Suggest you to first read this answer of mine:

> I use Zerodha Pi. I have seen this happen a few times, I am looking at a live chart, say 1 min Nifty dec future chart. I open another chart from the marketwatch for the same 1 min timeframe of Nifty dec future, both the charts don’t seem to match exactly. There is usually a small difference, why is this?

Intraday candles are formed by ticks that we receive from the exchange. There could be hundreds of ticks in a second, but we get between 2 to 4 ticks from the exchange. So there might be price points that we never captured.  
But exchange at end of day give out OHLC for the day on bhav copy - what happened at the exchange. We sync the daily chart with this OHLC. We can’t do this for intraday, because exchange gives out only OHLC for day and not per min. Hence, there can be ticks which the intraday chart didn’t capture which will show up on day chart. Usually if there is a big difference, it might be some stray ticks at market open or when liquidity is extremely less.
