Good. I was searching complete List of nse holidays in 2026.
Glad it helped! Happy to know you found the complete list here. Thanks for reading and sharing your feedback.
Do holidays observed by the NSE and BSE apply to all trading segments?
Yes, when the NSE or BSE declares a trading holiday, all core segments on that exchange, including Equity (EQ) and Equity Derivatives (F&O), remain closed for trading. There is no segment-wise trading on an official exchange holiday. Always refer to the official exchange holiday circular to plan trades and settlements accurately.
Thanks for the list. Happy Christmas and Advance Happy New Year!
You’re most welcome! Wishing you a Merry belated Christmas and a very Happy New Year in advance. Thanks for the warm wishes and for reading.
