Common Index Reference - Zerodha & AngelOne

This document provides a comprehensive mapping of index symbols between Zerodha and AngelOne brokers, along with their normalized common format used in OpenCase for benchmarking.

Overview

OpenCase normalizes index symbols to ensure consistent benchmarking regardless of which broker is connected:

• Zerodha: Uses UPPERCASE with spaces (e.g., NIFTY 50, NIFTY BANK)
• AngelOne: Uses Title Case (e.g., Nifty 50, Nifty Bank)
• Normalized: No spaces, UPPERCASE (e.g., NIFTY, BANKNIFTY)

F&O Tradeable Indices

These are the primary indices used for Futures & Options trading and portfolio benchmarking.

Normalization Logic

The normalization happens during instrument download:

1. F&O Indices: Mapped to their contract symbols

   • NIFTY 50 / Nifty 50 -> NIFTY
   • NIFTY BANK / Nifty Bank -> BANKNIFTY

2. Sectoral Indices: Spaces removed, uppercase

   • NIFTY IT / Nifty IT -> NIFTYIT
   • NIFTY PHARMA / Nifty Pharma -> NIFTYPHARMA

3. BSE Indices: Prefixed with BSE where needed

   • MIDCAP -> BSEMIDCAP
   • BSE IT -> BSEIT

4. Generic Fallback: For unmapped indices

   • Remove spaces and special characters
   • Convert to uppercase

Re-downloading Instruments

To apply normalization to existing data, re-download instruments:

1. Go to /contracts page
2. Click "Download Zerodha Instruments"
3. Click "Download AngelOne Instruments"

The normalized symbols will be applied during the download process.

Notes

• Some indices are available only in one broker
• AngelOne has fewer index instruments compared to Zerodha
• The normalization ensures consistent symbol lookup for benchmarking
• Original broker symbols are preserved in zerodha_trading_symbol and angelone_trading_symbol columns
