volatility surface for .DJI

Hello,

I am using python script to calculate evaluations of OTC Equity options via RDP and the parameter volatility_type='SVISurface' works well for most cases. I noticed that for OTC Equity Options with Dow Jones Index as underlying (<.DJI>) the volatility (vol) returned is the same regardless of maturity and/or strike which should not be the case for a surface.

Can you please let me know if another instrument code (instead of .DJI) should be used to get the right vol? or any other suggestion?

I attached the code and results.

Thanks,

Moti
