am building a Python-based system to fetch MCX GOLD market data using Upstox APIs.

I would like clarification on the following points:

  1. Does Upstox provide MCX market data (LTP / market depth) via APIs?
  2. If yes, is MCX data access free for Upstox account holders, or is any paid subscription required?
  3. Is active trading mandatory to receive MCX live data through the API?
  4. If MCX data is restricted, what is the officially supported way to access it via Upstox?

Current behavior:

  • API authentication works successfully
  • Market quote API returns status=success but data is empty for MCX instruments

I am posting this from my registered Upstox email ID.

Kindly guide me on the correct approach.

Thank you.
