India's primary stock exchanges—the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) and National Stock Exchange (NSE)—will observe a market holiday on September 14, 2026, to mark the festival of Ganesh Chaturthi. Trading will recommence on September 15, 2026.
Ganesh Chaturthi, celebrating the birth of Lord Ganesha, is one of the major Hindu festivals observed across India. The closure ensures market participants and trading personnel can observe the festival with their families.
The exchanges maintain a detailed calendar of market holidays throughout the financial year, balancing national holidays, religious observances, and international market considerations. Investors and traders are advised to factor these closures into their trading strategies and settlement schedules.
Market participants can access the complete schedule of remaining holidays for 2026 through official BSE and NSE announcements, allowing adequate time for portfolio planning and risk management. The exchanges typically notify members well in advance of any trading disruptions or special market hours.
