amfiquery
is simple utility for anyone investing in Indian Mutual
Funds, and who interested in tracking their Net Asset Values.
It just periodically reads and parses http://www.amfiindia.com/spages/NAV0.txt, and provides an API to query the current NAV of any mutual fund you're interested in.
Just hit the URL:
http://amfiquery.appspot.com/nav?code=105628
to get the NAV of the fund with that scheme code. That URL is for SBI MAGNUM TAXGAIN SCHEME 1993 - GROWTH
, for example.
Todos:
- A simple method to get mutual fund meta-info that I'm storing (name, NAV, repurchase price, sale price, etc).
- A method to lookup/list mutual fund scheme codes.
- Maybe even capture historical information? Right now I'm just storing the latest available NAV.
The application runs on the Google App Engine, and is open-source (under the GPL v3 license). I had created this application for my own personal use (and as a sort of experiment). Use it at your own risk.
