Current data from yahoo gives OHLC values for that day upto that point of time (with 20(??) minute delay). So if I download current data at 2PM, I will get open value at 9:30am, High & low values between 9:30am & 2 pm and close value at 2PM. If you download current data at 6PM , theoretically you should all the data for today. I do this every day for US stocks at least 2 or 3 times a day.
I don't know, if this different for Indian stocks.
