Indian stock exchanges close on national and state holidays, also called trading or share market holidays. On these days, no market transactions take place, which can affect trading strategies, settlement cycles, and annual profit or loss calculations.
In 2026, the NSE will observe 16 trading holidays across the Equity, Equity Derivatives, and Securities Lending & Borrowing (SLB) segments. March will have the highest number of holidays, while months like February, July, and August will have none apart from regular weekends.
Being aware of these non‑trading days is essential for managing trading schedules and adjusting strategies effectively. Planning ahead ensures you make the most of trading opportunities throughout the year.
