How to fetch old expiry dates using python sdk?

Hi,

For backtesting a banknifty strategy I need to know the ltp of a particular strike price. And also I have required the token, symbol and expiry date for getting ltp. But I don not know how to get old expiry dates.

Please show me the way how to get it.

Thank you.

@Mitrajit use underlying instrument
like nifty index instead of nifty future or options
similarly use SBIN-EQ instead of SBIN future or options

Hwllo @Mitrajit

As of now we are not providing the historical data of expired contract but for live contracts you can use the quote(Market Data API) or GetLtpData API
