Some major holidays in 2026 fall on weekends and will not lead to additional market closures. These include Independence Day on August 15 and Diwali Laxmi Pujan on November 8.

Diwali Laxmi Pujan will fall on a Sunday, though exchanges are expected to hold the customary Muhurat Trading session on the same day. The timings for the special one-hour session will be announced closer to the festival.

Apart from the listed holidays, trading across equity, derivatives and other major segments will continue as usual on all working weekdays throughout the year.
