Does anyone know if I can extract NAV and/or discount or premium for ITs from any source, like share prices from Yahoo finance? Also is there a way of finding out what the discount or premium was on any given historical date?
TIA

I'm not aware of any source that can do precisely what you want. Trustnet is a common source for IT data:

Morningstar has a good search facility that will list NAV and Discount/Premium information.

It can be set to list 500 results at a time via a drop-down at the bottom of the page, which can then be exported to Excel via the rather small 'Export' button just above the column-headers -

With regards to seeing historical discount/premium information, I'm not sure if you'll easily get that in tabular form, but there's a useful historical graph available at the bottom of the Trustnet 'Performance' page, shown here for JP Morgan Indian IT (JII), which allows multi-year views to be taken, up to 5-years, on discount/premium figures -

Vedry useful, thank you. Trustnet and M'star are such rich seams of info it can be hard navigating to what you want. Thanks for the pointers.
