October 2025 Market Holidays: Plan Ahead for Gandhi Jayanti and Dussehra Closures
Stay informed about the upcoming stock market holidays in October 2025. Discover when NSE and BSE will be closed for Gandhi Jayanti and Dussehra, ensuring you can plan your trading activities effectively.
October 2025 brings a couple of significant holidays that will impact the trading schedule of India's leading stock exchanges, the National Stock Exchange (NSE) and the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE). For investors and traders, understanding these market closures is crucial for effective portfolio management and strategic planning.
The first market holiday in October 2025 falls on Thursday, October 2nd, in observance of Gandhi Jayanti.
This national holiday commemorates the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of the Nation. On this day, both the equity and derivative segments, including equity, equity derivatives, and currency derivatives, will remain closed. This means no trading activity will take place across the major exchanges.
Later in the month, another important closure is scheduled for Monday, October 20th, for Dussehra (Vijayadashami).
This widely celebrated festival signifies the victory of good over evil, and financial markets will pause to observe the occasion. Similar to Gandhi Jayanti, all segments including equity, equity derivatives, and currency derivatives on NSE and BSE will be non-operational for the entire day.
These holidays are part of the official calendar released by the exchanges, and it's always advisable for participants to factor them into their trading strategies.
While the markets are closed, off-market activities such as checking portfolio performance, reading market analysis, or planning future trades can still be undertaken. However, no live transactions can be executed.
Stay updated with these essential dates to ensure a seamless trading experience and make informed decisions throughout October 2025.
Remember, while the markets take a break, smart investors continue to monitor global trends and prepare for the trading days ahead.
