It is just that the URL has changed and the source data format has changed. I do not know anything about perl or software testing - I am just a Gnucash user who has done this before - ie - reported URL change at IndiaMutual noticed because it stopped working for me, and changed the source in IndiamMutual.pm on my local machine to suit the source change.

Uh, yeah, you did: You created a bug report at CPAN:
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=77312

Which, thanks to their truly awful bug-tracker, is now 2 more bugs:
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=77317
and
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=77334

from our mail replies.
