Nifty Website not Accessible

[UditGupta10]

Issue description

The website: https://niftyindices.com is not working. Is this temporary or has there been a migration to some other url. If so, the code needs to be updated to reflect that.
Specifically, I'm accessing:

jugaad-data/jugaad_data/nse/history.py

Line 275 in c6a6427

class NSEIndexHistory(NSEHistory):

.

The returned response code is 403.

Example Code

nifty_50 = index_df(symbol="NIFTY 50",
	           from_date='2023-09-01',
		   to_date='2023-09-20')

Faced similar issues related to indices modules across many libraries. It is because nse made modifications to its request payload a few days back and the code isn't updated for the same.

You can track this alternative api for various stuff and not just data gathering: https://github.com/devfinwiz/Fin-Maestro-Kin
It is presently in it's early stages of development. Active work on it is in progress. Once this is deployed, you can simply send your request to specific endpoints to receive results.
