With the festive season approaching, the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) will remain closed on Monday, March 31, 2025, in observance of Eid-Ul-Fitr (Ramzan Id). As a result, equity, derivatives, and securities lending and borrowing (SLB) segments will be non-operational for the day.
Eid-Ul-Fitr marks the culmination of Ramadan, a month of fasting, prayers, and reflection for Muslims worldwide. The festival is celebrated with feasts, charitable acts, and community gatherings, symbolizing gratitude and spiritual fulfillment.
In addition to the closure on March 31, the stock exchanges will remain shut on the following days:
Under normal circumstances, the Indian stock markets operate Monday to Friday, with trading hours from 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM. A pre-opening session from 9:00 AM to 9:15 AM facilitates a smooth market start. The markets remain closed on weekends.
While stock markets will be shut, banks, insurance companies, and income tax offices will remain open to facilitate end-of-financial-year transactions. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has directed agency banks to process government transactions, ensuring smooth financial operations.
