Hi Vikas, you can do it by importing the yfinance library. Let suppose say you want to download the data for Bank of America, the ticker for it is "BAC". After you import the library as yf, you can download the data as below

data_df = yf.download("BAC", start="2015-01-02", end="2020-04-30")

P.S. If the yfinance library is not already installed, you can do it by running the below command in a jupyter notebook cell:

!pip install yfinance
