One of my TI forum members IV had a requirement for BSE Quotes along with Delivery Quantity. This made me implement “merge” function of R coding (thanks to the great work done by people behind various packages and guidance available on R Mailing lists).

The task involves downloading files from two separate links and merging it on the basis of Symbol on any given date.

The output is a single file for one trading day. With a slight tweak in the code, single file can be generated for a week, a month, a year , or from beginning to end. If anyone is interested, let me know, and will offer the solution for the same

Without much write-up here is the code for the same.

For those, who want to take a shortcut, here are historical quotes

#This code merges BHAVCOPY and Total Deliverable Quantity from BSE
#The output file contains "DATE","SC_CODE","SC_NAME","OPEN","HIGH",
#"LOW","CLOSE","NO_OF_SHRS","DLV_QTY"
