Excellent. That is helpful information. Next, try testing quote 
retrieval from the command line. If this succeeds, then your problem is 
probably inside GnuCash. If this fails, then the problem is probably 
with the Finance::Quote software bundled with GnuCash, or with the data 
source, or with the configuration.

Instructions for testing quote retrieval from the command line are at: 
<https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Online_Quotes#Setting_up_online_quotes_in_GnuCash>

The command looks something like:

gnucash-cli -V --quotes dump nseindia RELIANCE

On my older version (4.14) of GnuCash, with an older version of the 
command, I get:

% /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/bin/gnc-fq-dump nseindia RELIANCE

Finance::Quote fields Gnucash uses:

     symbol: RELIANCE             <=== required

       date: 08/04/2023           <=== recommended

   currency: INR                  <=== required

       last: 2508                 <=\

        nav:                      <=== one of these

      price:                      <=/

   timezone:                      <=== optional

I hope this helps you get another step further forward.
