Hi @Ashok_Kumar_k

To anwer your query, 30th Nov is a monthly expiry so you would not get weekly expiry contract for the same

Below is the variation between monthly and weekly contracts, we will get a note added in the documentation as well

BANKNIFTY 23NOV 36500 CE → yyMMM

BANKNIFTY 23N22 36500 CE → yyMdd

If you see the first contract, it is the one you are looking for with 23NOV as the keyword whereas for other dates, you will get the weekly comtract with 23N22 keyword

Hope this helps.
