Hello,

I am trying to figure out a way to download the data from this webpage, which has 4 collapsible sections but no luck whatsoever yet.

https://www.moneycontrol.com/stocks/data-bank/standalone/auto-2-3-wheelers.html

There are around 30 sections sharing same columns, for which data needs to be repeatedly downloaded, doing manually is painstakingly medieval.

Appreciate if you can take a look and help me with this.

Hi kl.rameet,

The way to do this is going to the Data ribbon and then clicking on From the web. Here you can input the url. After the site loaded, click on the small yellow Arrow and click on the Import button.

Best regards,
Trowa

Hi kl.rameet,

Let me show you the file where I imported the site.

The company names are located in A108:A117.

Here is the file:

Does this look the same for you?
