Handling Special Characters

This is applicable only to users of REST API

 
When sending requests for InstrumentIdentifiers which contain special characters in their names – for example L&T, M&M, NIFTY 50 (there is a white space between NIFTY and 50), you will need to use URL Encoding as explained Here.
 
Some examples are as below :

Identifier Name InstrumentIdentifier to be sent in API Request
L&T L%26T
M&M M%26M
NIFTY 50 NIFTY%2050
NIFTY BANK NIFTY%20BANK
MCDOWELL-N MCDOWELL%2DN
