I am trying to fetch all web tables but I am not able to fetch them. I have tried same program for other website and its working but for this particular website its not working at all.

VBA Code:
Sub Export_HTML_Table_To_Excel()
    Dim htm As Object
    Dim Tr As Object
    Dim Td As Object
    Dim Tab1 As Object

    'Replace the URL of the webpage that you want to download
     Web_URL = "https://www.indiaratings.co.in/pressrelease/60901"
   
    'Create HTMLFile Object
    Set HTML_Content = CreateObject("htmlfile")

    'Get the WebPage Content to HTMLFile Object
    With CreateObject("msxml2.xmlhttp")
        .Open "GET", Web_URL, False
        .send
        HTML_Content.body.innerHTML = .responseText
    End With

    Column_Num_To_Start = 1
    iRow = 2
    iCol = Column_Num_To_Start
    iTable = 0

    'Loop Through Each Table and Download it to Excel in Proper Format
    For Each Tab1 In HTML_Content.getElementsByTagName("table")
        With HTML_Content.getElementsByTagName("table")(iTable)
            For Each Tr In .Rows
                For Each Td In Tr.Cells
                    Worksheets("ABC").Cells(iRow, iCol).Select
                    Worksheets("ABC").Cells(iRow, iCol) = Td.innerText
                    iCol = iCol + 1
                Next Td
                iCol = Column_Num_To_Start
                iRow = iRow + 1
            Next Tr
        End With
        iTable = iTable + 1
        iCol = Column_Num_To_Start
        iRow = iRow + 1
    Next Tab1

    MsgBox "Process Completed"
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Spell Check in Excel
Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
If Tab1 is already an HTML object, no need for With HTML_Content.getElementsByTagName("table")(iTable)
on:
VBA Code:
    For Each Tab1 In HTML_Content.getElementsByTagName("table")
        With HTML_Content.getElementsByTagName("table")(iTable)

would be:
VBA Code:
    For Each Tab1 In HTML_Content.getElementsByTagName("table")
        With Tab1

If you print to file the downloaded HTML_Content.body.innerhtml, you will get only one element in <body>, this element: "<app-root>Loading...</app-root>"... which means it's loading something else. No matter if you force a wait, the element never gets loaded on the CreateObject("msxml2.xmlhttp").

If you go through the browser instead (overriding the VBA), there is a status=400 response in the download (which means Error), but you get what else it's already downloading. One of the downloads is the target you are after.

So the rigth URL should be "https://www.indiaratings.co.in/pres...0901&uniqueIdentifier=##.###.###.###-20230210". Where the ##.###.###.### stands for your IP address (although you can fake it with other numbers), followed by the date of the query. With this URL you get a JSON response with all the tables embedded. Without the &uniqueIdentifier= you will get nothing, as it will be stalled on the status=400 error, with some error when validating.

Done.

As returns comes in JSON, you should parse content with VBA-JSON by Tim Hall, a JSON converter for VBA, or something similar.
