Muhurat Trading 2025: National Stock Exchange (NSE), on Monday, September 22, announced that it will conduct a one-hour special ‘Muhurat Trading’ session on the occasion of Diwali on October 21.
While the stock markets are closed on the occasion of Diwali Laxmi Pujan, exchanges conduct a symbolic trading session, usually for an hour, to mark the beginning of the new Samvat (financial year as per the Hindu calendar).
In a departure from the norm, this time the special trading session will be held between 1:45 pm and 2:45 pm, the stock exchanges said in a circular, as against the evening when it usually takes place.
