The ISIN "INF846K01Y05" does not exist in the data used by the nseindia 
method.

The Finance::Quote module NSEIndia.pm module works by extracting data 
from a zipped CSV file retrieved from nseindia.com. Friday's file would 
have been 
https://archives.nseindia.com/content/historical/EQUITIES/2023/AUG/cm04AUG2023bhav.csv.zip

Reliance and INFY do exist, and F::Q's own example retrieval script will 
show (The example scripts are in the tarball CPAN downloads when 
installing the F::Q module):

Why the data for INF846K01Y05 is not available from NSE India (did it 
perhaps stop trading?) is beyond the scope of both GnuCash and 
Finance::Quote. Sorry.
