       information downloaded from amfiindia.com.

       In India a mutual fund does not have a unique global symbol identifier.

       This module uses an id that represents the mutual fund on an id used by amfiindia.com.  You can the fund is from the AMFI web site
       http://amfiindia.com/downloadnavopen.asp.

       Information available from amfiindia may include the following labels:

       method link source name currency nav rprice sprice.  The link label will be a url location for the NAV list table for all funds.

NOTES

       amfiindia.com provides a link to download a text file containing all the NAVs. This file is mirrored in a local file /tmp/amfinavlist.txt.
       The local mirror serves only as a cache and can be safely removed.

       Currently NAVs of Open-Ended funds are supported.
