Data Dates, Units & Research Limits

How to read market scope, report dates, IST times, Indian-number units and the limits of the guide's historical examples.

Prime sign-in may be required. This guide never places orders or changes your account.

What you can do here

Guide captures are dated 10 Nov 2026 and mostly show UI reports for 9 Nov, but specialist reports can be older. Observed examples mean values seen in local terminal captures, not independently authenticated exchange truth. Walkthrough examples are instructions, not completed results. None of these pages provides investment advice or a guarantee of future performance.

  • Separate capture time, quote time, report date and analysis timeframe.
  • Keep rupees, lakh/crore, percentages, ratios, OI and contract activity in their stated units.

A look inside Data Dates, Units & Research Limits

Historical capture
Data Dates, Units & Research Limits / terminal capture
The MTF image is used to demonstrate a specialist report date differing from the global header, not a claim that all data was current on capture day.

From numbers to understanding

  1. 01

    ₹ denotes rupees; 1 lakh/L is 100,000 and 1 crore/Cr is 10,000,000.

  2. 02

    A 5× ratio, a 5% move and a five-percentage-point change are different quantities.

  3. 03

    IST is Asia/Kolkata, UTC+05:30; quote timestamps and date-only report labels must not be conflated.

  4. 04

    OI, contracts, shares, premium, underlying price and turnover retain their source labels; do not assume universal derivatives units.

THREE DIFFERENT DATES

Terminal-displayed example

The historical capture was taken 10 Nov 2026; its header displayed session 9 Nov, while MTF itself showed report 6 Nov. These are terminal labels, not independently authenticated exchange dates. A displayed 8 Nov 2026 elsewhere falls on Sunday and is not accepted here as a validated trading session.

What this does not tell you

A missing value is not zero, an old value is not live, and a terminal display is not independent source authentication. Past performance does not predict future results.

Analysis, not advice. Past performance does not predict future results. Examples are illustrative; prices, scores and counts may have changed.
