Normal trading on Indian stock exchanges will resume on Friday, December 26, 2025. Traders and investors will then return for the last few trading sessions of the year before wrapping up activities for 2025. The next scheduled market holiday will be on January 26, 2026, when markets will remain closed for Republic Day.
On normal working days, the Indian stock market operates from Monday to Friday, 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM. A pre-open session takes place between 9:00 AM and 9:15 AM, while markets remain closed on Saturdays and Sundays.
Meanwhile, the NSE has announced its trading holiday calendar for 2026. Indian stock markets will be closed for a total of 15 days next year, starting with Republic Day on January 26. Out of these, four holidays fall on weekends, when markets are closed anyway.
