Earlier today I was looking for an C# API which provides stock quotes for Indian market(BSE)/(NSE) in real time. But couldn’t really find anything close to it.
I want to create a rich desktop application like MoneyControl.com for windows using C# .NET and expression studio. I am searching for an C# API or any webservice to get the quotes from NSE or BSE.
To be honest, I am not sure about your exact answer.
However, stock exchanges generally do offer their data feeds e.g. check this service from BSE: http://www.bseindia.com/about/abtip.asp . There are two levels of data feeds available and over HTTP, you can get one minute snapshot delivered – check out FAQ and vendors.
Another way would be do web scraping to gather the data – essentially, you mimic browser actions for target web-site (say http://www.bseindia.com) from your code to get the relevant data. For example, simulating this page (http://www.bseindia.com/debtbhav/BhavCopyDebt.aspx) would give you bhavcopy details for BSE. NSE also has similar pages to get the relevant data e.g. http://www.nseindia.com/archives/archives.htm.
