List of Future Share Market Holidays in April 2025: NSE & BSE Trading Holidays

Whether you are a trader or an investor, it is important to keep yourself posted with the share market holidays in order to plan your trades, handle your portfolio, and not be taken by surprise. This blog is providing a comprehensive list of share market holidays in April 2025 released by NSE (National Stock Exchange) and BSE (Bombay Stock Exchange). Being aware of the closed days in the stock market makes you better prepared and well-informed.

Share Market Holidays: Why They Are Important

The Indian stock market is open on weekdays (Monday to Friday) and closed during weekends and certain public holidays. These holiday sessions are announced in advance by the exchanges and can be dependent on festivals, national holidays, or special occasions.

Missing these can impact:

  • Intraday trading strategies
  • Delivery-based investments
  • Options and futures expiry dates
  • Commodity market trades (particularly for MCX)

That is why monitoring the share market holidays list 2025 is a good decision.

NSE and BSE will be closed for trading activity on these three holidays.

Stock Market Timings (Regular Working Days)

For people trading on usual days, following is a brief recap of Indian stock market timings:

  • Pre-open session: 9:00 AM to 9:15 AM
  • Normal trading session: 9:15 AM to 3:30 PM
  • Post-market session: 3:40 PM to 4:00 PM

Note: Commodity market (MCX) timings vary, and the holidays may differ marginally.

Impact of Share Market Holidays

  • Liquidity Falls: Volume tends to decline a day ahead of or behind a significant holiday.
  • Gap Openings: Following long weekends, international cues can result in major gap-ups or gap-downs.
  • Expiry Adjustments: In case an F&O expiry date coincides with a holiday, the expiry shifts to the last working day.
  • Commodity Market Exceptions: MCX and NCDEX can function partially even if NSE and BSE are closed.

MCX Holidays in April 2025 (Commodity Market)

While NSE and BSE are closed on the above dates, MCX (Multi Commodity Exchange) can have a half-day trading session based on the holiday.

DateDayHoliday NameMorning SessionEvening Session
