[meet panchal]

i wanted to fetch symbol tokens of sensex options so today was 14th november2024 the day is thursday and technically today is the expiry since tomorrow is holiday so the expiry should be 14nov but in the json file it was
available for 24nov
1st occurence

2nd occurrence

as you can see there was a mistake in the expiry dates
