OI field is already provided in FnO files. It is not there in equities. Exchange doesn't give
Its downloaded as a separate file

http://www.nseindia.com/products/content/equities/equities/eq_security.htm

GBC parses that file to extract the values and adds the field. The value addition is, that for non FnO stocks the field contains deliverable volume data

Prior to 1-12-2015, NSE used to provide index historical data from here ........On 1-12-2015, NSE decided to increase number of indices and also started disbursing data for all of them in single file
Am aware (since all utilities again went kaput on that day :)). Was referring to the provision of parsing the file, post download, to extract only the selected indices as per user choice (same as NSE EOD Downloader)

There are 1600 plus scrips in NSE equity which you are carrying in your data base. Out of these, at least 500 are useless for trading. What difference does is make if you add another 30 index scrips which you don't use? Just ignore them.
That certainly is an option too :)

Personally, no 'must haves' are attached to these suggestions :) Every downloader has its unique characteristics

Since the quotes should be in seperate lines, you can simply 'grep' out what you need.

So can do simple batch file / script that
1) opens ABCD and waits for close ( or do it manually)
2) extract required scrips using grep ( i gave command earlier ) and output to seperate csv
3) use import script.

grep is standard unix command to search in text file and is also available for windows, i got it from here

As example, here is the AHK script that i use for ABCD. AHK is not really needed but i prefer it over batch files.
Drop this inside ABCD and edit the script.

ABCD can now download EOD data for
NSE Equity, futures, Options, Currency, Indices
BSE Equity, futures, Currency

BSE futures is in excel format. I did not know how to handle it. All other files are processed and saved in format compatible with Amibroker, Metastock etc.
Download link available in my signature.

This is my format file.
Code:
# Format definition file generated automatically
# by AmiBroker's ASCII Import Wizard
$FORMAT Ticker, Date_YMD, Open, High, Low, Close, Volume, OpenInt
$SKIPLINES 0
$SEPARATOR ,
$CONT 1
$GROUP 255
$AUTOADD 1
$DEBUG 1
ABCD is open source. It will work in windows as well as linux. No dependencies like dot net.
