Please provide API for getting LTP for a particular instrument.
Also, there is no way to get security id or symbol token using API by searching using symbol of that instrument

ok @PravinJ , although it is very simple. I will send email to the above mentioned email.
I will also describe it here. Please refer link from angel broking here

Basically, use it finding CALL or PUT option for banknifty or nifty which has a premium of say Rs 20/- and then buy both CE and PE which are below Rs 20/- LTP. This is used for call spread put spread like strategies.

Has this been done? Would like to know if we have an API to fetch the LTP for a security.
